buzz board slow for anyone else?

Same as Sizz...but not that long here, running cable. But it still takes long enough to load pages for me to go to another window and peruse another site.
 
Ahh, it's is finally faster for me as well....I'm on 6 mbps cable and it was slow with the laptop and my brand new speed machine, so I figured it was server problems. did y'all do anything, as in add bandwidth?
 
I was having the same problem here. At one point I couldnt load it from regular browser it just bring a search result for the site. The I tried to login through AOL and it loaded. I thought I was being banned there for minute, I thought how could that be I been good not around so much but good!
 
Whatever it is, it's just about got to do with the hosting environment and not the site software. I'm thinking the database server is separate from the web server (on different computers) and the database server is being shared with a bunch of other sites, likely "bloggers". That or the network connecting the two is saturated at times, resulting in the very high latency everyone's talking about. I have noticed some delays in pages starting to be delivered, but not in the actual delivery once initiated. That second aspect may well be due to my limited-bandwidth connection.

I think it was either Christmas eve, or its eve, when I was at a friend's house with my laptop to fetch several hundred megabytes of source code. The stuff eventually ended up coming in at 500 KB/s average, but his Roadrunner Cable connection was so saturated elsewhere that the entire process was "excruciatingly" slow. High latency sucks, but it actually sucks worse when there's high bandwidth involved!
 
Hey gang,

I have been very frustrated lately and voiced that to the server. They have moved other sites for us (I believe) so that we are back to speed (I hope). Our web people are really great and try very hard to keep us all pleased.I hope that we are good again for a while. /forum/images/graemlins/wink.gif
 
I've got DSL and I noticed a slowing too. I thought things were wrong out here. Yeah, that was annoying. I found myself browsing the ___site more often.

And Master Blaster's sweet site too. /forum/images/graemlins/grin.gif

The directory where graphics files & other attachments are stored is probably pretty good sized by now.

I was looking back thru the Treehouse Project thread from May, 2003, and can't seem to access any of the pics. Could these files have been compressed or otherwise made less bulky? Here's one that I am "Forbidden" to access. Can anybody else view this pic? http://www.treebuzz.com/forum/images/upload/5602-Treehouse2%20036web%20Greg.jpg

My Grand daddy would say " you're too big for your britches ?
This site has been running slow for a while , so I've been skipping by , to the much quicker sites like " cbssportsline."
Well I've lost all my playoff games so < I guess I'll just pull up a couch and wait for these pages to load so I can type something stupid. It's tough when your loaded watching something get loaded. Ya know , Like the Devils ! Slow , but you still watch...cause your a die hard fan.
 
Slow ain't the word.........I hear ya Riggs, I have been parking my butt with my buddy Darin and his lil Pixie friends over at ArboristSite, it's an awesome site.........! /forum/images/graemlins/smirk.gif
