I believe it is considerably faster... and I don't get any errors.  Not sure what you guys are witnessing.

could you be just talking about the front page?  If so... it is probably mostly the news articles... you can adjust how many articles you see in your account preferences... default is 10... if you cut it down to 3-5 it should be muuuch faster yet.

i'm saying those errors that I posted the screen shot of awhile ago (I still think it's an apache error, but without looking at the config files I can't tell for sure)

and I get them when loading forum pages too

Safari 2.0.1 (newest) on OS X 10.4.2

I've also gotten "page can not be displayed" (forget code) on IE6 xp pro sp2 at school (same symptoms happen page wise)

Could possibly be a routing issue (see below)

quick traceroute

I'd really like to see a resolution to these problems... its just that I never seem to have these probs... at home or here at work (both Comcast)

Hard to troubleshoot when I can't recreate the problem.
