The thread with this name that was closed with no explanation did serve a useful purpose, so I am opening a new one to replace it.

Speed is back to normal now, and if there was a shutdown, I wasn't here to witness it.

    I've got the WebX folks taking a look at it. Looks to me like one of the server boxes is running slower than the others.

    Yeah, most days opening even long threads will take less than 3 seconds, from "Click" to "loading complete."

    For the past couple weeks I'm not even close to that. Sometimes it's kind of reasonable (like, under 6-7 seconds), but I've seen a lot of times where it takes 15-30 seconds before the page even starts loading.

    It seems to have picked up this morning. The slowness was downright painful yesterday. Anyone know *why* it was so slow?

    What I've started doing is reading subscriptions in four different Firefox tabs. While I'm skimming through one thread, the next one is loading. That way I can minimise the wait, usually.
