Lag time for forum graphics
Is it something on my end or are others also experiencing a slowdown in the forum's graphics (background, center section, colors, etc.). It's not constant, but when it happens, I click on my bookmark or an email notification and the first thing to show up is just the forum's text, and then the design elements blink into being.

Re: Lag time for forum graphics
I think this may be a browser issue. The cascade style sheets (and other formatting stuff) may take a bit of time to be read and processed. Until then, the basic underlying code is displayed... and there's little, if any, information in the text that's initially read.

It must be just a bit more than the browser because, for instance, it didn't happen just now when I came here. It's periodic and recent. Odd. Could well be my own internet connection, which I swear has been slowing down.

Re: Lag time for forum graphics
FWIW, I've seen that kind of issue occasionally but not in the last few months.

If no one is seeing it but me, then for sure, it's something on my end of things.

Re: Lag time for forum graphics
Everything is fine here. Could it be something that's running in the background on your computer?

Re: Lag time for forum graphics
Barbara -- have you tried another browser to access the site? if not, that's what I'd do just to eliminate that as an issue. You could also clear the browser cache and/or deinstall/reinstall and see if that makes any difference.

That's altogether possible. The only time I come to the forum without any software up and running is first thing in the morning, which is the case right now, and though the forum was typically slow to come up, I saw no plain text. Another major forum I belong to is extremely fast, so I doubt that part is a personal issue. Generally, what's running in the background is either Producer or my (mammoth) 64-bit music software.
Dick, the cache is automatically cleared when I close Firefox, so that can't be it. However, if I have a span of time in which the anomaly is consistent, I'll try Chrome. Good idea!

Re: Lag time for forum graphics
So I've been testing things here, and what I've found is that Chrome is definitely a faster browser, but I've also found that this forum is running very slowly. All other sites come up quickly. It could be that the forum is in need of housekeeping, but poor Mike has had more than enough on his plate over the past months. Hey, he and Rotchana must be here in the U.S!

Re: Lag time for forum graphics
While I wouldn't rule out you being the problem I am also seeing things loading slow today on the forum. Hard to tell if it is a server issue (overloaded or ??) or somewhere else in the broad expanse of the world of Ethernet where bits go all sorts of odd directions to get between point A and point B

Re: Lag time for forum graphics
If you have a firewall that logs incoming connection attempts, you will be amazed (frightened) by how many of them come FROM that area. You may be right though - it may get routed through there (actually, that is completely possible that some of your traffic does go through there. TCP packets can take some very strange paths depending on how the big routers are configured and what the loads are.

Just imagine all that information flying every which way, circumnavigating the globe, colliding, mushing, turning into something ungodly that will one day go nova. Do you suppose this is what the Maya foresaw?

Re: Lag time for forum graphics
You should see the path data takes when the program I am associated with (Sea Launch) is going to and from the ships during a launch. It involves data relay satellites, ground stations, phone lines and a number of other paths. On the other hand, I can sit at my desk at work and log into the unix computers on the ships when they are out on the equator for a launch just like they were right next to me
