Yesterday and today have been much worse that usual for me. I have to reload the page a few times to get it to load.

Hi Everyone,

Mocky, thanks for linking me here. I've been away for 2 weeks, and was told the performance issues here had been fixed. I will escalate things to our tech team and ensure some eyes are placed on this ASAP.

Can you all help me with some specifics please: Type of browser, operating system, and who is your internet provider, along with where you're located. I'm trying to find some commonalities, or narrow the search a bit, so the tech guys aren't hunting for a needle in a haystack.

Personally, using OS X Lion, and Safari 5, I don't have issues from here in Canuckistan.

Have any of you ever used the firefox plugin firebug? The waterfall it generates could also help us to pinpoint the issue here on S2KI. Is anyone willing/able to assist here as well?

cheers,
robb

Those of you who are able, can you please tracert s2ki.com and paste, or PM me the results? Trying to see if the issue lies at the provider level. Thanks to anyone who is able to assist.

You guys have a rogue script or something running, might even be one of the 9 or so third-party trackers/bugs/counters/advertising things running on this page. I say this because I've never seen any of the reported slowness on any platform or browser at any time in the past few months. Of course I'm running adblock, no script and ghostery on Windows/Firefox or their OS X/Safari equivalents. I have a huge pipe to the net as well but I'm reasonably sure this isn't a bandwidth issue. Ping times and trace routes are well below the threshold that would cause page loading problems unless something's jacking people's browsers that I just don't allow to run; well at least until it hits whatever machine that's masking/blocking pings.

There are too many external script calls (12), too many external CSS files (8), and too many images being called on each page. I suspect that my aggressive blocking of such web cruft is what keeps my experience happy.
