slow server(s) today ?

It has been really slow for me the past two days. I tried resetting my Internet connection, and it worked for like 5 minutes, and then slowed right back down again. I need my AT fix 🙁.
 
Must've been a router in between... if the servers here were fine and every other site earlier was fast as usual. I trace-routed and there was a 300ms ping along midway.
 
Yah the problem didn't exist anymore when I posted at 1am, but it's seemingly back to slowness right now. All other sites are loading fine.

Trace-route didn't reveal any significant (> 100ms) bottlenecks, but it did take 22 hops. :|

Same here. Was fine in the AM (12-3ish), but now it is a slow time again. It takes me 23 hops to get here :Q.

Zuni, maybe this can help. While I am within my ISP's private servers, my ping averages 10 or lower, but then it shoots up after I hit the internet servers. If you need more tracert's, let me know, and I can post more.

so slow today 🙁
 
It may not be Anandtech's servers, but what's just outside of them.

I can not find another site that is this slow. Taking up to a minute to load a page.
 
Whew, it took me 10 minutes just to post this, time-outs galore wether it be the subsciber server or not.
 
The site and its network is absolutely fine, www,forums,subscriber all running quick. If you are experiencing issues its somewhere on your network route to the servers. Try a trace to forums.anandtech.com that will tell you if you have timeouts or delays along the way. Nothing i can do from here as all that is under our control is running well.

Exactly. I could settle with the problem if it were other sites too, but only anandtech is getting slow for me. Lunckily its fast again, for now. Lets see how long it lasts.
