Forum response Latency???


Hi,

Not really a Slackware issue but a Slackware forum issue on LQ.

I'm experiencing a long latency time when using LQ Slackware forum.

Be it posting, viewing or even spell checking a reply the lag is long. I checked with other machines and still the same.

Anyone else having this issue?

I have a few issues running Konqueror and Firefox(linux) and Firefox(windows).

1. Konqueror(yeah for 3.5) - sometimes the ads below the top links bar show up in front of the drop down links menu (e.g. you cant click on the drop down links because the adds cover them), most times they don't though but very obnoxious because Konqueror is my favorite browser!!!!!!

2. I have had this problem in firefox in Linux and Windows - sometimes when I click on post quick reply, there is no indication that I pressed the button i.e. the swirly graphics on the top right of the browser or the bar on the bottom right do not show any activity. Then about 30 seconds later the button will be click. The problem with this is that until I figured out to have patience, I would click the post quick reply button twice and it resulted in a double post in this thread. (if you click on the link it will make sense)

edit: It happened to this dude in the forum also

I was going to tell a moderator about my troubles but did not want to bug them since this could be a local issue not a global one, for example, I figured that no packets were being sent to LQ and hence firefox's progress bars did not give any indication of activity. As for Konqueror, all though it offers features well more advanced than anything I have seen and it is an awsome browser, it is still very buggy.

Don't know, don't use other forums.

Hi,

I've had this across the board! I've tried Konqueror, Firefox (1.5) even Mozilla which I just login with.

Mozilla was the fastest but still latency is longer then it should be. I've checked my lan speeds not enough speed difference to cause the lag. Might just be internet or server load.

Things seem ok from here and I am on a fairly bad wifi hotel connection. if anyone else has problems, please do post. To address the two issues that accessrichard commented on: 1) That must be a browser bug as we only run text ads in that spot for exactly that reason. 2) That's normal - the page really is not being reloaded since we use AJAX.

Hi,

I've checked on my end and everything seems to be ok. Today it's not as bad. I've got adsl and will check on Monday with the provider. I've had some issues in the past that I thought had been resolved. I know that the isp is up-grading to 4M and wonder if they have gotten to mine and failed to inform me. Therefore requiring a different modem.

Thanks for the response!
