    It's taking litterly from 10 to 90 seconds to go from thread to thread, to post, or even to load the PC forums home page. I'm not experiancing this problem with any other site, eg. hotmail, google, etc. :mad:

    Yes very. I suspect there's a high volume of traffic because of the unveiling of the two new Prius models.

    The reveal of the Prius v has caused the traffic on Priuschat to skyrocket. With all the people doing all the queries, the site's extremely slow.

    Is Danny hosting the video of the reveal, also? If so, that'll do it too.

    I was about to throw my computer through the wall. Glad I saw this first.

    I'm on 25 megabit/sec Frontier FiOS and Priuschat was very slow earlier this afternoon.

    Very pokey. I think many are linking to Danny's photos directly. Server load would be leaps and bounds above normal if so.

    It was slow for me about then too.

    It's not being a good netizen, but if you run 2 or 3 instance of PC you can be reading one thread while the others load
