Anyone experience slow browsing in Treehouse?

Yep! We're kind of getting hammered at the moment :) We're working on it though - hopefully we'll have another server or two up and running in the next little bit to help us bring things back to normal.

Yeah its really slow for me as well, guess they are having a few problems with the upgrade, which looks amazing by the way. Just hope the speed issues disappear soon.

Same here. I have confidence you'll get it sorted.

Hi Tommy. Will that take time? It is really annoying. We saw the beauty of the new site but we hate this issue.

I don't know if this this problem has anything to do with the https protocol? I use Firefox but what I noticed all websites are good in browsing speed but Treehouse is not!

Suli S -

We're pretty bummed about it too. All the publicity from the redesign has more than doubled our normal server load and we're having to race to keep up.

I don't have a specific timeframe for you but we're just getting the new servers tested to make sure everything's ok - hopefully we'll start seeing improvement real soon.

Aha!! This answers the support request I just logged. Feel free to ignore it as I don't want to add to your pain!.

Good luck with bringing in the new servers, the new site looks great!

Things should be a bit snappier now. We're going to keep an eye on it and continue to try to work on performance, of course, but for now you should see some improvement :)

It seems so already Tommy, yes! Are you guys still using AWS for the hosting?

That kind of web hosting interest me. Can you explain why you are moving in one sentence? I'd love to see a deep dive/project on picking and setting up that kind of web hosting. (Rackspace is similiar, correct?). Especially for guys geared more towards the design side of stuff.

It seems a bit better now but still not great.

Much better load times. I was seeing 12-16 second loads. Now the longest I've seen is 6 seconds, with many pages loading in about 2 seconds, which is on par with what the site was before the update.

Seems to be running better now, thanks for keeping us updated.

The only issue I'm having is trouble with the video buffering. It tends to stop and just buffer like there's no tomorrow, and it won't stop, so I'll have to refresh. I know it's only a push of a button, but it's still annoying.
