That's a good idea. Here are two options for people experiencing slowness to try: OpenDNS ( instructions): 208.67.222.222 208.67.220.220 Google Public DNS ( instructions): 8.8.8.8 8.8.4.4

Hey thanks a lot. That cut down my wait to about 10 seconds per page - blazing by comparison to what I had before, but still the slowest site. Anyway I can live with this rate.

DNS = Chinese food flavor of the month club. AKA Dynamic Noodle Service.
OK, that was really bad. Did I mention I'm still overtired? Sorry but this is what happens. I even had a spooky 'Charles type' dream last night. It would take too long to explain though.

I'll have to try that later when I have more time. I didn't know how before.

Amie- were you guys working on the forum servers again?
The forums were down for at least 20 minutes not long ago....

We had a forecasted-to-be-1.5-minute-but-really-5-minute outage as we upgraded the ram on the server - was it at 3:14 or so?

Something like that, yeah. 3:22 was when I noticed.

Strange- it was much longer than that here. Must have had something to do with the caching!

I didn't notice until Ken whined to me via IM. You do realize this place is in our blood, Amie? We suffer without our fix!
