I've just looked briefly around the bbs for the thread in which we discussed the recent (weeks ago, now) issue with slow loading of the front page of the bbs.

I've just had it happen for a couple days now that the initial load for the day takes about 20+ seconds.
Also, it seems very, very quiet in here. I feel like the Omega Man or something.

edit:
I should add that the site took 20+ seconds to load on two different machines for the initial load on at least two days running so far. Just a little worried.
