We have a slow connection here and the new site is definately slower than the old one, my guess is because of all the extra graphics that have to load.

 

On all pages?  The homepage certainly contains more graphics than the old site, the forums page doesn't though.

This page I am on now, surely it has more pictures and little GIFS than the old site

[Steve Bullman]

same size and amount of banners as the old site.  Any addition gifs aside from those are tiny and wouldn't be causing issues.  Profile pics are smaller.  I'll have to find out what is causing the issue.

From my favorites the home page take 4 seconds to load .  Then switching between the tabs at the top takes a max of 2 seconds  between each one . Never timed the old site but doesn't  seem slower to me .  I'm on Sky fiber to the socket by the front door then normal cable across the house to the back room .  DL  35.39

Search function is a bit weird, put in Arb memes and it could not find it, yet it's the name of the thread.

 

 All in all though the new site is great, especially the like function, picture loading better as well.

The issue with the search is you need to select which area of the site you want to search.  just make sure 'all content' is selected

Ahh. Merci.
