"Picture of the Day" web page slow to load

Post by medalta » Tue May 04, 2010 5:49 am

I believe this is the correct section to post this question, but if not I am sure you will move or delete it as required. I have been an avid follower of the APOD images for years and would say I have enjoyed about 85% of the images.

My question is in regards to the browser load time of the main page http://apod.nasa.gov/apod/ . I have noticed a significant increase in the load time for this page over the last few weeks. I was wondering if this is a problem others are experiencing or is it at my end.

I have not had any problem with the main page loading, nor with the amount of time it takes to do so. It's as fast as it ever was.

I don't think the problem is with APOD. Try clearing your internet cache.
