Good morning, Stephen!

Were there changes to this website over the weekend?  I've noticed that it takes almost a minute to load a webpage, displaying only a white screen while it churns away.  I just wanted you to be aware of it.  :-)

This is on both Safari and Chrome on Mac 10.9.5.

Noticed the same thing. I know Stephen works hard to make this site such a great resource, but it seems that some of the recent underlying changes have produced problems.

i've been recovering from gallbladder surgery so I haven't been working on the site for the past week. 

I'll put in a trouble ticket to see what they can do to remove the speed issue.

restarted apache - and change cacheing method, let me know if this is better.

Seems much better now for me.

Though we still have the width issue and narrow content area.

Hi Stephen,

Much faster, thank you so much!  I hope you are feeling better!  Thank you for giving us such a great website.  Get lots of rest!  :-)

Hi Bruce,

I don't know what you mean by "width issue and narrow content area."  Everything looks normal to me but I may just not be aware (I haven't been around a lot lately).  Can you post a screenshot showing what you mean and provide your browser as well?  I wonder also if you are using a different theme.  I'm just curious and would like to pinpoint it.  Thank you!

Hi LaRetta, I did post a screen shot, a few days ago, in another thread, here, see link below.

Certainly glad to hear Stephen is feeling better!

 

Stephen,

Wishing you a speedy recovery!

Mark
