RC Slow as slow can be!

Addicted to bright lights
So is it just me or has RC become like surfing in mud?

Work or home it does not matter. Pages take forever to load now. To the point of being frustrating.
 
Just ran a test from Pingdom

"Your website is slower than 97% of all tested websites"
 
I agree it is very slow, that I thought I had needed to buy a new computer or call comcast that I have a speed problem. I was talking to a reefer from Boston and he was complaining as well. I think RC needs to upgrade a server.
 
yea it sucks
they need to get their crap together this is BS
Carrier pigeons would be faster

Maybe alot is run through flash? Adobe stopped supporting newer android phones? My comp has been slow or stopping on alot of things......Maybe Adobe related? I'm no comp wizard though.
 
In between pages load you could always take a little cat nap... jk I thought it was just my phone too.
 
It's RC's servers.....all other reef forum sites snap up no problem. And it's NOT your computer , I'm running an icore 7 chip with turbo boost, 16 gig ddr3 ram & solid state hard drives, and I still surf other forums while waiting for RC to load a single page.
 
I've been thinking this for a couple weeks but haven't really seen any mention of it. No matter what I use... office PC, home PC, phone, tablet... it's ridiculously slow, while other sites are just fine!
 
someone else put a thread up today with reference to how slow it is, i think they need to go back to their old search engine, its like a steam train as opposed to intercity!!!!! at least it gives me time to make a cuppa before the page loads!! post slow reply should be on the button below??
 
There's tons of threads in the feedback forum. The guys are working on the issues.
 
I think they have a Thread up about the performance in another section of the forum. Who knows maybe the owner of the site is tired and wants to get away...
