Does Anyone Else Think DW Has Been Glacially Slow Lately?

For the last three days or so, it's been taking forever to load what I've just requested, whether it's my Reading List, a Post page, someone else's journal, or whatever.

I haven't noticed any particular lag recently. It may take a couple of seconds for something to load, but that's not unusual just about anywhere for me.

rroselavy is the only other person so far who's seeing the same thing; maybe whatever-it-is is limited to the East Coast.

I did notice a weird bug two days ago where I couldn't preview a post that was over 2k long (and since I was trying to preview a big bang fic... Haha), but that fixed itself and other than that, DW's been pretty standard for me.

...And now that I've been testing stuff, huh. My reading pops up instantly, but when I go to my own/writing journal page there is a noticeable lag of three or more seconds in comparison. Which isn't forever, but yeah.

rroselavy is having the same issue; maybe it's limited to the U.S. East Coast.

I've not noticed anything out of the usual dear :(

[chomiji]

It's happening to rroselavy as well, so maybe it has something to do with how users on the U.S. East Coast get to DW.

[scribblemoose]

It's been fine for me.

[chomiji]

rroselavy suggests the possibility that it's something happening to U.S East Coast users.

[rroselavy]

Yes, it's been hanging something terrible for me. East Coast thing?

[chomiji]

There's a thought! Yes, given those who have responded so far, that makes sense! Hmm, wonder what's up on our path to DW's servers.

Er, I haven't had any problem, so I'm not sure it is (or was) an East Coast thing.

[chomiji]

LOL ... thus it goes with a sample size so small!
