In a very bad way here
Each webpage takes around two minutes to load, apparently with four script errors that nearly crash the browser on each instance, whatever all that means.


This issue should be resolved. Cloudflare loaded some epicly awesome javascript apparently. For me at least, it's been working just fine (OSX Chrome latest build).

Anyway, I've forcefully turned off this javascript which was actually designed to optimize the loading of images on the site - particularly for mobile users - which can incur large overages for bandwidth consumption.

In other news, we've made quite a few other performance modifications on the backend which cut the load times on a lot of pages from 6 seconds to 3 seconds from my testing.

Just for an example - this is from a third party performance monitoring site (tools.pingdom.com) which reports the site being faster than 87% all of the websites they've tested performance on.

Even the forums have come a long way-

Something of note is that both of those performance checks include image assets that are outside our control (Ads, etc).

Good job! :) Thanks
