What I'm finding is, sometimes Neowin will be super-fast. Almost insant infact, both on the forums and frontpage. Then later on in the day, I'll come to Neowin again and it'll be so slow it can take a good 5 minutes just to login. It even takes multiple attemps both to login and view topics sometimes because FF just totally gives up.

However now everything's working superb.

Perhaps a look at more physical aspects such as inter-server communication should be looked at?

Direct image requests are loaded instantly, but when dynamic pages are served they seem to lag quite consistantly. I am thinking that perhaps the mysql server and web server physical connections need to be addressed?

I'm not just saying the lan cable here either, I'm talking the configuration for the network connections, are these server connected via a different lan card to the mysql server than the one connected to the internet pipe?

When posting it seems the pages load slower so perhaps a look at that side of the communication also...
