Does the forum always slow down around this time (1am-ish) for you?

So does it?

Maybe the servers run a backup script or something? Every night around this time, the forum servers run either very slowly or I get DNS errors.

Then everything goes back to normal.

That's because you live in the time zone of the Immortals.

I'm starting to notice the pattern of late afternoon issues again, inability to access the site at all and slow loading pages when I can log on.

I just had the same problem.

Maybe the AT server host has a dumb landlord too. ;)

Probably related to high traffic here on this forum. This problem will go away if you are a subscriber :)

It does not. It only lasts for about 4 or 5 minutes for me.

It seems to slow down whenever Yakko and the other nefs are upping their post counts.

Blame it on them.
