I am experiencing slowness on the Forum from time to time.
Other sites are normal but sometimes up to 90secs to refresh.
Anybody else

Isn't that what happens when you retire Bob, things go a lot slower :)

Mines rocket fast at the moment.

There may be a slight delay when people are downloading the manuals though but with the upgraded ram we should be flying.

Might be a back up taking place too. Ive noticed a lot of people are watching 4wd Pro Tips recently too which is sucking up some memory.

Let me know if it happens again and I'll run some tests Bob.

Most of the time it is quite OK but seems at times the Handbrake has been pulled on.
As you say probably when downloads are taking place.

Not too bad my way Bob, I have seen it faster but its fine.

EDIT: I'll take that back, just hang on me and is taking a while when I hit whats new

Just read your Post and hit whats new and then went into Google News and brought up a Article before the New Posts were displayed.
Seems to be intermitant

The hosts might be doing a back up as we speak as they leave at 5pm so they might just press the copy/paste and walk out the door....LMAO

I logged on about 5 minutes ago and it was glacially slow. It only loaded up in the basic mode (is it html mode??). So i closed firefox and reopened it straight away and now its running nice and quick:)

Thats on wireless broadband

Holy crap...lol.

I just got an email from our provider wanting me to upgrade again. Apparently this year we have smashed our usage yet again and hit 250gb of data usage last month alone.

I just found the problem....90% of it is the 4WD Pro Tips videos. I have an idea on how to fix this so give us some time and all should be good again!

Yeh put the 4WD Pro Tips in a forum sponsors only section along with the manuals, that will solve a lot of problems :):):)

No mate, I'm still waiting on a reply from some people. The next upgrade is $530 a month which is madness...

If its going to cost that much I would get rid of the 4WD Tips

I'm just seeing if I can host them on Youtube, embed them on my pages with a private link on this site only. Just getting approval first as it would fix everything!
