Forums are slow right now

[her209]

Not sure if this is the right forum, but seems to me that when I refresh or open a thread, its taking 5-10 seconds until its loading up.

Anyone else experiencing this?

Someone needs to feed the gerbil powering the server this forum is hosting on.
It's just taking forever to load forums.anandtech.com.

According to the log, there's about 4,000 people logged on and we're lagging? That's just lame.

Seems to have picked up in the last few minutes for me.

Better now, I guess the "level four diagnostic" finally ended.

 

[hclarkjr]

[sdifox]

[IndyColtsFan]

Is it just me, or are they really slow today as well?

If you guys do any more "updates" this place will crash for good.

 

[Evadman]

I keep getting DNS errors (hostname not found). On the 3rd or 4th try I get though.
