Forum going very slow?

It does seem to me much better today, it might be nothing to do with the server, it might be how it's routed and it could have been an issue elsewhere that is now fixed
My wife's company, based in Sheffield, had a couple of days of crazy slow speeds on their intranet (all data is cloud based).

Eventually it was traced to an accidentally unplugged fiber cable in a London data centre.

They still don't know exactly how my wife's system was working at all, but they think it must have "found a way" through long-forgotten wires & switches.

Does seem better today.
Another forum I'm on was going very slow a few days ago, and when the mods checked, it had 35k+ "guests" logged in/connected, some peeps reckoned it was AI bots trying to gather info? Sorta makes sense as whenever you google or use AI it just tends to regurgitate whatever it finds on popular related websites/forums, so AI, eg: Artificial yes, Intelligence, Mmmm, not so much!
 
These days is either AI or Russians lol, glad to see the site running up to speed again 👌
 
Not good .... I've seen this over the last few days ..... painful.
