You’re “Godfrey Daniel” right I like griping.....especially when my favoritest site in the whole world just sits their like jelly on a bun and goes to white screen for important events. WUWT? I should just go away and not say anything? Come on. Oh, wait, is the speed directly proportional to the amount donated? Yikes!

Perhaps there are some "global" things that could be done?

Disabling archives?
Disabling search?
Disabling graphics?
Disabling all but 10 threads?
Disabling all but and election thread?

Radical, but I remember early Drudge days when he was the only site up during Iraq war start, while others crashed, because he was trimmed to text only. I dunno, just suggestions. I miss you guys during a big event!!! Sniff-sniff!

You bet it is, Scoot! Now kick in a couple of Benjamins and you'll be faster than the French in retreat!
