I use Firefox 6.0.2 to access the site. After the recent change, it takes me 40-45 seconds for the site to begin rendering a page after clicking on the URL in my bookmarks (my bookmark goes direct to the Hardbaits forum). Similarly, if I read a post on Hardbaits and click on the shortcut at the bottom of the post to navigate back to the forum, it takes me another 20 seconds for the site to begin rendering the page.

I'm using a high speed DSL line and have no problems with other sites popping right up immediately. This problem does not seem to exist when using MS Explorer, but don't a lot of users go with Firefox?

How about a little optimization?

Well don't know if it's optimization or just serendipity, but the site began to render faster as of today. Keep it up! If you're to blame, Jerry, THANK YOU!

I gotta take it all back. I have a very fast internet connection and most sites flash up within one second of my click. Click on TU, or change forum, or click to re-render a forum after commenting on a post, and my wait for the site to respond is as much as ONE FULL MINUTE.

Talk about watching paint dry!

Does anyone else have this same problem? It has been several months now since the last change to TU and it is still the SLOWEST site to get a server response after my browser connects, compared to any of a hundred other sites I visit. It's getting to the point of being a buzz kill.

I have a fast desktop machine, a fast DSL line, and other sites flash up on my screen in less than 1 second. When I access TU, I may as well get up, go get a cup of coffee, and take a nap!

It doesn't happen to me all the time, but there are times when I will try to open a page at TU and it takes forever to load. If at all. Sometimes it's quicker to go back to my homepage and re-enter TU. I'm also on a fast DSL line.

I am on 3g cell line, and it has been blazing fast lately. Knock on wood.

Might be worth going back to an earlier version of FF or try V8. Firefox are really screwing things up for themselves, They got too big, too fast and cannot cope.

Nothing has changed for me. Once in a blue moon, while i`m looking around the gallery section, I notice a slow to load thing.

[saltshaker]

I got satellite internet. No problems here.

[MonteSS]

Been slow for me for a week or two. Now it is basically unusable. Takes a minute to load homepage and for each click of a link. I have high speed cable and tried IE, Google Chrome, and Firefox.

Regretfully, I still find the loading real slow compared to other web sites, which is a pity as there is so much to learn here - nevertheless the content is fascinating!

Thanks for the feedback, there was an issue back in November where we were being hammered by a chinese search engine. disallowing access to that search spider cleared up the lag, but obviously speed is arbitrary given by the varied experiences posted here.

I'm watching the server load and setup a notice to my cell when load times go over.
Thank you again for the feedback.

When I click the gallery tab, I get this message:
Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 134217728 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 393 bytes) in/home/tackleun/public_html/community/admin/applications_addon/ips/gallery/sources/classes/gallery/image.php on line 1489

[timbojrjr]

I just got the same message mark.

[redg8r]

Thank you, it was a sporadic issue, as there have been new images added today. anyway I've made some changes, let me know if it continues.

Jerry,
It worked fine for me this time, but my fish got smaller in the new version.
Hahaha

[mark poulson]

Jerry,
In this version, I can find my gallery photos through my profile.
Thanks.
