How fast does the site load for you?

[macky]

College internet is pretty good. The wiki has always been slow. A couple of days each month, it really comes to a point where I can't edit effectively because I have to submit each change multiple times before it goes through.

By the way, is the wiki backed up regularly?

It is normally fast for me, and that might be my connection but I do notice that the submitting process of a post or edit your can sometimes take a long time

 

[uberCuber]

It has definitely been getting much slower lately.

Lately I've noticed a significant extra amount of time in loading, specially a few days ago when it took about 8 secs to load the WC Bangkok thread.

And in general it's a bit slower than usual.

Most of the time it's normal, but the last 1-2 weeks or so (I think, not sure) I've somewhat frequently had annoying extra long load times. Then I actually do other stuff while waiting for SSC to load in the background. From Germany.

Very random. Sometimes it loads quickly, and sometimes I get a page not found error. It is usually somewhere in the middle(not fast, but not problematic)

I voted the first option (NC, USA), but uh... whats the difference between the first and last options? If its fine, doesnt that mean its fast?

For me, the site has slowed down for a few weeks now. A few days ago it took about twenty seconds to load the homepage, but as of right now, it seems to be okay.

Mine has always been fine. There are occasionally times when it's pretty slow, but those occurrences are very sporadic, though.

I'm from Albuquerque, New Mexico.

Thanks for the input. This helps a lot.

Yes, the entire site is backed up regularly.

I have accessed speedsolving from everywhere in Asia, Oceania and Europe and IF there is a fast connection then speedsolving is fast as well. But if there is a slow connection speedsolving can take a long time to load. I guess that means that the backend of speedsolving (database) is fast enough (for reading), but that the amount of data send is quite high. Especially all the "external webdata" can cause a lot of lag if the DNS is slow

The big problem is posting comments. I usually open about 10 tabs for speedsolving and while I am "Quick Replying" to one I often switch to another one before the post is finished....posting. The result is almost always that the post will be posted 2 times (of course I will remove 1 ASAP). If I don't use multiple tabs this doesn't happen, so I am not sure if this is a (javascript) error on speedsolving or a browser bug (using Google Chrome on Windows 7)

And sometimes I open several tabs and they just open on the first post of the last page (I have 40 posts per page configured, so for example post 121 on page 4). It SHOULD always jump to "first unread" (for example 153 on page 4). This behavior is unpredictable but consistent. Either all tabs will open on the first post of the last page, or all tabs will jump correctly to "first unread"
