Wiki almost dead?

Post by Jonathan »

Loading takes forever, sometimes figuratively but usually literally. Do others have this problem? If not, please handle the rest of the spam and see if I made a mistake.

I find that it's slow. I'm not sure about the "forever" part, but it's definately long loading.

I count timing out after a minute, which happens during most accesses, as forever.

Someone else will have to do half the work anyway because some annoying filter prevents me from removing the very content that triggers it.

Might be related to this 'connection', but most other web sites work fine.

It does seem to be loading exceptionally slowly. But the wiki and the forums are at the same location, so it must be something with mediawiki. Either that or under similar load conditions, the forums need less resources and so load faster.

Actually the forum is also slower than usual but not nearly as bad.
