Why Is Ab So Slow This Morning ?

[mikey4444]

Its terribly slow today...every time I press "submit" or change to a new topic, it is taking so long.

I have a very fast connection these days, and don't experience this problem with any other site I use, principally the BBC News website.

[Baldric]

It's not.

[julia-mag]

It certainly is slow here, its driving me nuts

[mikey4444]

Apparently it is Baldric, for Julia and myself at least !

Perhaps you meant.... " Well it seems to be OK at my end" or something similar ?

If you can't be helpful with an answer, why bother at all ?

[Baldric]

You're really are incredibly offensive at times.

North Kent, BT infinity, Windows 10 & Chrome, no problems at all.

It also seems to have an echo!

It's not slow here, Mikey. I find some of the newspaper sites very slow, but AB is working as normal for me, and I don't have a great broadband service at the best of times.

[RATTER15]

All seems ok here mikey.

[retrocop]

No problems in Surrey.

Mine is fine, no problems at all.

[julia-mag]

I have closed my laptop down from FIREFOX and re-fired up on OPERA and that is working fine now for me.

More links to come Mikey but it will take me a while, obviously

Do you use Chrome, Mikey?

There seems to be a particular problem for some on that currently, when used with advert heavy sites.

N. Wales BT infinity. W10 Edge browser. Fine here. Slow or not mikey it didn't prevent you posting the same query in two categories in short order.

North Yorkshire, EE broadband, Windows 10, Chrome.......and AB is currently running at the speed of a dead snail

[Baldric]

'morning togo, are you referring to this section of The Site Rules?

///Avoid posting questions and answers more than once in the same or multiple categories.
They take up room from other posts and will be deleted ///

London, Sky broadband/wifi, Kindle browser and all is running smoothly!

[AB Editor]

A dead snail... being thrown over a hedge very fast, Mrs O?

[mikey4444]

Thanks Hoppy, for a very helpful reply...maybe it is due to CHROME after all.

Perhaps I should try another browser. I used IE for many years. I like CHROME and I only use FIREFOX for my emails, as I still have problems with CHROME and BY Yahoo.

Can any body recommend any other browsers that I could try ?

And thanks to Bathy ! Looks like it is a CHROME problem after all.

I might go back to IE after all !

i FIND RESTARTING MY LAPTOP HELPS WHEN THINGS ARE RUNNING SLOW.

Crap ;0/
... I'm not typing that again without caps

[AB Editor]

Local variation is often the cause - it's OK here today?
