WinCustomize Beta pages are way too slow loading!!!

Images seem to be taking a while to load, not necessarily the actual page here.

Any page I go to. I have noticed that Wincustomize original site is slow sometimes also. But the beta version is extremely slow to open and page or picture to view.

It probably is because it is beta but frustrating.

It's slow for me as well on all pages but only when using IE7. Firefox works fine for me...except for the spastic filter dropdowns.

from another thread:
We are getting some reports of "slowness", but they have been pretty vague.
If you experience any type of slowness please be specific as possible.
- What is the page url?
- What browser?
- Anything else that might help us track down the problem.
Thanks for your help!

We need more specifics because the site is very fast for us.

Beta site is fast here in Indiana too, in Firefox or IE8.

All I can tell you is that when using IE7 it takes about 10 secs longer for pages to load. And while waiting everything freezes up. No problems with Firefox. Just tried again with IE7 and still slow.

I think the IE7 issues are some javascript speed problems (something with the way IE7 loads javascript). As has been said before, the site hasn't been fully optimized yet, once the bugs in actual functionality have been fixed we will look at ways to remedy this (if nothing else we can just dial down all 'extra' javascript on the page when using IE7).

Kestral...I normally use Firefox and was just using IE7 to test out the speed of the beta site with it. Firefox works great on the site.

I use Firefox, and the site is like lightning for me. Waaaay faster than the old one.

Might have something to do with it being beta.
