Why is FR so slow the last few days?
It took 21 seconds to return to the thread after hitting the POST button. 30 seconds to bring up the browser window. My Status Bar on Safari says “Contacting on www.freerepublic.com” for a long period... then it switches to “Waiting for www.freerepublic.com” for another long period.
I don’t know, but hope it gets cleared up soon.
