Poor Performance

Is the site running poorly lately? Go here and try to view the big ass image @Dictator posted.

Nvidia GeForce RTX 50-series Blackwell reviews

Do 32bit PhysX/CUDA applications run on 40 series cards with the newest driver? I always thought PhsyX effects in those old X360 era games were super cool.

Also I don't know how to contribute to the site. There used to be a subscription thing but I see no trace of it now.

I think it's possible that the attachment is too large and eating too much upload bandwidth of the site. Once I have the image downloaded and cached locally it's back to normal.

No performance issues on that. 6 MB png takes a couple seconds to download. Firefox.

Good conversation and no feeding of the trolls!

Yea it's working fine now. It was taking closer to a few minutes to load that image for me yesterday.

Could it be that you happened to download it while it was stilll uploading? Not sure how the site's code works with that.

The problem lasted for a long time but I dunno. It wasn't just that, the whole site was slow for me on multiple computers. Once the site was in browser cache the problem was masked pretty well unless there were uncached images involved.

This morning I cleared browser cache and checked again and performance was fine.
