Been having the same problem here. I'd rack it up to growth, but I dunno. It's just an irritant. :/

the desktop and mobile apps were fine for me today, but the web site has been slow all evening

Different server, different sub-domain.

OK, I thought it was just our server here that was being jerky...which can happen sometimes...it is irritating, during work, Pownce and BK are the only two ways I can communicate with the outside world. Everything else, including the cheeseburger cats are blocked here. I mean, the cheeseburger catrs, who are they hurting? FFS! :/

I've had the same problem for a while I ranted about it earlier... I tracked it down, and it seems to be an issue with the last hop, http://metrocrossing.l...,

they seem to hang on connections to pownce from my office, but not my home... which is odd because its the same isp.

At first I thought it was Time Warner being really heavy handed with their anti piracy policy, but... it seems not...
