Radio Reference Internet pages slow to load?

[K4IHS]

Just wondering if anyone else is having this problem. The Radio Reference internet pages have been very slow to load... or sometimes not at all over the past 3-5 days. Sometimes I have to refresh the page to get it to load. I have Comcast. I was at a friends house over the weekend... he has Century Link DSL and RR was slow to load on his pc and internet connection too. Other www address's are ok and load normally. Seems to be just the RR loading slowly... :-(

Folks,

We are not aware of any widespread performance issues for the site. We've seen record traffic and page impressions over the past 2 weeks, and I'm not able to see where any performance issues are impacting the ability of users to access the site.

I'm attaching below a chart of the response times to the homepage of RR. The values are in milliseconds. We actually made some infrastructure improvements back in early december which dramatically increased performance from that time period. Attached is a graph which shows that.

Thanks,

It seemed to be related to Comcast. ATM I'm not having any issues but didn't try the other day.

I noticed some sluggishness on Saturday. I started paying attention to what was slowing things down and it appeared to be the tracking scripts that load after everything else.
