It's been horrible. I don't know what's wrong.

PF is slow


I've been experiencing periods of extreme slow downs for the past couple of days.

Probably not only PF. Sometimes it takes a lot of time here to find any url. But right now indeed PF seems faster.

It hasn't seemed slow to me at all. Maybe there's router maintenance being done somewhere.

No problems now, but hit some database errors and slowdowns last week. Greg knew about it at the time, and they seem to have been corrected.

One thing that I have noticed for a while is that if I click on a thread title or the "New Posts" link quickly, the little "loading" icon in Firefox just sits and spins. If I hold the mouse button for 1/2 second or so, the update usually loads up quite promptly. I anybody else getting this, and is there a fix for it? Other web-sites don't give me this trouble, so it shouldn't be on my end...

Several times yesterday, my connection timed out while loading pages on PF. No other sites were doing it to me, so it's not a problem on my end.
