Yup. Acting sluggish despite my broadband connection. Usually it's trying to load a particular thread or respond to one is where the sluggishness is most noted.

Seriously, what's up? It's about as slow as it has ever been for me.

I think it was the internet, when I started this morning for the news run. I was able to post one article, before my connection dried up. I had to reboot the system twice or three times, to get a clear connection.
Possible answer, a great morning rush to get on the net, could have caught servers by surprise. Or somewhere, a node was under attack *I had NOTHING to do with that * Since I got more bandwidth from Verizon, last week, I have noticed some hiccups, in the line.
Here is a little trick I use to test the net connection, while I surf, I have a internet radio on, running a constant stream to my system. That is when I know, that is how packet loss will occur. Service disruption is happening somewhere.

Hey Houston EN Worlders! Interested in Getting together? Let's meet up and have lunch or something!
Traffic on the site doesn't seem to be particularly heavy, but it does have that 'bad old days feel'. Could something have gotten messed up by the weekend re-indexing? I thought the point of that was to speed things up?

So do I. My semi-local alternative station has live streaming of their broadcasting. *semi-local being they're in Charlotte and I'm over an hour north of them. I do have something which occasionally hangs up aol and makes it quit responding.... don't know what.... something is getting disrupted somewhere.

All my sites have been slow so far this morning, so I figured it was just my ISP.
the www.paizopublishing.com site loaded faster. and that is saying something as it takes forever for that site to load.

When in doubt, go to google.com and you should have a pretty good idea how well your connection speed is doing.
Something was done Monday morning that slowed things down and it appears that something done this morning has exacerbated the problem, because it is more sluggish today.
Doesn't seem consistent, though. At least, last night they were going pretty quick.
