schestowitz[TR2]"I have been on the site off and on all day and night for the last two days and it has been quick as all get out. I am in San Diego, connecting via WiFi, I've got 3 out of four bars in coverage. On my phone it is fast too.Jan 07 06:40
schestowitz[TR2]Hmmm, I'm trying on my phone and laptop and it takes about 12 seconds to bring up the webpage.Jan 07 06:40
schestowitz[TR2]Also when I click on any story, it is also about 12 seconds (such as this one) https://lxer.com/module/newswire/view/343656/index.html. I also tried it on my girlfriend's laptop and it took the same.Jan 07 06:40
schestowitz[TR2]The ping times are reasonable, but the website seems to have a long pause before it shows anything. does anyone else notice this?Jan 07 06:40
schestowitz[TR2]hmmm, i noticed it's fast to my computer through the mobile network, maybe there's something weird with my router or wifi config although I don't notice any issues on any other website...I'll try rebooting the router and playing around more.Jan 07 06:40
schestowitz[TR2]I rebooted my router and it's still 10 seconds. Every other website is fast, maybe there's an issue routing packets? Does anyone else notice a problem? I do notice it's an issue with SSL only. When i do curl https://lxer.com, it takes 10 seconds to respond, but when I do a curl http://lxer.com, then it responds very quickly telling me to use SSL.Jan 07 06:40
