24. For a while, all I could get was the top banner
I figured there was something up so I left DU for a while. When it finally came back I noticed that the newest "Latest" post was about twenty - thirty minutes old - like that ever happens!

Looks like there are still some problems. But I have confidence. I'm sure all will be well shortly.

5. Perhaps they've accelerated the server to near light speed.
Or placed it at the bottom of a very deep gravity well?

13. Problems here too. First very slow, then couldn't log on for a while.
Now it still seems pages are loading very slowly. It's been going on for a bit more than a half an hour...maybe 45 minutes, I'd say.

20. Very high packet loss
Wheres my packets at?

The network hops right before the DU servers were pinging at 1500+ milliseconds, when 90ms is the average, and with a real high packet loss rate.

somethings happening for sure.

26. It has the characteristic of broken network hardware
One or more of X routers is dead or dying. which is why its fast and slow, in the same request. A single http request on DU triggers a bunch of other requests, if any of them hit that bad router or whatchamahoosit, the whole page load is delayed.
