Been going on for a few days now. Drudge has also been hacked since yesterday. Won’t let me in, tells me to turn off my adblocker.

Not only “slow”, per se; but seemingly “stuck” somehow. The latest thread that comes up on my screen was posted over an hour ago. Are the Freepers all taking Sunday afternoon naps?

Very slow and has been for about a week.

[Pollard]

over a full minute to get to this Post page. Yeah, I’d say it’s slow.

There was an earlier thread today about slowness of the site. It’s been slow for a while now. It’s not you, it’s the site. I use both Chrome and Safari, and this is the only site where the pages hang and take forever to load.

[mowowie]

Slower than it’s usual crawl

[Nifster]

Oh yeah

I’ve been getting better response by using the quad 209.157.64.200 rather than freerepublic.com

I can only assume this somehow bypasses some of the offline routers by going direct.

[onona]

Took five minutes to be able to post a reply, so yeah

[EdnaMode]

It’s been slow for me for a couple of hours.

I’ve been having issues with FR for months. I click a link, and I get a page or 2 of text, then it hangs, sometimes even timing out on the rest of the page. Sometimes it will render more. It almost looks like from a network perspective, that my browser is seeing resets (RST) from the server. It doesn’t really look like it is FR that is slow, but rather I’m seeing packet timeouts, and retransmits and the like. Probably should hook up a packet sniffer to see what’s really going on someday when I’m not lazy.

Slow in the midwest since yesterday afternoon, but every other site responds quickly.

I started seeing a huge upswing in double posts at the same time, so I think nearly everyone is having the problem (double posts due to user resending the post/save request because they didn't think the server saw it).

[Polyxene]

Very slow.

[FrdmLvr]

I thought it was my iPad.

[Velveeta]

It took 45 seconds after I clicked on this thread for the thread to load and then it only partially loaded. Then after clicking on reply, it took 58 seconds before the reply page would load. Very frustrating.

[Vendome]

It’s FR...

Just the way it is
