Anyone else have a problem on PR's main site?

**=RedBull0808=** · 01-15-2009, 07:29 PM

When I goto http://www.realitymod.com/ it is always so slow. It's like I'm on a 14k oldschool modem or something. I'm on a 20mbs fiber connection and have no problem with any other sites. Is it just me or is their site really this slow. If not what can I do?

**Waldo_II** · 01-15-2009, 07:36 PM

Just you, man. I'm on a 2 or 3MB line and it loads within a few seconds.

**=RedBull0808=** · 01-15-2009, 07:44 PM

It kinda baffles me. I was thinking about changing my page file size or something ,but everyother site is fine. I really like the site , but don't wont to screw anything up. I guess I could just do some trial and error test.

I have the same problem.

Blazing fast connection too.

I have the same problem as well, but only most noticable with their forums:

You bet my connection is fast.

Fast like a ninja...Fast like a TOW.

Slow as heck for me too. Every other site is fine, this site load like blink of eye fast and the PR one i could go and get a drink before it loads.

What browser are you using if you have problems with speed?

I'm using the current IE 7 for Vista 64 bit. I tried IE beta 8 and it only made it worse with other sites. (esp w/VR forum setups)

For those that aren't having any problems.

What browser are you using?

Works fine for me. IE 7 on XP Home.

**MarineSeaknight** · 01-16-2009, 12:57 AM

IE.. 7 I think? On Vista whatever-bit, I'm not very technical..

Pwn3ge · 01-16-2009, 01:05 AM

Runs fine on firefox. 30 Mb/s connection.

**Waldo_II** · 01-16-2009, 01:45 AM

I'm running Firefox 3.0.1 on OpenSUSE 10.3 x86, KDE 3.5.x.x.

In trying to get my kernel version, I went through YaST Software Updater, and in doing so I have to update all of my seven bajillion repos which I haven't touched in six months, ugh. All for the better, I suppose.

EDIT: 2.6.22.18-0.2, by the way.

And wow, I need to update a whole boatload of things. Firefox, OpenOffice, Compiz-Fusion, a few KDE components. All I had to do is check like five boxes, hit "Accept", and the mighty infinite power of Linux took care of the rest.

**Katanama** · 01-16-2009, 07:28 AM

I use chrome and firefox and they both load slowly

billyinorganic · 01-16-2009, 12:23 PM

linux pwnz?

Maniac302 · 01-16-2009, 06:21 PM

I think it loads so slowly because it is being held up by the ads, which don't load as fast as everything else. Sometimes, on a really slow day, you can see it just sitting there, saying
"downloading ad something something"

ArPeeGee · 01-16-2009, 06:25 PM

I use IE as well and it is indeed rather slow. Maybe it is the ads? :P
