Poll of the Day > Is it me or is GFAQs REALLY slow some times?

(+) Yeah! (+)

Lately the site seems to stop responding for sometimes minutes at a time. I click on a link, create a topic, or submit a reply and it just sits there. Sometimes it's just a few seconds, sometimes I can go off and use the bathroom or get something to drink and it still hasn't gone through when I come back.

Anyone else having this problem?

It took almost a full minute from the time I clicked Create Topic before it actually did anything.

it can be slow yes, though not quite a minute between refreshes. more like a good 10-15 seconds. enough that I will switch to another tab and do something else while I wait.

I suspect it's a memory leak. It seems to get worse the longer a topic is open, sometimes taking almost a minute to copy a quote or post a message. It's usually not too bad if I haven't spent too long on a page, though (this posted normally).

Having multiple tabs can compound the problem, but clicking away to another spot on the server will push other events pending.

It's gotta load all those clclclcl's!
