Ever since the new front page has gone up, the site seems to be running painfully slowly! I thought it might have just been my gash modem connection, but even now at work where we have broadband its still taking 1-2 minutes to bring up each page!!! Anyone else having troubles?

Fine here? Anyone else?

Cheers for the feedback Mr Mulla, if anyone else is having problems I'll have a look into it.

Unlucky mate.

Im gonna chat to Drift about optimising my code, that might improve the speed a bit.

Having no problems here on a commercial 576kbps BT DSL pipe... No probs with 1Mb Telewest pipeage either? Pages load in an eye-blink...

Try doing a trace route to dnbforum.com... See where the problem is...

Below is what I'm getting, but we got dodgy firewalls a gwannin

C:\>tracert dnbforum.com

Tracing route to dnbforum.com [64.246.34.213]
over a maximum of 30 hops:

1 <10 ms <10 ms <10 ms KAYAK [192.168.0.1]
2 * * * Request timed out.
3 *

Try it!

18 hops from this box (uk) to dnbforum.com (remember its hosted in the usa!) 1992 should get the best results hehe.

10 pings from a *.nl box,

--- dnbforum.com ping statistics ---
10 packets transmitted, 10 packets received, 0% packet loss
round-trip min/avg/max = 127.5/137.5/160.8 ms

5 pings from my box (uk),

Ping statistics for 64.246.34.213:
Packets: Sent = 4, Received = 4, Lost = 0 (0% loss),
Approximate round trip times in milli-seconds:
Minimum = 140ms, Maximum = 156ms, Average = 144ms

boh :)

Small update, Drift just went through some of my code, he managed to optimise some of the SQL calls etc. So it should improve the speed of the frontpage a weee bit.

Bigups Driftah :)
