Forum going slow?

[macker]

I've noticed over the last two days that the forum seems to be running very slow, sometimes when I click on a topic my browser times out and I have to refresh and wait for it to maybe bring me back to the page, (only happens here)
this has effected posting for me too as when I post a reply the page times out and when refreshed it goes back to the type your reply page, if you didn't know to check that your post had been added you could end up posting the same thing multiple times,

just wondering if anyone else is experiencing the same sort of issue and what the cause could be?

It's getting to be quite frustrating

At work here and it seems fine, considering internet access can be slow on this server.

No difficulties for me on PC at work or laptop at home

I have the same problem. But I believe UPC are the problem in my case. I can only access the forum through an app and only use this account and not the irishminis one. I've been intouch with UPC.

Maybe if users can post to this topic what broadband service provider they have and maybe rate the speed of the forum. 1 very poor and 5 been very good. Also if user can post a speed test result. On the speed test part use a server in Germany. I'll use this information to try trace down the issue.

Simon: Rate 1, UPC, download 60 and upload 5 meg.
