Help Lag issues on the forum.

[I Remember Bluey]

Any one else finding the entire site as slow as, it's been like it for a few days now, especially when a thread you click on is loading a new picture like the Photoshop thread.

I have no problems with other sites I go to, including the newspapers which have plenty of pictures.

Which device(s)? Operating system and version? Which browser(s)? Is everything updated to the latest?

Pc: Win 10 - Chrome - Updated: Yes.

Been the same for the last 3 days, same this morning but about an hour ago it came good, so keeping fingers crossed it stays that way.

When it happens, how long does it happen for?

We cannot find any flags or alerts at the server end that there is anything wrong. I am on Win 10 with Chrome and Opera running and I also occasionally get short spikes of lag to BF. To my mind it's an ISP thing or a Chrome thing.

If you have another browser loaded, open up BF in that browser when you get lag on Chrome and see if the lag happens on both browsers.

It only took a couple of seconds to load up for me so I don't know what I can do.

TechFerret - Got any thoughts on how to help find the issue? Trace route or something like that to see where the lag is?
