Thread : Should Tom's Upgrade Their Hardware for the Forumz

The Forumz pages load very slowly compared to other sites. An interesting article I read recently points out how as a hard drive fills up, it uses bands further and further in towards the center of the disk, reducing transfer rates. Of course, this is only one thing that can happen. There might be increasing number of folks reading, or areas of a site could get consolidated onto one old server. Perhaps even there could be a prioritization given (dunno). In any case, it's too slow for me! |

Other sites load fast at the same moment Tom's is slow here. Do you find that Tom's Forumz pages usually load as fast as other sites? If so, I'd like to know.

Yeah, it seems like in the last week-two... it's brutal for me. Sometimes i just give up, after 45 seconds to a minute. Even when posting, or voting....it's getting to be a PITA. :x :x |

Yes, I have noticed is a little slow, but I feel it is still acceptable. However, these boards are pretty cool and intense with all the features. |

Let's not forget the amount of traffic at THG also helps make up the speed for which you access the site and information.

I found it a bit slow the last two weeks, even if not to the freezing point, but actualy these last few days it has been quite ok.

Does anybody think that it could be virus related?
