    Anyone else experiencing lag on loading forums?

    I get the hexus banner bar, then it hangs for ten minutes...happened twice yesterday evening, and once again this morning. I tried clearing the cache last night and thought I'd fixed it, but nope, back again today.

    Anyone else?

    speedy here.

    I sometimes have problems where my session seems to hang i have to open a new IE instance to get back, but i think that is IE on this machine rather than a Hexus problem.

    I've had the issue occasionally for the past day or 2 - it's fine now but I get the same issues ibm mentions in IE & Firefox across various machines on various networks. I suspect it could be a load balancing issue, but that's pure speculation

    I forgot to take a note of the status bar when it hung, but the address it seemed to have problem with was bs.something.something.

    And the answer isn't 'Go Crazy? Don't mind if I do!'

    It won't surprise you to hear that I load hundreds of pages from HEXUS a day. Can't say I've seen any noticeable slowdown, aside from occasional lag of a few seconds.
    PHP Code:
    $s = new signature();
    $s->sarcasm()->intellect()->font('Courier New')->display();

    Just got back home (After three weeks away). this is the first time i've used Hexus at home since the vB upgrade and i switched off sigs. I must say, it loads and renders a whole lot faster than it ever did before

    I'm on my uni's connection, so not that representitive of the average user. However, I have found that clearing the cache after the last load balancing issue certainly helped, might be worth a try?

    Otherwise, the only other thing I can think of is that it's taking a while to load the advert banner at the top, which I would guess is hosted on an external server?

    These forums are among the fastest I visit, some are not worth the hassle it's like being back on dialup (no offence to anyone whose spend 5 mins waiting for the page to load )
