I just tried the same. Logout, load pages. All pretty good. Logged in, load pages, about the same. So nothing abnormal from here.
Enjoy,
Paul

Hi all,
I did some tests from way down here in Tasmania.
1: initial Page loads fairly quick similar to original.
2: while still logged out, forum pages / posts etc. fairly quick similar to original.
3: login takes anywhere from half a minute to a minute.
4:: while logged in, forum pages / posts etc. takes anywhere from half a minute to a minute.
Tried all variations as well, like accepting cookies/ deleting cookies (not that I thought that would matter) just added for more context.
kind regards,

Yes, in its current configuration the forum interweaves routine maintenance tasks with user requests, which does make for poor performance at times. I will be changing this today to ensure all maintenance tasks are done independent of user requests. The current configuration is the default for the board software.

Only to certain IP addresses.

I agree it is slow at times, but I'm working on some performance tweaks. I personally haven't seen anything comparable to a DDoS attack, but YMMV...

New forum loaded as quick for me as the old one. My sincere gratitude to Freddie for hosting this. It would have been a real shame if so much discussion had been lost.
Steve can rest easy now. Thanks gents.

Hi all,
I did some tests from way down here in Poole Dorset UK
1: initial Page loads fairly quick similar to original.
2: while still logged out, forum pages / posts etc. fairly quick similar to original.
3: login takes anywhere from 15-20 seconds.
4: while logged in, forum pages / posts etc. takes anywhere from half a minute to a minute.
Tried all variations as well, like accepting cookies/ deleting cookies (not that I thought that would matter) just added for more context.
Just for info I did not have this delay on Steve's server. I noticed this delay on Saturday when the change had started.
kind regards,

Everything pretty speedy for me - logout, login, posting etc, no problems at all. Wonder if it's a browser issue? I'm using Chrome.

It may be browser related...
I use Firefox latest build...very slow load...Tried Edge...very slow load...Waterfox(old Firefox 57 version)...page loads very slow.
Don't have Chrome.
As a side note....Hello Steve!!

Hi Steve & All,
to me it looks like it is not browser related... because I normally use Firefox so I tried Chrome and the pages are still very slow to open.
I even tried it on my Nokia 8 Mobile phone, using chrome and it is still slow to open the page and still the same using the mobile phone network three.

I've tried it on Edge, Chrome, Vivaldi, Brave and Opera, all extremely slow.

I think it sounds like a routing problem. Because some of us have problems and some don't.

The beteljuice has no obvious problems using ye olde XP and out-of-date FF ('remember me' enabled)
... and of course many, many thanks for rescuing such a wealth of information
