Default Help us with a little speed test.

We're thinking about hosting PF elsewhere, but we want to see if the speed is OK for you guys first.

Please load this site, which is hosted at the facility we're looking at: http://forums.maxima.org

...And tell us how the speed compares to PassionFord.

Thanks in advance!

It's no faster for me right at this moment, infact probably slower. I wonder how it is for consistency? That's the only thing that PF sometimes lacks.

PF is considerably faster.

edit: however a lot of that is due to initial caching of the pages, the 2nd time i followed the same few links i tested it was much faster but still not quite as sharp as PF.

Other site feels slower...

Is this an attempt at getting all of us to look at some advertising on another site
