A quick status report.
Around 5:00 CDT this morning, I ran into a slow system for about 15 second when submitting a reply. Not a timeout but thought you guys should know.
Edit to add:
The timeout or slowness that I reported recently would only last for a few minutes, different from those who had the problem for hours. I noticed that based on the timestamp, I didn't run into slowness problem while others were reporting with crawling difficulty. On the other hand, when I try to search for "My post" or others' posts, the system sometimes will have a slow response. That has been the constant in the last two weeks or so.
Not sure if it has anything to do with the (different) FT servers. I am "FTing" from Central Texas.

Slow again, starting two minutes ago (at 9:25 CDT, both browsing and replying to a thread).
ETA: but this post went through without any delay.

Back to its old tricks. Speedy one click, the next one simply hangs forever. There are about three of the latter for every one of the former.
