Site download time a snails pace.

[smercer]

The one thing I don't like about this site is its download time to download a single page (just pick which one, any one) (I am on dial up at 31,000 baud).

I noticed the site has it's layout based on table format, maybe that has something to do with it. taking out those un-necessary “you are now being taken to your post” messages would improve on time

what does everyone else think?

I'm on v. fast bband in the UK and it's lightning fast for me, almost no load time. Even when I'm at home and I'm on 512K there's still almost no load time.

I also see vertualy no load time, unless the threads contain multiple images, in which case it get's complexe...

I would like the site to impliment external files(for JS and CSS) as this would reduce loading time using the cache(the pages cannot be currently cached as they continuously change, but constants can always be kept the same)

It would also alow uses to select there own colour scheme and such.

i've only had problems when i was on dialup at peak usage times.

I wish I had broadband, I can only have saterlite in my area, and even that I can't have because of trees all over the place.
