The last few days, the forum has been slow to load - seven to ten seconds. Cleared cookies , etc and it’s only this website I’m having problems with.
Agree! It is especially slow to re-edit a post.
This problem of slow loading corresponded to the time of last upgrade, I believe.
Go to meta.discourse.org and see if you have the same issue? The www.webpagetest.org site seems to suggest things running as usual speedwise, though that’s not what you are seeing.
Is it slow across all pages? or just pages with lots of images?
It’s only slow on the initial load to the home page. Perfectly fine after that.
@Harters do you see the same issue at the above link?
Everything seems to be running pretty normal- the CDN, the hosting server. If you know how to ping a site, please ping hungryonion.org and ping meta.discourse.org and let me know the results. thanks.
No, that loaded as quickly as every other site, I’ve visited.
Sorry, don’t know about pings.
I have no knowledge about how the technology works but could it be a factor that naf and I seem to be the ones having issues and we are both in Europe - potentially a long way from the server?

Tried a few pings on HO, same result.
Summary info:
HO - Approx round trip times in milli seconds - Min = 101ms, Max = 114ms, Ave = 105ms
Meta - Min = 163, Max = 189, Ave = 173
Hmmph. That is odd. That shows HO, initially responds quicker than the forum developer’s own site. That doesn’t tell how fast HO is delivering the site content to you, however.
