EO slow to load?

I just log on in the morning - boil my two eggs for brekky and when explore-oz opens, my eggs are cooked perfectly - half runny and half hard :)

No problems for me

Cheers

Have to disagree Kerry, sorry.

As for being live and continuing to updated, that might have been the case years ago when the forum was very active and there were dozens of very regular daily users.

Now you are lucky to see 3 or 4 reply’s in a day, so there goes your theory of continually updating.

As for being able to add photos, it is hit and miss for me and at the moment I am unable to load a photo, it’s just too slow.

As for people saying it’s the type of computer or browser, well I can say it does not matter if it’s windows or apple, they still load far too slow compared to years ago when you would open the forum, get in instantly and same with any new forum post, now try to open a new post and just have to join the cue for it to open.

Same, there are literally 10's of millions of sites with dynamic loading that are fast.

Sure EO has a lot of information but that should have nothing to do with it.

Something else is causing extremely slow performance IMHO.

Kerry said "a lot more going on in the background than "other" static lightning fast websites,"

It does not matter much website you have a look at, you are only downloading one page. On the occasions that it takes a long time to download, it takes a long waiting time before things happen. When a response starts, the site loads quickly. You can observe this watching the bottom LH corner of your browser when you hit an enter button.

If you disagree with what I’ve said take it up with Michelle or David. It’s not my place to explain. I know the servers are top notch and the site is busy. Maybe a recent update or bug somewhere? Site is updated at midnight, and this has sometimes been known to cause delays. As for the forum - it’s never been the main focus of the site nor was it a burden on resources . Personally have not had issues recently with the site loading, but often have issues with unreliable bandwidth from Telstra. Can only speak from personal experience having been closely involved with EO in the past.
