Everything loads slowly, and when I type there is a lag. Does this happen to other people?

it was unusable for me when we first launched a couple of hours ago, but it's actually pretty decent for me at the moment.

It's happening to everyone.

Clearing cookies / cache helps, but it's still mega-ultra slow.

I think this happened last re-code. Everything switches over to the new servers or code or whatever, and runs slow for the first few days...




...did you see what cult has disappeared? Bad news. Don't say it's name.

Step 1: get the speed up to "usable".
Step 2: work out kinks in new system.
Step 3: increase speed to "good".

Keep in mind that there is a much higher traffic volume what with people trying out new features on the site and be patient, folks. It is way quicker now than when it first came back online, I'll say that.

I'm experiencing a crazy lag when I type in the box. It only happens to me when I use Safari. If I use Firefox everything is fine. Any other mac users with similar problems?

Pretty much all today was so slow. It would take atleast 1 to 2 minutes for a page to load. Hopefully someone can get this fixed.
