Has anyone else found that the forum is running slow and taking several seconds before a page loads properly?
It started a couple of days ago and it's the only site which is doing this, so I don't think it's my system which is at fault.

Thanks guys.

Strangely, the mobile version works fine on my phone on wifi through the same IP, but the desktop loads the page first and then jumps around whilst it loads the news column on the right.

I'll work on it.

You can turn off that column on the right.

I can only confirm that speed is fine from here. Have not noticed any slower displays.

I'm having that same thing happen.

And, like yours, it started a couple of days ago...

It seems to only be this site (no problems with speed elsewhere)

I have had slow problems here also. I have to close BiaB and start over. I believe my problem is with clicking. If I click once everything seem OK but if I click twice or more it takes forever to have a page change. This only happens on this site. YMMV


I haven't lost all of my marbles but there is a small hole in the bag someplace!

I'm wondering if this is a browser problem (instead of a PG forum problem)...

I'm using Firefox. Version - 88.0.1 (64-bit).


Are those seeing slowdowns using the same???

Blame Covid. That has worked for EVERYTHING that has been wrong for the last year.

On a serious note, whoever said to clear the cookie from this site was likely on the right path.

You know you can do it quickly, right? Click the lock on the far right of the address bar. click cookies, then remove it. You'll have to log in again the next visit, but it might help.

Same here, however Dan is using Chrome so that may eliminate the browser being the problem.

When you open the home page, the page displays as normal, but then the site continues to run some script in the background and until this has loaded you can't move on to a new page, hence the delay. Using the "Esc" key to kill this script allows you to move on straight away. Looks to me like a problem with the site.

I doubt it was Covid as I have masks on both my modem and router wink

I did that but no luck. So far by clicking once has worked the last couple of days.

An afterthought I wonder if PGM servers are getting attacked?

BUT - did you get them vaccinated? A virus is a virus, after all... It may need an SQL injection.

Also, if the PG servers were under attack, that means the issue would be at the sending side and we would ALL see the same issue.
