Site and pages very slow to load

[Darius43]

For the past two days I have noticed that the IRM site and pages/topics are taking a long time to load - sometimes up to a minute.

This does not happen with other websites.

Has anyone else experienced this?

Yes.

EDIT: Seems back to normal now.

It was also happening for me, but seems back to normal now.

Yes, still an issue. Won't open on mobile at all, and when it does on this ("big" computer), some pictures won't open.

Really annoying now, lots of reloading and just hanging about

Sounds like a typical day in the Glen of Imaal

No actual outage reports. Maybe an ISP issue or related to all the DDOS issues?

If it is ISP, then it must be affecting a few, as mine's quite slow to make a connection to anything on IRM now.

Agreed. IRM is extremely slow, and has been for several days. It works eventually but I keep imagining a dial-up modem chirping away in the background.

In comparison, RMweb is running at normal speed.

?

Same here, only slow loading irm pages, other sites as normal

[Signal Post]

Same here and from looking at the previous posts it appears to affect forum members on both sides of the Irish sea, therefore I presume we are using different ISPs?

It can't be so many ISPs all having the same problem with IRM simultaneously....or can it?

Wasn't aware there were any Distributed Denial of Service things going on. Is it some group of hackers getting their practice session going?

[Tarabuses]

Just for completeness, I am having the same problem this week.

[jhb171achill]

For me, update is the desktop now loads it at reasonable (but not fast) pace; mobile now very bad loading it, but lightning fast with all other websites.

[Horsetan]

Even my mobile thinks IRM is stalling....

Would the good folks in IRM Towers be able to comment?

I expect they haven't got time to wait for the site to load!

It does seem to be having a good moment at present, for me at least. 

I was about to have to resort to actually doing some modelling rather than just writing about it.

90% of the time, it's normal for me, but it occasionally almost stops - just over the last few days.

I can detect no obvious pattern to the "slow times".

[derek]

My connection on the laptop kept asking me to reload, last night. Did my head in. It's fine tonight though

Christ! Just as I went to upload that comment, the thing stalled again

[Horsetan]

OK so, seems to have reverted to normal speed....for now.
