Why So Slow?


Cool Water Palace

Recommended Posts

Have you run a trace by any chance to see where the delay is taking place? I am in Thailand and not having any problems last several days so don't believe it is a server trouble but probably routing changes being made now that repaired cables are starting to come back on line. Server is in Singapore and up until the last few days that path from Thailand has been very congested - now better for us but worse for Europe it seems. Expect things will get better as the net returns to normal routings.

I agree. The forums have been painfully slow here over the last 24 hours, but the tracert and speed test don't seem to back that up, so I thought it must be a server issue. The tracert shows an unusual route from East coast Australia, via Perth, L.A. and Hong Kong to Singapore but the latency is still OK at 250ms or so. The Thaivisa speedtest gives 400kbs. Not brilliant but OK. Why are pages taking 20 to 40 seconds to load?

I’m finding the site extremely slow tonight. I logged on an hour ago and have to wait minutes or more for a page to open or refresh multiple times. Other Thai web sites are fast. I’m using a connection through Dubai.

When , in a previous life I was responsible for

the implementation of big-box computer systems

and customers complained of the slow response time

I always said that the system slowed down to their

level of ability.

That often got a smile

or a glare

or a demand I be taken off the project.

Whatever.

Mai pen rai.

Here in the UK page loads are taking 10-15 seconds, ping is about 150 mS but a traceroute shows it going via Palo Alto, Sydney and Hong Kong with some delays. :o
