Slow, even when compared to more complex sites like Amazon.com ect. Must admit that I have a slow connection atm. but this is one of the slowest sites that I frequently visit on my current connection. I also get login issues where I keep getting bounced and have to refresh several times to get in. And there's the posting issue mentioned by others. Oh, and this site regularly crashes Safari on my phone. It's the only site that I have visited that does...

Need to get a faster connection I guess...
 
I'm visiting from Belgium. The site has been kind of slow most of the time, but there are times it's quite fast, which is rare though.
 
I voted "As of late it has been slow, but before was fast." I'm in Canada. I remember it started a while back when there was a big update to the site.

I loaded the web site in Chrome without anything cached. The results below show three attempts at loading each page with the total number of requests required to load the content on each page. You can clearly see the improved performance on the second and third attempts when the data has been cached.

I've no idea if this is faster or slower than before. I'm routing through TPG in Melbourne, Australia.
