How fast is this site?
Jul 18, 2008 Uncategorized
I have heard rumors that some people have a hard time accessing my site or that it is very slow for them. I would like to figure out exactly what is going on.
So, bare minimum, would you answer this quick poll?

If you have trouble, would you post a comment and let me know the problems you have?
Thanks!

I voted “slowish” as it seems to take longer for the initial connection to your site than most others I visit often. It is fairly consistent that way. Definitely not as slow as dirt though. I use OpenDNS & have thought that maybe not enough people are coming to your site through OpenDNs to keep your pages in the OpenDNS cache so I am always waiting for pages to load from your server, so it seems slower. Just a thought…

It was blazing fast for me - but that’s probably because I have a mac……..:-)

You need an “i have no clue because i pretty much only read it through RSS feeds…hey, wait a second was this really just a ploy to get me to visit the site? Damn that clever Noelle!” option on the poll.

I said average because I don’t really have that many issues with it. I read most of the stuff via Bloglines anyway.

I would tend to agree that the initial connection is slightly slow. I went between opendns and comcast and there was no difference. However the site performance is good. There is no way your server could handle a million hits a day though.

It loads up blazing fast for me, but that’s probably because I only ever visit at work. Here’s hoping Steve Hrapkiewicz doesn’t visit your blog much…
And the real question is, “phentermine — how it works?” I don’t think that’s even gramatically correct.
By the way, hooray for comment spam!
