The other day I was unable to get onto the site for a few hours. Since then it seems very slow to open the forums page. You haven't broken or bent anything have you Jim?

I've noticed a significant slow down in loading pages since a couple of days...

Hi Jim

Thanks for the link - it may explain why we've had so much trouble at work!

As for me accessing Armorama from home - no problem at all. :-)

All the best

You shouldn't be seeing an issue in Florida. The server is in Atlanta. This would have to be a slowdown on your ISP connection I would imagine. Keep in mind though Armorama is a load-heavy site. Average homepages are around 100kb and I think we are more like 250kb. I need to go on a diet.

Really.

Jim
