Site Slowness
 

Maybe it's just me, but there is something going on on this site, and I think it's one of the ads.

Something causes my browser to come to a standstill if I have more than two tabs open with an audiforums.com page. Other sites I can have like 10 pages open, but this one kills me if I have more than one open at a time.

I don't have this issue on other forums. The only other site that does this to me is MySpace where people all kids of graphics and crap.

Anyone know what is causing this? Anyone else notice this problem?

maybe it's time for new glasses. my site is fine.

roger that. im good to go as well. (crossing fingers)
I'll keep an eye on it though.

man remember around last year sometime when the site was CONSTANTLY
bogging down due to server issues.. what a nightmare.

Must be how FireFox is handling some of the adds on my laptop... But if I open two threads or more in different tabs, and go to reply to one, I can type for 5-10 seconds before the first letter shows up.

This is the slowest site I visit, and its 100X worse if you try to access it from a mobile. Dunno exactly what it is.

I do know that you can tweak firefox and make it load pages faster...


1.Type "about:config" into the address bar and hit return. Scroll down and look for the following entries:

network.http.pipelining
network.http.proxy.pipelining
network.http.pipelining.maxrequests

Normally the browser will make one request to a web page at a time. When you enable pipelining it will make several at once, which really speeds up page loading.

2. Alter the entries as follows:

Set "network.http.pipelining" to "true"
Set "network.http.proxy.pipelining" to "true"
Set "network.http.pipelining.maxrequests" to some number like 30. This means it will make 30 requests at once.

3. Lastly right-click anywhere and select New-> Integer. Name it "nglayout.initialpaint.delay" and set its value to "0". This value is the amount of time the browser waits before it acts on information it receives.

also dl abp adblock which is an extension to FF.
