Seems to take a lot longer to navigate the different sections of this message board. Anyone else experiencing that?

Yes ...

However, I think both you and I are routing through the same back-bone or something ...

My "previous" ISP just could not make it to the website. My "new" ISP makes it here but it takes roughly 5 to 10 seconds for pages to refresh/change ...

What we need it to get rid of all the frick'n porn sites, so we can get 90% of our bandwidth back!

Eh? What's that?.... you say there's porn on the Internet?


Well, anyway, I was just wondering if maybe was the accumulation of posts that is causing it.

have you tried optimising your MTU, RWIN, TTL and NDI settings, it'd help to open up your bandwidth a lil if you get the best settings

I have DSL, and use several tweaks as suggested at speedguide.net, and it has slowed for me also.

Porn sites?? How awful!! I need to take a look at these so I can warn the public what ain't good for 'em!!!

I would recommend that you run a tracert and see where the slowdown is.

It's possible that it's not the site at all, but one of the paths between you and it.

..MH,

Umm ....

"It's possible that it's not the site at all, but one of the paths between you and it"

That's what I was insinuating

Didn't think of running a traceroute however ...

Update ... 25 Frick'n hops to this site ... and it times out around the 17th hop.

So ... MH your site is working fine ... It's some switching-station between me and Texas!

Hey Zur,
Not "get rid of all the frick'n porn sites," just get rid of all the ones that suck.
Think about it, there's certainly quantity, but when it comes to quality it's few and far between =Þ

Anyway the net ain't as good as it used to be. Why, when I was a young 16-year-old lad I could get free porn off the net without a hassle. These days the net's gone commercial. Some things are still free on the net, but the quality is usually poor and the free stuff is hard to find anyhow.
I don't know why I even bother anymore

Your fellow conesseuir(?) of pornography,
-=TheReaper=-

P.S. The French spell funny

Isn't porn supposed to s.......lap me silly for almost saying that!! I'm with Zur on the mags, anyway - occasionally, they even had words!!!

Whatever it was causing the slowdown, it is better tonight. 25 hops?? Dang!!!!

Slow!
Tell me about it! The other day I was downloading some files. Instead of telling me how many minutes it was going to take, there was a calendar!

And I thought it was just lurkers camping out for the Openplane contest, when all those beautiful planes will appear.
