I was hoping the maintenance would speed it up. It's been like this for a month or so now, when other sites load fine.

Anyone else experiencing extreme slowdown?

With all due respect, this attitude does not help anyone. He had a legitimate question & concern.

He was only asking what other people's experiences are to get their input. Knee-jerk reactions are unnecessary.

Yeah, some people are overly rude. I mean, how dare I ask whether other people are having a similar steamgifts issue as myself, on the actual steamgifts forum.

If it's always slow it's your connection.
Prior to the maintenance it was going normal for me.

Yes, it seems to me that it's not able to handle the database load at times. The site was just down for hours afters slowing down heavily and eventually grinding to a screeching halt earlier today, but I tried pinging it at the time and there were no problems with latency (average for me is 10-15ms) or packet loss so it was reachable.

I've noticed a pattern of it being slow (even excruciatingly so as you put it) during the daytime hours here (Eastern United States) and possibly extending into early evening. This range of time seems to be the peak period of activity for the site.

The performance comes and goes. Sometimes it's amazingly responsive other times it's extremely slow.
