Site speed - LAVA's slowing down

[crelf]

Not really a bug per se, but has the LAVA site slowed down dramatically in the last week or so? I thought it was the link at my hotel, but it seems to take ages, irrespetive of my link speed. The banner seems to load okay (takes 4 - 5 seconds), but then the rest takes anywhere between 15 and 45 seconds.

I haven't noticed any significant lag. I'm browsing both from home (Comcast cable connection) and from work in WA state and the pages seem to load quickly.

It's fast for me. It might depend on the time of day. No idea. I haven't noticed this. Any others?

I had performance issues previously a month back but they disappeared when I turned off the snapshots. Maybe you're experiensing the same thing.

Hmm, I think Tomi is right. The snapshot tool slows down the site. Perhaps it's not so great after all.

I have noticed a slow down as well.

When LAVA loads I see most of the screen but there is about a one line gap at the top of the screen.

WHile I can still se the gap, nothing is active.

If I wait for the screen to "reset" the one line gap at the top disapears and the page is good to go.

I notice it most at work were they decided to try out a DSL connection to save money. (They will be fixing this).

I can see the same thing at home but there I have a 5 Meg fiber link so the delay is short.

I am pretty sure the delay was introduced when the LAVA store link was put in the top right corner of the screen.

BTW:

I use almost exclusively the "View new post" view, and my comments apply to that screen only.

Michael,

The last shift up I mentioned above seems to be gone and it SEEMS LAVA is a little faster.

Did you change something?

Yes, I disabled snapshots preview.

Well it has been "snappy" all day.

Thanks!
