MR pages are loading slow

[MACDRIVE]

I've finally figured out that it's not my Mac since all the other sites and forums I go to load much faster. Last night from 0306 in the morning until 0358, I could not get on at all. The address bar would start to load and then freeze.

What's really frustrating is when I'm in the middle of a post and this happens. . . . 😡

My gut feeling is that the MR server(s) can't keep up with the traffic. 😕

I think it's the upgrades that they were working on... maybe I'm wrong though.

Alright these are the three forums that I bounce back and forth on constantly. You guys click on each one and tell me which one loads the fastest :

Ok on a second try they all load about the same.

https://forums.macrumors.com/ pretty fast

http://www.bonnevilleclub.com/forum/ really fast

http://theoildrop.server101.com/forums/ubbthreads.php really slow

Probably was a temporary problem with the forums.

The pages are moving pretty fast tonight, or I should say this early morning.

It was either the adds or the high volume that was slowing things down before, I'm guessing.

It occasionally slows right down for me, but tonight it's being very snappy.

Arn, may I ask, you run the servers yourself don't you? Can you give us some info as to how many hamsters are in the wheel driving MacRumors etc...?
