WinCustomize Loading
Monday, January 22, 2007 by Peter Gambino | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
I find it very difficult to use this website whatsoever, half the time you click on a link, say Misc Icons or Wallpapers or whatever it is, it takes FOREVER and I do mean FOREVER for the page to load(if it loads at all), then you have to sit and wait for the icons to load, its just umbearable... Its great you've put so much attention into the detail of the new layout, but if your not going to fix the ability for somebody to actually view the website, whats the point?!?!

IIS...crashing...restarting...oh my!
I don't know what IIS is, but crashing regularly doesn't sound good. Is that normal? Anyway, I haven't had a loading problem for the last few days, but who knows when lag will strike again...
It partly may have been the internet itself. Last weekend there was no internet at all where I live. Some big SNAFU happened at some local ATT/SBC communications tower, and that really sucked.
Anyway, I just wanted to say I haven't had any problems recently (fingers crossed).

That does seem to be how the situation usually happens. For myself, the usual page loading is fast! It is just that once in a while where it "bogs" down, then it zips right along again - IE stills slows down, too, just not as much as FF. The new site does generally seem quite a bit faster than the old.
I read into this that what you describe is the the "norm", the way to expect the site to react? If that is the case, I've got no problem with that! I just like knowing what to expect, and I just want to help out where possible.
Thanks for the attention to this issue, and thanks for the great site.

I acutally don't think the difference is browsers but rather something to do with IIS and the database.
My theory is that it's IIS. What's happening is that the new WinCustomize is basically a web application and that IIS is crashing regularly. If you happen to be on the site when it's restarting itself you're waiting 30 seconds for a page to come up. Otherwise, it's really fast.
