Why is MN so slow?

I'm not moaning - honest!

But Mumsnet s very slow - all the time. There's definitely nothing wrong with my internet, I have 200MB download and all other sites are fine.

I just wonder why this is? Are you throttled?

Yep. Definite crash.

I keep getting the page reloading issue which happens when the ads are causing grief too (or was before the crash).

Pleeeeeeease MNHQ do something about your site, it's driving me nuts.

Northernlurker · 20/01/2017 20:39

Speed has been fine for me, using app on iPad. However it definitely crashed tonight.

shggg245 · 20/01/2017 20:38

It was down for me for the past half an hour. Everything else is accessible. Somethings def not right.

woodhill · 20/01/2017 20:38

Yes, it's dreadful at the moment

MistressMerryWeather · 20/01/2017 20:37

Yep, LIZ.

Definitely crashed there for a wee while.

Lucked · 20/01/2017 20:37

Yep I thought it was down as getting blank pages but now possibly faster than before

MirandaWest · 20/01/2017 20:37

I had blank pages for about 10 or 15 minutes

DoIDareDisturbTheUniverse · 20/01/2017 20:36

It seems very hit and miss for me. I can click a thread and it won't load in over a minute. Click it again and it loads almost immediately.

LIZS · 20/01/2017 20:35

Did the site just crash for anyone else? Neither app nor desktop would load for last 10 minutes.

ChardonnayKnickertonSmythe · 20/01/2017 20:35

I get blank pages, not loading at all.

MistressMerryWeather · 20/01/2017 20:34

Oh, deary.

I wonder what's up now?

DameDeDoubtance · 20/01/2017 17:51

Was okay this morning then started choking up again, 30 seconds to load a link. Every other site is lightning fast.

EduCated · 20/01/2017 16:12

Very erratic today Confused

CanadianJohn · 20/01/2017 14:40

So, the speed was better this morning, and I thought I'd click on this thread to say so. Unfortunately, MN promptly slowed down again.

There's probably some sort of irony here: I click on a thread to say MN is running well, and the site slows down.

OhYouBadBadKitten · 20/01/2017 12:59

spoke too soon, as soon as I posted it became a nightmare again and couldn't get back on this thread to say that. Argh. Please mn sort it out, There is clearly something causing an issue.

OhYouBadBadKitten · 20/01/2017 12:54

It's much better at the moment.

MistressMolecules · 20/01/2017 12:29

Even to click on this... I clicked once, it wasn't even half loaded in 30secs. I clicked again, and it loaded fully in under 5?

^^ This is what I am having to do as well to get the pages to load.

Spudlet · 20/01/2017 12:26

It's awful on the iPhone and iPad. Horrendously slow.

MistressMolecules · 20/01/2017 12:26

I'm on Windows 10 and Chrome and it is so slow for me. I am having no issues with any other site I am going on.

ItsAllGoingToBeFine · 20/01/2017 12:24

Slower than a slow thing here too. When you hit post it just whirrs away forever until you refresh (which also takes ages)

Ginslinger · 20/01/2017 12:21

has been slow for days and particularly bad this morning

DragonRojo · 20/01/2017 02:06

The stupid Fairy advert gets on the way all the time. It's too easy to accidentally click on it when scrolling down and once you've clicked, the endless wait starts

Redactio · 20/01/2017 00:07

Really bad last night, at the moment it's fine.

LineysRun · 20/01/2017 00:02

It's unusable
