Is it just me or is DU amazingly slow this evening?

It takes minutes to refresh pages. Many don't even come up at all.

Just curious

1. it's not just you

everything goes sslloowww then i'll get the "this page not found" and i can't get back at all.

2. Not just you

Mine's been really sluggish as well.

[pelagius]

Slow here, too.

Every once in awhile, I get a page saying DU's discussion database is down for crucial maintanence or words to that effect.

3. Same here

Hopefully it's because of all the new traffic and not some kind of Repig DOS attack.

4. It's not you

My second time trying to post this. The board is broken.

5. Extremely slow here as well. Is there an explanation?

6. Worst I've ever seen it!

Sometimes I get a denial of service. Once I get back on, it takes several minutes to get from one post to another. :(

7. Exactly the same here.

Very frustrating for an addict like me.:-(
