Abnormally long load times

[MagnusTheBrewer]

Has anyone else experienced unusually long load or refresh times on the forums? Starting late last night, I have experienced frequent load times of 30 seconds to a minute.

Absolutely. 1-2 minutes futzing about dynamic2.anandtech.com.

I wonder if it's related to the apparently hacked adserver issues they've been working on this morning.

Better now. Good job!
