Why is PF so slow

    Nope never experienced any problems. Perhaps it's me that's slow and so PF seems OK.

    Its the same here , seen freezes and slow to load .
    The site is old and probably needs to close for a revamp and update .

    Working fine for me.

    I haven't seen the slow performance you guys have reported, myself.

    As an aside, this is why we need a separate forum for forum issues. This isn't a general figure item, it's a forum technical problem. That content deserves its own dedicated location.

    Prost!

    The first time this come up a few weeks back I didn't comment as I was having problems with my broadband and everything was slow . It has been sorted for well over Two weeks and everything is zooming along everything except for PF . It starts out OK but after a couple of threads it starts to slow down , clicking on thumb nails seems to be a waste of time now as it takes for ever for the pictures to come up and moving along the line it seems to stall for ages before moving to the next picture . Many times I give up which is a pity as many modellers have put a lot of effort into there models it would be nice to see their work .

    Are you guys Premium Members? It's been slow for me for many months now. I figured it was due either to my extreme lack of computer skills coupled with a 10 year old computer hopelessly cluttered with unnecessary who knows whatall, or possibly the fact that I'm too cheap to enroll as a Premium member.

    I usually visit here 3 or 4 times a week because planetfigure is the most informative but other figure sites are lightning fast in comparison.

    It's been Ok for me in the main. I use opera web browser, not sure if that makes a difference.

    Not for me in the Dominican Republic. As Chippy says the first page tends to open with acceptable speed but the subsequent pages take an age.

    I am still working on this issue along with technicians from the hosting company where we keep our forum. We already went through a number of configurations options, but the reason for this intermittent slowdown hasn't been found. The website can be very fast and suddenly slow down with 20-30 seconds delay. I don't have an estimate at this point on when this will be fixed, as we are still investigating.

    I am getting sporadic performance issues today and when I look at my iPad or phone it seems that it has now disppeared from Tapatalk which is irritating.

    Just FYI

    Cheers
