its just with ENworld, all the other sites I go to are fine. The past couple of days, Every time I go to ENworld fourms or the ENworld main page, its very slow loading, like a minute, everytime I go to different page. I have a 2.0 gig CPU, 512 DDR RAM, broadband. Anyone else having this problem?
Yep. It'll end up being at least five minutes for me to get this reply out. It's worse now than it has been recently, though -- I haven't had a real bad time the last few days except during peak traffic hours.
I have experienced it, but I always attributed it to board usage at peak times slowing the site down. I try not to use them between 9-5 local time, and it works out alright for me.

I can personally attribute it to any time. When I say it's intermittent, I'm not kidding. It can be slow like this between 9 and 5, or 10, 11, 12, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5...I think you get the idea.
I get speed quirks here on and off throughout the day.
I've been told that my cable connection is subpar, so some of it can certainly be attributed to that -- but in general, I just chalk it up to a very large board being slow sometimes.
I wasn't able to get to the main page or boards yesterday at all, though I did give up after a minute or more of no activity. The boards load qucikly for me despite the lack of broadband so it's not a normal problem for me.
