How Fast is this website?

How does everyone feel the speed of this site is?

Won't the speed of the site be determined by the speed of your internet?
So the speed of this site will be different to somebody on dial-up compared to someone on cable

It is loading pretty fast. It looks good enough to me for the time being.

Should be even faster now ---- I removed the bookmarking script from each post and the pages are loading even faster..... That was the only thing holding up the post pages....

Yes and No. You can make a site faster per each experience, relative to connection speed. However, some improvements like removing scripts that run in the browser improve speed equally (assuming everyone has a similar speed computer.) Yes, this site does seem faster from my initial visits.

Best,

Justin

Overall the website is fast, which is impressive for a UK based ISP fetching pages from a US server
However, one thing that is slow are the thread link fetches
For example,
When I click on a topic, the new page opens, only the background is visible, there is a delay of between 10 and 15 seconds, then the content appears
It is the same for posting new topics and replies

That has been bugging me for a while... The same exact thing happens to me, and is actually the reason I posted this back then.... I wanted to see if it was happening to others..... It has something to do with one of the advertising tables..

Pretty good so far... No-one to date has felt the site is really slow according to the votes....
Thanks for taking the time to provide feedback.....
