Is it taking minutes to post, update and generally navigate for anyone else?

So it is the web site. I have been trying to reconnect to the site for a few minutes. I thought it was Youtube that was slowing my computer down. It might be so many people on the site at one time.

In the time it took me to get to this page, my parents got home, we put away groceries, got pizza and ate it. Think it might be Denial of service attacks.
It took 7 minutes to post that.

Yup, the site's just being really slow. It took me more than a couple of minutes to thank someone. I kinda wanna see how long it takes to make this post.

2 minutes. Not too bad, but I'm used to almost instantaneous posting. At least it seems to be faster now.

Oh... Didn't see this topic before I mentioned having this issue in the Chit Chat thread. Whoops. Things are fine and dandy on my end now.

First I timed how long it took to load a page and it took 10:48. Second, it was probaly the large amount of people on the site. I don't know what the normal is, but we had over 850 people on the site. It look like it's geting better but It may not be over yet.
