    My iPad w/ Safari on Wi-Fi is always a little slow with the occasional page errors every night.

    If I use my FiOS Fiber (150 Meg Up and Down) wired PC I have no issues at all anytime of the day.

    Interesting. I just tried the same setup and am getting very fast load times. Even after clearing cache to make sure I get all new files each time.

    Then again I have a 50MB connection and have M/A hard coded into my Local Hosts file to save DNS time.

    Who is your internet service provider Erik?

    Doesn't that describe the preponderance of M/A inmates?

    Erick,

    I think your issue is local.

    I just ran a website check. This checks how long it takes for the basic functions to start when one requests a page.

    Please visit Online Visual Traceroute This will trace the route your connection takes to the server. If you send me a screen shot of the bottom section where the route is shown hop by hop with IP addresses. I'll take a look and see if that has any connection to the issues you speak about.

    Erik, lives in the same Northwest area of Denver/Boulder that I do. My response time has been pretty good to date, comcast/xfinity on my iMac. with Firefox.

    Noted a bit of a lag when posting this AM, perhaps a disk balance issue on the server?

    One thing...the ads on initial login have gradually increased to the point of actual annoyance. I use Dashlane to populate login credentials and it waits until the full page has loaded before doing so. A couple of years ago, it would complete in ~0.5 seconds. Now it takes 6-10 seconds, waiting for all of the peripheral "stuff" to load. I realize you have to make a living, but is there a limit? Maybe I just need a new computer and more local bandwidth.

    Fixed!

    I think.

    Thanks to someone being helpful I was able to find the bit of old code that was slowing things down.

    They reported faster response times. I have some feelers out to others that reported the issue as well.
