Go figure as soon as I answered the poll, the page took a long time to load...what I've noticed lately is that sometimes it does, but usually refreshing the page does the trick. Almost like they have a slow server on a cluster of servers and I sometimes hit that.

It does seem extra slow tonight though. It seems worse if I click the "Home" link at the top. (It goes through some rds.yahoo.com page. Is this expected?)

Hi Andir,

This is happening becuase the server is not located at a proper location. Instead its located far away from the European countries. That is why the server takes so much time to load.

I have called the hosting provider and asked him to check this problem. But before i move the thing i wanna make sure.

Also the rds.yahoo.com thing is to increase our hits at yahoo.com so we get a better page rank. This should not be a problem if our server loads the pages fast..but as its slow it takes time to load.

Thanks!

Hello!

Everything has been fixed now! The page load time has decreased from 9 seconds to 1 second. =D

Thanks for all your help!
