Site is slow today
« on: October 23, 2006, 03:33:00 PM »
Anyone else notice that the pages are slower to load up today.   I'm on an 8MB connection and pages on other sites are loading up instantaneously, not so on 7 Days.
 
 Interesting to hear from Johnny if there is any reason for this.

nothing that I've noticed on our end that would be causing a slowdown, but I have noticed that access from anywhere in the city is kinda "pokey" today, something must be up.

That's very strange indeed, then.   Just hope it is a minor glitch.

It's a little faster now, but still not as fast as it normally is.

a speed test for a site must be initiated from the site you wish to test, otherwise the results can be skewed, not to mention any firewalling or Itrusion Prevention/Detection Systems in place that will skew the results.  
 
 Don't put too much faith in the "speed tests".  There are *many* variables that they don't account for.

OK - thanks for that John.  It's just strange why it's just this site that is slow today.
 
 Hopefully tomorrow it will be ok again.
