If I try to go to www.applenova.com it is very very slow. Takes up to 20 seconds before even opening. If I go directly to the forums then everything is fine. Just started happening within the last week or so it seems. I am on cable modem Road Runner with no other problems.

Did you bring me a monkey?

Yup. Another Southerner is also seeing very long download times on the order of 7-15 seconds.

I'm on the State of Arkansas (Government) network. Basically (for my location) a T1.

It could be one of a few problems...

One image on the site is retrieved from another server. Delays in retrieving that image could cause load delays.

There could be a router down.

You guys could just be imagining it

The front page loads a bit slowly on Earthlink/Verizon DSL in DC as well. But it's not like I ever read it.

Woh! We have a front page?

Loaded a bit slow from here, but nothing too bad.

Yeah I've been noticing that DNS lookup on the main page has been slow too. Which is odd since I'd think that it'd be in my DNS cache.

Took a second to connect, but I am on an Airport network. Other than that, just fine.

Bay Area, Sonic.net DSL, if it matters.
