Lag time

[94user]

Since the upgrade there has always, yes always been a 5 to 10 second lag before the pages load for me. Mostly 5 but ? I use the most current version of Firefox, don't have this lag anywhere else. I clear my cache and cookies regularly.  Anyone else have this problem ?

Yes at times it's sluggish. Methinks it may be time for a little fundraiser for a new server.

 I'm starting to get used to it.

I really like this idea, and was thinking about that myself just the other day. I paid for the Lifetime Benefactor because of the value TGO brings to me. I know there are a lot of benefactors here that feel the same way. I also know the non-benefactors are getting one helluva bargain.

I would like to see a donate a $1.00 (or whatever) option in the store, and then have a drive on TGO to get every single person to contribute.

Have moved several of my larger forums to digital ocean for hosting, it makes for VERY affordable hosting with great latency when configured correctly.

The lag issue definitely comes and goes.  I'll have to check out Digital Ocean and see what they have.

We were quoted a new server by our current hosting company recently and it was nearly double our monthly cost.  It hurt just seeing the number on screen.

This.  Had to place my mom in hospice and TGO has been a great distraction.

Sorry to hear that.  My wife and I are dealing with something similar, and this place is a great distraction.

Been webbing from two different hospitals for over two weeks myself (mom). They've both had quite good WiFi I must say.

 I don't know what was done, if anything, but everything is a lot faster today.
