Those last days I noticed a severe slowdown for both RRR and rmvx.net, while all the other sites I frequent are unaffected. So I'd say this might be server-related especially if I'm not the only one noticing.

So, are any of you experiencing slowdown?

I've noticed the opposite. Lately, I've been having an easier time connecting and loading images. Setting aside the typical 2-3am (Central) time where the server is mostly inaccessible for a short time.

What's your response time for 66.28.139.58 ? What about a traceroute to the same address? You could be experiencing slowdown due to network problems on one of the hops

124 ms. The big slowdown apparently appears along the way at 216.6.90.9 where it suddenly jumps from 33 ms to 122 ms.
