February 7
Tonight: about a minute to get in, and 15 seconds for pages to open and icons to load.
I didn't have to log in this time however.

I think all the northern hemisphere data is falling down to me because it's fine down here.

Hi, all -
I'll be away for a few days, but next week I'll try to find some time to do a demo clean install of the phpBB software with an empty database. With that in place I'll ask they you try the demo version when the OW version is slow. If the demo is also slow, then it's probably the service provider. If the demo is not slow, then it means we probably have a software or database issue.
Thanks for your patience,
- Bob

Because the problem seems intermittent, can it be an overzealous (search) bot, or bots, scraping the forum for information, putting a strain on resources?
