Title: sllllllllllloooooooooooow website
Post by: zpyder on December 16, 2013, 19:43:35 PM
Very quick question, does anyone else find the following site really slow to use?

http://www.careerbuilder.co.uk/

Seems 9 out of 10 visits there's a massive lag on anything I try to do on this site, assuming it works at all. I'm not talking server response, it's as though there's some really inefficient code or resource intensive thing going on. Tried using it in different browsers, same results.

Fine here too, the problem is probably your ISP's DNS or routing.

Hmmm. I'm assuming you guys are just clicking around?

The things that seem the worst for me is once I've logged in, things like trying to edit CV's and scroll through job lists take several seconds for mouse clicks to register etc. It's strange as it's just this one website. Oh well.

try ipconfig /flushdns from a command prompt

Would networking issues cause things like a 3 second delay when ticking a check-box? I didn't think things like radio buttons and tick boxes were "networked" rather, it's a local script that only uses the network at the end when you click send?

Indeed that is true (unless the checkbox activates some sort of AJAX process to update the page), it definitely sounds like a script problem in that case.

Check the error console (press F12 and reload the page)
