I’m not having any problems at all, and the google analytics notice isn’t appearing on my screen. I seem to be able to post and refresh pretty quickly. No complaints here near DC.
It’s a bit spotty here (well, real spotty).
I just sat here for two minutes waiting for the wheels to stop spinning to post this reply.
It was zipping right along earlier tonight, but a few minutes after the ‘debate’ started it began to lag.
Now reloads are taking *at least* a minute and usually two +.
Bet a dollar that if you ran a port manager you’d see your machine trying to hit that google-analytics shite !
I’ll repeat that any of my other hundreds of bookmarks, with the possible exception of one or two that guys are still running from their basements w/ftp servers, are click.bang.there.
