Are we ( PennyClick and I) the only ones experiencing very slow draw time for images on DPC? Since it's both of us, it's not our machines. Is the site being slow, or do we have some other issue? Other sites seem to be loading at a nominal speed...

I also experienced this.

Hasn't happened for a few months I think.

I had noticed it as well, but I have recently had issues with my cable connection running at 300-400 Kbps when I should be getting at least 7Mbps, so I figured it was the ISP.

No, you're not the only one. It started slowing down for me late evening yesterday. Glad I'm not the only one experiencing it at the moment because it also eliminates my connection.

I lost my internet for 5 days after Irene so I also thought there were still some issues being worked out.

Seems to have slowed down for me lately also.

Yeah, same here certainly a lot slower.

Yup -- thought it was my lousy internet connection. I had one picture that never really loaded.

ouch. Just tried voting -- way too slow to vote this morning.

While commenting Free Studies yesterday, I kept having to refresh the page (sometimes several times) in order for images to load. Same with some forums.

I had to abandon voting last night (US day time) because it was impossibly slow. Not my internet as other sites are OK.

I just did a test upload and it seems fine for me.

I voted the Free Study yesterday, and it was moving like molasses in January at times. Crazy slow. Other sites, on other tabs in the same browser window loaded snappily, so definitely the DPC servers.

Glad to know that it is not just me. Makes voting the free study more of a task than usual.

Whatever it was, it seems to be fine now, thank heavens.

yes it eased up in time for me to vote on motion...didn't have my 20% in...
09/06/2011 10:24:52 PM · #18
Glad to see it wasn't just me. I thought I must have exceeded my internet allowance. It's okay for me too now.
