I guess we will need to see if a ton of other users join in on this now.
So far YOU are the only person to report this to me.

So far as I can tell the site and the servers are running fine.

A few people have seen a "Gateway Error" from time to time, but that is the only bug we are chasing after right now.

4:40 in the am.....works just fine now
If you don't mind.
Post something here WHEN you see a slowdown.
I want to use the timestamp of your post to check the servers and see if ANYTHING is going on at that moment that might be the cause.

If you go to load a page, and it just seems to hang.
RELOAD it and see if the problem vanishes.

it's the initial loading of the page

when you first click on to something, it takes a while for it to access the page data, but once you do that it seems okay. been that way the last 3 days, I leave a snowest tab up all day, and when I first try to navigate the page it is slow to load , I would say a good 20-30 seconds .. my speed is 9817kbps.

It has been doing it for a couple of days, badly, I notice when making a post and pushing the send button, it seems to lock the computer/site up, but if I let it sit for a minute or two it posts.
Thought it may be my computer, glad to see it was not.

Several people have written to me this morning reporting the following.

502 Gateway Error
504 Gateway Timeout


Are any of you seeing this?

I am not seeing it but I am not waiting when things hang, I refresh or back up and try again, then it seems to work. Strangely enough, I seem to notice it the most on posts with multiple pages.
