No, sometimes it is even slower.

Agree :-) with Baitress

vulcan

sorry if this annoys you,but mine has never been quicker, I wonder why ? .

I'd endorse the first opinion. I thought it was my PC but all other sites open normally.

Ethel

It was very slow for me the other day, but today it is as good as it ever is.

joto

It is always at the weekend when it gets as bad as this!

This is the slowest it has ever been - am left looking at a white screen for ages!!

Scorpiofach

I've never known it to be this painfully slow - maybe all of our brains are on a go-slow this weekend and it can't cope with all our pleas for help!

Slow and stately has its place, but maybe not where you're sitting waiting for an answer.

rrc

Very Very slow today.

Schutzengel

1955 - So am I. It's very irritating.

The slowness is mainly caused by those selfish sods ho insist in putting each question in seperate posts. This particularly bad at weekends when demand is at its highest.

"The slowness is mainly caused by those selfish sods ho insist in putting each question in seperate (sic) posts."

Not so. The number of posts that could be combined would have a very minor effect. The slowness is caused by the sheer number of database accesses, and in the main be a simple reflection of the number of concurrent users. Most of these users will not be posting at all, but simply viewing existing answers (as was the case with me this weekend).

I wasn't able to even get on for the last two days.. let alone endure the slowness!! However, today I got on first time I tried!

Tallulah!

Also, at the Weekend, the site's full of questions that could be just as easily be googled.

It is an Answerbank so people need to feel free to post their questions on here ;-) Also, Google is not the only search engine or the best. There are many + far better to not always use the same one anyhow- variety is the spice of life. Prefer Yahoo + Alta Vista as search engines. Hopefully today AB will be quicker + full of lovely posters ;-) Never forget to enjoy some sunshine or fresh air either, ciao for now, Bea :-)
