Site troubles?

[femaster]

Man, the site is extremely slow and unresponsive tonight. Was slow when I got on at about 11:00 PM (CDT), was completely unresponsive from like 11:40 to 11:50, and seems to slowly be coming back now at 12:00, but is still very slow... Having some sort of maintenance, maybe a DOS attack, or perhaps just on a shared server that another site is getting slammed on?

In any case making for one LONG session to catch up on the posts from the last few days that i have missed. Hope the trend of the speed returning keeps up...

Re: Site troubles?

After closer inspection, might just be a machine somewhere between me and the server the site is sitting on. Very strange results from a Trace Route. Even bumped the default 30 hops up to 50 and it still never actually reaches the site, yet I can get to the site, just is VERY SLOW...

Tracing route to copytechnet.com [216.227.215.59]
over a maximum of 50 hops:
