I've been using Firefox for many years now, and I've never heard of Avast Webrep before. Just looks like "bloat-ware" to me.

Just a heads up - restarted the server, it had been a while and we're sending out a mail out right now so it may be a little bumpy over the next few minutes while things level out.
I noticed.
A normal response earlier today.
Around Midday DIYaudio became very slow.
This continued for quite a few minutes and pages.
Then suddenly nothing.
No Email either.

Server currently having issues. Christmas mailout in progress + Liquidweb restarted a cpu hogging backup agent in the middle of the mailout + lots of traffic = CPU traffic Jam. Have paused the mailout and taking all action to alleviate CPU stress.
this post has taken me 24 minutes to start typing.
Some short while before 1259hrs the site slowed down.
And virtually stopped around 1215hrs.

Must be really bad.
My post that I tried to place @ 1259hrs and finally managed to post ~ 1324hrs has got lost.
The server seemed to go on a go slow from just before 1259hrs and came to a stop around 1315hrs.

I've noticed problems uploading attachments lately. But I'm not sure if it is a problem with the forum or with the latest version of firefox....
Attachment shows what it was saying whilst it waited for a minute or two before continuing. Ironically this attachment had no performance issues at all..

Must admit I still see sudden unexplained slowdowns, usually late afternoon early evening UK time. There seems no pattern to the problem but I have confirmed that when it happens it is not PC specific as I tried another at the same time.
Interesting. I'm with BT, out of curiosity what are you two on ? Wonder if there could be any related issue there.
I am now on a university link via microwave dishes that regularly achieves 21Mbits to 27Mbits per second.
BT have no business through me any more, not even my landline, which they rented out to an isp at extortionate rates.
They have fleeced me long enough.

That's an unknown then ? The university might perhaps still connect via BT ultimately.
Its becoming such an annoying issue that I would like to find the reason why it happens. Around 1pm today and it took me three minutes to get back into the site. Just a spinning globe and white screen. I kept retrying and retrying and then suddenly all OK again. When this happened the other day I had another PC on at the same time and confirmed that was the same too. No access to diyAudio yet everything else OK. I've no issue with upload and download speeds these coming in at around 9 and 37mbs respectively.

Hello Mooly, may I suggest that you try different internet browsers when the diyAudio site behaves poorly? It will provide additional insight for the debug team ("more data is more better!"). You may even discover, as I did, that one of the other browsers is so much faster on diyAudio than the others, that I didn't really mind using a different browser. In exchange for the speed. I tried MSIE, Opera, Chrome, and Firefox. -MGJ
Hi Mark,
well I'm on IE11 mainly (W7x64) but have the same issue with IE9 on Vista. If I'm honest I don't really want to install other browsers simply because experience has shown that keeping stuff all Microsoft by and large avoids many issues as new platforms and updates come along. It all works well together.
Normally anything clickable on here takes around 1 second to action (1 second as in saying aloud "a thousand and one" which is a good mental approximation to second 😀)
Appreciate the comments though, and I can see your logic.
