Why is this website so slow when it loads?
Great forum. Really. Great resource that has helped my during my rebuild.
But what the hell guys?! It's a message board! No matter what computer I'm on this forum hangs or takes a while to load when trying to view the index/forums.
I was going to contribute some $$ but not if I'm going to get frustrated every time I try to get on.

Need more information.
Would this happen to be where you see the top section (LS1Tech logo and navigation bar) load but everything below that isn't loaded until X seconds later?
If so, when did this start and how long of a delay is occurring? What browser are you using?

This happens with IE8 (WinXP), IE9(WinUltimate), and Firefox. All my rigs at home are hardwired to the internet. The one's outside of home, some are wifi, some are hardwired.
But today around 6pm EST it was hanging bigtime. Took about 2 minutes for the forum to appear.

I've been seeing this for a while now (maybe 1-2 weeks or so?). I figured it was just a bug that would be fixed shortly.

I'm in the same boat. I know for a fact it's not my internet because it can handle playing halo pretty smoothly. If you play halo then you know that it sucks some massive bandwidth. I think the speed of the site has to do with how many people are trying to connect to it at once.

this is still a problem top of the page loads then it takes forever for the rest to load I never have this on the other 2 forums I belong to and I can watch streaming HD video so I'd say my internet conection is plenty fast and so is my computer intel I3, 4gb of ram... this is my only complaint of this site.

Same issue for me, I have the highest speed internet att u-verse sells, some sig pics only load 1/2 way on chrome, I tired IE and FF same issue too. As I type this @ 6:30am on a Saturday, using chrome, this page will not fully load and the the icon is still spinning in my tool bar...FWIW.

Sounds like you have modified Chrome. I would suggest disabling the extensions/add-ons and trying again. I don't have any issue with Chrome or Firefox and it doesn't appear that others are at this time. Thus it sounds like a local issue with your setup.
