Remember that Florida is based on a sample of 46 - Got to be careful reading too much into it.
I'm afraid I don't know the ins and outs of server routing to answer your question adequately.

Not a problem - have to say that I'm pretty astounded by the difference. I wonder if it generalizes to other sites?
Thank you SJ for trying to help with this problem. Just for your info I just loaded the 2 high traffic threads I tried earlier today and it took 17 secs for one and 14 secs for the other to load. It is 4pm my time. By 7pm pages will load even slower. Just throwing that in. Fingers and toes are crossed that you can do something to at least cut those times in half.
tm - please, give a link to these threads and i will time them loading. i have no problems tonight .....
xp pro - ie8 - verizon wireless
xp pro - ie8 - verizon wireless
the reo lounge 15 secs
prevets 5 secs
reo lounge on my second try 12 secs
The Reo Lounge has 5028 pages and the Prevet thread has 1365 pages. I don't know if the number of pages makes the difference but it seems to me that it would and your test may have proved that.
don't think so - snails is at 150k and loads fine for me. plus, prevets took forever to load for you. there must be something else going on .....
and don't forget, i probably have one of the worst connections ...
verizon just hiccuped but i never reach over o.5 mb/s ..... sigh

^^ wow, I just clocked that one at almost 30 seconds (or thereabouts). In general, my load times are well under the 8-9 secs that roly stated as normal, but after clicking that I now understand what you guys are talking about 
I'm lost when it comes to "Clocking" I just know fast and slow! It's almost 5:00 am my time and my pages seem to be loading faster. Could the slowness I experience be just a "Heavy Traffic" problem?

SJ, thanks for taking a look at the load times and and looking at ways to optimize the forum!

I do that about once every week or two, doesn't everybody?
Don't want to come across like a total grinch: I love the forum and appreciate the work mods and owners put into it!
Slow loading is a smallish price to pay, I guess.
OK folks we are just about to start a new programme of upgrades, this time focussed on page load speed. We might be able to get 25% off it so we're looking forward to seeing the results.
If you can write down what your current speeds are it will help us later on:
- Flush all browser data except passwords
- Close browser
- Open browser
- Go to ECF front page - time it for the main part of the page to open [not all the other stuff ]
- Then go to this thread and time how long it takes to open so you can see the top post
- Then go to a monster thread like the 'Response on threads' one where every ECF member has posted eight times a day for the past two years, and time that to the first post being visible please.
We'll do something every week for the next three or four weeks and see what the result is.
If anyone wants help speeding up their browser, PC or network I'm going to open a thread for that purpose.

The contacts page loads very quickly but majority of the other pages don't load for at least 8 seconds. 8 seconds doesn't seem like it should be the norm. I was trying to catch up tonight on my subscriptions but had to stop because the pages were loading so slowly.
It's really frustrating. Thank you for looking into this problem
will do, roly! but already i know the forum is much slower tonight for me than last night!
