This site is getting extremely hard to load, and on some days will not even allow you to read the posts.  Often you have to backdoor it and go another route, just to read it, and only half of it is there.  Other days it just spins, and spins, and eventually, you just shut it down and go somewhere else.

Someone really need to do something about this before it crashes completely.

    I get the "Connecting" spinning circle for maybe 6-8 seconds some time but it is almost never more than that.  I just guessed that it was with my innerweb provider.

Several folks have PM'ed me on it, and I got to thinking about what it was they are saying, so I cleared out the cache feature on my browser for the last four weeks.  It appears that might have been the problem, it has settled down now.

I have not had any particular problems loading the site.  These computers end up storing a lot of trash that can really slow them down.  I suspect that there are deeper things than merely clearing cache and cookies can solve, although that generally helps.  I am currently upgrading my Mac to the new operating system and doing it as a fresh install to hopefully clean out years of crap that I otherwise do not know how to get rid of.  This Windows 7 one am am using now to write this is much faster than the Mac, probably because it a had new, clean install of the operating system just a couple of months back.

It's been slower than normal for me for the last few days, on both my brand-new home computer and my archaic work computer.   Sometimes it loads in a jiffy, sometimes it takes many jiffies, occasionally even a kilojiffy or two.   It's still well worth the wait.

There's something wrong with some of the ads that display.  Win 7 gets excited about some of their "security certificates", whatever the he11 those may be.  Beyond that this site loads as fast as my bandwidth at the moment will permit.

Sporadic speed.  Ranges from .5 second to 20 sec to load, whether it's on the home page or specific topic, new or viewed before.  No commonality that I can discern yet. Always "waiting for bus conversions.com" appears in the progress window (bottom left corner of Firefox), so I know the outbound communication is OK.

I've seen sporadic issues with speed only the past two days or so.  Nothing as drastic as BCO states he is seeing.  All the pages load completely when they load.  I've not seen any security certificate errors, but certain browsers are more sensitive to things like missing intermediate certificates on the server side.

Logging onto this site is like watching paint dry ????

Although it is not the fastest site, the speed is usually acceptable.  I do get constant warnings about the certificate on my Android phone and this computer with Internet Explorer.
