I wanted to give everyone a warning that I am going to be doing some testing with plugins to see if they are the cause of the slow loading and sporadic unavailability issues you are experiencing. I have no idea how long this is going to take. If things look wonky or if you are not getting notifications like you are used to receiving, just know that I am working to resolve the issues. For now, it will be one plugin at a time.
Thanks for your patience!

My post took about 20 seconds to show up. That is about the same as usual for me.
I don’t think I can impact the slow loading until I switch to VPS and a more dedicated server. I will probably do that later this year. My concern was the “unavailable” error messages I and others were getting periodically. You haven’t had issues with that, have you?
Just stopping by to see if I can comment successfully. I’ve always been able to for the most part but it’s just been slow. Let me see how this one posts.
I commented a couple times lately and it has been fine. Like you said on Twitter it is a bit slow, but at least no errors!
Good. I think all of the issues was a compatibility issue with one plugin. All I know is that I deactivated all of my plugins and added them back one at a time. When I got to this particular plugin, I immediately got the unavailable error message upon refresh but haven’t seen it once since I deactivated it again. I’m going to consider it fixed. Unless I get that damn error message again.
