Access speed
« on: November 17, 2011, 10:25:44 »
Can someone explain to me why when accessing this forum here in the office everything is fine but when I access it at home the forum is very, very slow to react. I've had no other issues with any other forum at home, only this one.

You'll have to give me something more to go on, like:

  • when the US wakes up, it is busier on the forum -- and sometimes this can slow it down. At 07:00 in the morning, CET some automated maintenance jobs take place. What times do you use it from home?
  • what differences are there between the systems you use at home, vs work? Browser, computer, cookies settings, connection speed?

I access this forum from around 3 different computers, with different speed connection, with OS X, Windows and Safari, Chrome and IE... all are about the same.

I only log on from home in the evenings GMT.
My home PC has just crashed anyway so I'll be installing a new one at the weekend; we'll see if that makes any difference.
