Google slow to load …
Posted by Reaper-X Oct 3 2007 12:25 am
Just when i thought i’m the only person who’s experiencing this problem, someone create a new thread over at Digital Point forums saying that he’s also experiencing slow loading problem when accessing various Google services such as Adsense, GMail, Adwords or the Google Search itself
All the Google features such as GMail, Adwords, Adsense, and just plain old Google Search have been lagging a little more than usual for me. Google has something going on. I think soon Google will surprise us with a bunch of new features. Just be patient all you PR fanatics! Can you say algorythm update!
With the exception that i don’t think there’s PR Update going on … i just think that there’re some network issues somewhere. Other than that i also noticed a slow loading time when accessing my adsense account page or searching the web using Google although i don’t really have problem with the GMail or Adwords simply because i don’t use it (well i’m using Google hosted email and using POP3 to retrieve all emails)
I don’t know if it’s just me or does anyone else who visited this site also experience delay especially at the Javascript part which is comes from the Google CSE, but recently i’ve been thinking on moving the Javascript over to this site … but i’m not sure whether if it’s going to break Google rules or not (i know that this vps is nothing compared to the Google server, but it just bothering me because whenever i try to access this site, i always see some delay when loading the Google CSE Javascript code)

I noticed this about a week to 10 days ago as well, and I am in Detroit. I think it may actually be a DNS issue. Do any of you use OpenDNS on your router? That’s the only thing I can think of. I doubt it’s anything internal, you would think big G would clue us in. Also has anyone noticed other sites that have embedded Google search are taking forever to load. I found this on vanityfair.com and pitchfork.com yesterday but the problem seems to have disappeared today.
I first noticed it beginning last week with google.com and it’s getting slower. Although google.co.uk seems ok which is where I am. Similarly I’ve found yahoo.com slow to return search results with uk.yahoo.com much quicker. Although the obvious explanation seems to point at a US to UK problem, ask.com is just as quick as uk.ask.com ?????
I am wondering too. Most of my work rely on Google Products and I am using Google for searching online. At first, I thought it was just my connection, but then I tried searching in Yahoo, and it went fine. I am glad to find this post, and that means I am not alone experiencing this problem.
