It sounds like some of the recent changes may have increased that usage. In through a website should not 'slow your system down' and once loaded only features such as the chatbox keep making requests which is a small overhead. The theme features should be fine if you have a half decent computer. Either way switching to one of the less customised themes will reduce resource usage. RobMc 1 Awards

Is it still slow? We identified an issue that was potentially causing slowness in loading etc. and that has been resolved. The other question would be what browser are you using? Apparently IE is shite with the site: In any case, you can use the IPS theme is that is better for you so no worries. Edited May 17, 2020 by Sitting-Duc YACCster 1 Awards

Takes me 3 minutes to sign in on chrome, site loads fast, then a flash and reloads, press sign in then it takes about a minute for keyboard to come up, then a flash and you wait again, then sign in routine starts again, finally get in default loads and no problems.

I have no idea about compatibility with a tablet and have never tested, although in theory the site is 'responsive' I do not believe it is mobile-first. A couple of things I can look at now but don't have high hopes. 6 hours ago, LilAcorn said: I use google chrome. I have tried firefox same thing. lags the system down, forever to scroll, forever to type certain things and I am a fast typer. my system gets cleaned weekly So no change in performance recently? Certainly the issue we fixed was affecting all users (different levels/times etc. as it was related to a third party service). However 'forever to type' sounds very much like a client side issue, although this platform does has some 'live' functionality for notifications and features like the chatbox once it is loaded it is loaded. Lagging an entire 'system' is a hard thing for a website to do. 'Cleaning' your system weekly will certainly result in worse performance for an image heavy site such as this. RobMc 1 Awards
