Websites slow connection.

Sometimes when I try to load a page in scratch it takes about 1 minute to load. It's as if loads of people have just logged on to scratch. I have got a 20mb connection and other pages on websites load in 0.1 - 2 seconds. Why is this happening? By the way the whole page takes ages to load not just the project.

Re: Websites slow connection.

You could try a different browser, because you should be fine with a 20mb connection. I've got a 2mb and it works well.

Also, the scratch website was experiencing some problems this morning, so it might be that. Try again in a little bit and it might work.  smile

Re: Websites slow connection.

It is likely you tried using the website during a period of a lot of traffic. What time (and timezone) did you try using it?
