Slow Slow Slow Slow Slow.....

[Guest]

Damn the jive a$$ hamster is slower than the old Webx hamster. I've been logged out of the forum while waiting to get in.

that is weird.

[Guest]

The actual page loading is much improved for me on FF but it is intermittently bad.

This now proves how poor the navigation in this Jive rubbish is compared to WebX.

Remember WebX?

Aaaaahh,  those were the days when participating in these forums used to be a pleasure not a pain.

[Guest]

very very slow. east coast usa. and even after the page looks loaded. the loading icon on a ff tab keeps spinning, like it's still trying to load ... something.

status bar reads...

"Waiting for wwwimages.adobe.com..."

yes,  wwwimages. one word.

Thanks alot for explaining that.

[Guest]

no problem graf.

[Bob_Peters]

Yep.  Slow again at unpredictable times and for unpredictable durations.

so

slow.

wow.

i

can't

even

pressing

on

the key

is.

OMG!

this

is

pretty

lame.

Move to Seattle. Lightning fast here. Rarely more than 2.5 seconds, usually much faster, to go from any page to another, post a message, etc.

I hardly wait more that 2-5 seconds for page to load from kicking in from email Notifications.

But once loaded up typing is normal. I use a 1 Mb upload/download DSL connection. But I am actually typing from a Airport connection (801.2n).

[john_cornicello__retired_]

Connection speed shouldn't affect the performance of the text editor, should it?

I'm a pretty fast typist, and I cannot get ahead of the editor as I type.

John,

I've seen slight performance enhancements in page loading and going from one forum to another, but the Reply Editor is still a significant bottleneck for me too.

[Phillip_M_Jones]

Its sounds as if there is problem with a key logger or some type of nasty on his system if he is on a PC.

Perhaps needs to use FirstAid Or Norton System Tools.

Or maybe even need to systems tools on Windows to Optimize the hard Drive. I now Windows use to have a problem with that and run slow as molasses.

<sigh> nevermind.

[Phillip_M_Jones]

I take being poked funny of all the time. It's odd other people can't take it. in any event I was seriously trying to help.

Wait a second there!  I wouldn't mind if someone poked fun at me, but ayone who would "poke me funny", would suffer serious physical consequences.  Harrumph!

I get that and pked fun as well.

First time I've known the message box fail to keep up with my typing. I'm very fast but it's not usually a problem - then I noticed the page was still loading although it looked done.

[Guest]

     topic page reload -  3 forums same behaviour -  is taking >10 sec right now in NE PA.

[Guest]

When the web crossing forums was working Page load was instantaneous using the back button was always instantaneous no matter how slow the system was now everything takes at least 10 seconds to load usually more. this really is annoying.

[Phillip_M_Jones]

South Central VA on 1mb DSL.

3 seconds or less from click of link in email notification to complete screen come up.

about 3 seconds or less for reply to come up

Yes, I understand how you feel.

It had been extremely slow, even for me, not by far the fastest typist in the world; but it has shown a notorious improvement lately, particularly today, when it's almost normal.

[Guest]

i was typing way ahead of what was appearing in the text box. it's running better now. but any click, and any keystroke, in any adobe forum at the time of that post was a dog.

[Bob_Peters]

I still find the responsiveness of the New and Improved forums to be about the same as the WebX forums.  Today I have to wait too much.

While many won't care for the UI on dpreview ( http://forums.dpreview.com/forums/forum.asp?forum=1039 ) the site is rarely slow.  Try it and you'll see what I mean.  By comparison, this forum is a snail.

I can the imagine that the number of users on DP Review is infinitesimal compared with here.

I can the imagine that the number of users on DP Review is

infinitesimal compared with here.

I don't know which is larger (I would have guessed dpreview), but it certainly isn't infinitesimal in comparison.

Best,

Christopher
