Ditto. Usually it only took a couple refreshes, it's a minor annoyance. But in the last few days it's been so bad that I gave up on trying to open the site.

Interestingly, on my observation it's not very consistent with the number of guests. For instance, right now it's bad and there are 7K. But earlier this morning it was even worse to the point that I quit, but there were only 4K. I mean, 4K is still a lot, but the site doesn't function twice as well with half the number of "guests".

Equally clueless as to how to fix it, but willing to pitch in and help with whatever solution.


Edit: it's not just loading the page either that's the issue. The whole site is slow. Avatars aren't loading, posts take ages to load, it's slow as heck.
