It's getting slower and slower right now between every click/page load. 
Maybe because time after time IB tech just can't replicate the problems we regular FTers ever run into and report, while they wanted to learn more about our devices?

We've been trying to replicate the behavior some users are seeing, but have not been able to.
Tech have been working on this consistently for a few weeks, and they'll keep at it. More memory was added to the site servers last week in hopes it would help, and apparently it has not.
Any additional info you can provide, as requested above, could be helpful.

It is working fine for me since I posted earlier today.
In my case, it may have been some ads or analytics that weren't loading fast enough.
However, my firewall at work is pretty strong and filters out most graphics, so I can never tell exactly what the cause might be. If it happens again, I'll jot down the site it's trying to access.

Things are frustratingly slow for me tonight, although earlier today wasn't good either.

It's happening right now, 5-10 second lag in every page load. Sigh!

Cheers.

We're seeing the slowness at HQ today for the first time-- hoping it's related so when we resolve it, it's for everyone. But I doubt it

Painfully slow at times today, especially for "post quick reply."

It's pretty bad again. Every fourth or fifth click entails waiting 5 to 25 seconds.
Nothing whatsoever special about my configuration - Chrome and Win7.
And it happens on no other website.

Slow again today sporadically, especially for Post Quick Reply.
