Faster for me now than it's ever been... 'course I'm on a brand new laptop... that might have something to do with it. But I don't experience any loading hang-ups anymore.

I find that its a mixed bag, some going slow, some going quick. Could be the outer net or the server, or this crappy browser I'm running IE.

It doesseems slower once in awhile but works pretty good overall, and I use IE7 and it works great. Use Firefox if you don't like IE, simple solution except it won't be any different. I don't like Firefox because it's not totally compatible with everything and some sites I go to require IE.

It works good for me here at work but at home, I have to stop a page from loading sometimes to get it to show up. Like it's trying to load something that my anti-virus is blocking.

It's hit-and-miss for me.
Sometimes it's working great and everything is clicking.
At other times I lose a post as I try to process it or a thread takes forever to pull up for me.

The speed seems fine to me but one thing the new server didn't fix or is it just me?
I always click on "Posts Since Last Visit".
On nearly every page there are duplicates of posts from the previous page. Sometimes a few, sometimes many more. Not that big a deal but it is irritating.
