[Bioc-devel] support.bioconductor.org very slow

[Wolfgang Huber]

Dear Gordon & all,

I just tried and can confirm similar behavior, i.e., long latency of response after each click. This is from Heidelberg / EMBL network.
This seems to be new, I recall much better latencies for the same site, visited from the same desktop, previously.

One website checker I consulted says that "There is no Content Delivery Network (CDN) active for the site.” which may if true explain that the problem would depend on distance from Boston(?)
And https://pagespeed.web.dev/analysis/https-support-bioconductor-org/nhsnyeuezl?form_factor=desktop reports 'First Contentful Paint’ in the order of 2s.


Thank you and kind regards
Wolfgang
