NOTE: The EEVblog server will be down for a few hours tonight from 11pm AEST (40min from now).
Feel free to touch grass for a few hours.
Thanks.

It was never that slow for me, so can't really say. But its definitely fast now.

edit: saw "access denied" a few times when trying to load threads.

I answered noticeably faster here.  :-+
I told my friends I could teach them to be funny, but they all just laughed at me.

Until  a few days ago I had been having massive speed problems; pages were taking 10-60 seconds to load, as well as other problems, trying even my patience.

The forum is now as responsive as I can remember, and is a pleasure to use again.

Wow, I haven't had an issue for years. I would have said the forum was "quite fast" before. Pages took barely a second to load.

It does feel much faster. A couple of days back it was not loading at all!

I've had the occasional slow (10-15s) page load randomly in the last year(?), it came and went in a rather unpredictable way. Have not seen it yet after the change, but ticked the 'same' box anyway.
Keyboard error: Press F1 to continue.

i have had the occasional page not load correctly/completely in the past. CSS not loading?  Never bothered to investigate as refresh has always fixed the problem

Other than the brief outages from the past few days/weeks when you guys were working on something, the forum has always been responsive for me. Hard to say if it's noticeably faster now, but if I squint really hard it, maybe it's hair faster. :D

Then again I'm on a gigabit symmetrical fiber connection.
