I rebooted my network, and cleared my browser but the problem continues to exist.

Is the site experiencing congestion issues, or is it just me?

Seems to be functioning well for me sister! 💕

Thanks, I'll keep trying on my end in the morning.

Yea susans is lagging pretty badly... fyi....

ChrissyRyan · February 28, 2025, 06:48:18 AM

I hope it is backed up to limit any losses.

Chugging here a bit for the last few days.

I found it agonisingly slow last night (UK time). It is okay now (15:16 pm UK time). I did notice that Susan's had about 8000 visitors yesterday, about double what it was getting in the previous days. I suppose it would normally be slowest when Americans descend with leisure onto their computers.

ChrissyRyan · February 28, 2025, 09:32:52 AM

Perhaps a sort of denial of service attack.
It is still slow at times this morning. Not much fun to use this Web site because of the lag.

Lilis · February 28, 2025, 09:33:39 AM

Thanks everyone! I'm still experiencing slow rendering speeds, like 16s latency.

Will try again later... 🙏

Speed has now improved.

I was having issues yesterday and this morning.

I did the same thing: cleared the cache, flushed DNS, and rebooted the modem and PC. It's not on the user end. Other sites load quickly, but Susan's is taking 30 seconds to load a page.

It seems to be improving now, though.

Definitely not a DDoS. There could be maintenance going on in the background or possibly weather or other connection issues at the server.

ChrissyRyan · February 28, 2025, 10:10:50 AM

Now it is slow again.

Hi Everyone

It's slow here in Australia and I would tend to think a Denial of Service is in progress. Other websites load fairly quickly compared with Susan's Place. In other countries like Canada, its not slow.

Best Wishes Always

You'd think the IT miscreants of the world would have better things to do but... apparently not.

Danielle and her team will sort this out.

If there's one thing you can always rely on, it's the staff of Susan's being consummate professionals and working as quickly as possible to restore the smooth running of the site. Take this from someone who's been on that side for a lot of years. They've got this.

ChrissyRyan · February 28, 2025, 05:48:10 PM

Patience is suggested.

ChrissyRyan · February 28, 2025, 06:47:30 PM

I think I ran out of patience and will sign off for now.

All well!

This is a temporary thing, Chrissy. Have a good night, okay?

The staff is on this. I know from personal experience that site function is like top of the to-do list. Trust that they are working on this. As much as they can.
