Anyone noticed this or is it just me?
When clicking a link here on forum, fox will normally load up in 5-10 sec period. I thought this was the bandwidth problem of the website until I tried Chrome, which loads up instantly in general.
Just updated from 8.0 to 10.0 of firefox, it loads up a bit faster, in less than 5 secs generally, but still really slow compared to Chrome.
I know here we have a huge Android community, and if you love Android, you probably love Google, and if google, then probably Chrome. Then, a lot of people might choose Chrome over Fox any day, and would point out how Fox is weak, but let's be technical here
For me, Chrome is just a minor substitute browser, which I normally use for different kinds of purposes (like logging into > 1 accounts at one site and so on). And I've used Firefox for years, so I'm definitely a good supporter of the Fox.
Anyway, I wasn't sure if I should post here or Q&A or Offtopic, so I just went ahead and chose the seemingly most generic forum to post. Hope it's OK.
Shall we discuss this if anyone's interested...
Cheers
Have you got a trace of the page load times?
Sorry, how do I get the trace? I am normally the highest layer of enthusiast, which basically means that I am a newb compared to 95% of the users here on xda
Firefox uses a different rendering engine than Chrome. Chrome also uses a faster java script rendering engine, allowing it to load pages faster than Firefox.

I see...
Now that my firefox also started acting weird when loading a thread page. It always keeps loading. Everything is already loaded within couple seconds, but it won't stop loading until i stop it.
Tried to use the extension firebug to *see* what was going on, even though I have no idea what i was seeing... I don't understand a thing about those scripts and codes...
I did find this error [fetch_object("currentPost") is null] and below it, description is "(?)()showth...2446654 (line 1) event = load"
Hi!
Sorry to bring this up again, but since it's not solved yet and I am having bad performance with Firefox, too...
I noticed that every time I enter the forum firefox is busying one thread for 100%, i.e. my dual core is 50% busy. This stays for, say, one or two minutes until the CPU is idle again. It seems that Firefox only uses that single thread, or at least is waiting for it to complete whatever it does, because while it's busy every action takes one second to complete. For instance, when I then scroll down three lines, it will take three seconds, one line each second. This makes the forum nearly unusable during that time.
Once the CP is idle again, it stays that way for a while but sometimes the problem happens again, e.g. when I open another thread.
The problem does not happen for Internet Explorer, and also not for Firefox when I use the IE Tab 2 plugin. Also, I did not see such a problem on any other web page with Firefox.
Any suggestions ?

Sorry, not for me. Just now as I write this reply at work, firefox occupies 25% on my quad core machine and is laggy as hell.
Edit: I tried again with all add-ons deactivated, and it's fast! Will figure out which one is causin the lag and post later.
Edit 2: Turns out it was the Linkification 1.3.9 add-on which I configured to use "Thorough Mode". This option is described with "Page load time may load slower", so it's totally my fault. Would have never noticed if you would not have mentioned that it works for you Will use normal mode for Linkification -- pretty fast everything now!
After a spirited browsing session here at XDA -- peaking at about 15 tabs and 50 pages -- I find that my browser will permanently increase its memory footprint by 100-300 MB. Even once I close all the XDA tabs, that memory is not freed up until I restart the browser.
I have observed this behavior for years, and always with various versions of my main browser: Opera. This site has many great features, and loads fast, but it would still be nice if this wasn't happening.
Have you guys observed the same heavy RAM usage and/or leak?
My system:
Win 7
i7 920
6 GB DDR3
Actually yes I just did with firefox. In the past I never had this problem actually but lately I only use chrome for xda because firefox always gets stuck.
Firefox is not as bad as ie. But when I load up any page from xda in ie, it is so intensive on my processor that it makes the cpu fan ramp up. Then when I scroll, it is scroll and wait for the page to actually scroll and stop before I can click on anything. It is that intensive on system resources.
well an i7 920 and 6gb of ram is a pretty beastly pc, you don't need a 8-core cpu and 16 gigs (like i have) to surf a forum
It is very normal. Because web is powerful today.
For example, Firefox use a lot of memory: 10 tabs = 250MB memory
Firefox 11 improved memory usage, but still high.
All browsers has the same issue.
Maybe it the time to upgrade your memory. Memory is very cheap today
I am NOT upgrading my pc because one website is not acting right
Obvious, but have you tried clearing cache & temp internet files? There must be a reason because I've got a 2.4 AMD (dual core) with 4GB RAM and I never have the problem. I use Chrome 100% of the time though, so can't vouch for any of the other browsers.
I'm afraid I can't help you with opera but you can try firefox with memoryfox addon. It actively frees memory blocks. Visit www browsermemory.com
One or two times I noticed the problem too but for me it wasn't such a problem to deal with it. I had a quick look on the source of the site and it looks okay, the only active contents are ajax and javascripts, rest is just text, static images & css. The hog might be one of the ajax/javascripts.
I also use Opera (still prefer Firefox though ) and according to the task manager: Memory usage = 16k (average) & Virtual memory = 151k (average) when browsing XDA alone (1 tab).

That's a mighty presumptuous statement. Regardless of if I'm browsing XDA or not, at any of the forums I frequent and if I have many tabs open eventually my Browser begins to Hog my memory, Such is the way the web is.
Do any of the people with the issue use ad-blockers? Ads are generally the culprit with things like this as the site has no (or little) control over what content they load. Also, having 50 flash files playing on separate tabs will definitely have an impact. As tigermess said, the site is mostly just text and images so it's next to nothing.
That would explain why I don't have the issue as I don't have ads turned on.

You are the one making the presumptuous statement. I don't use tabs. I usually have one site open at a time. In the rare instance I have more than one site open, it is in a separate browser session. And that is rare. I have deleted cache and temp . I don't run an ad blocker on my pc.
I am actually running on a fresh (but updated) restore of my hard drive from factory condition. I restored last week. It was doing it before and it's still acting the same way. Both in ie and ff. The only common thread is Eset smart security. I have not disabled to test that. I am leary of doing that here with all of the trash that loads with the ads here.
But when you are browsing fine, and you browse to this web site and your computer slows to a crawl, and the only thing open is this site, then that, sir, is not presumptuous!

Fair enough.
And not to sound like a jerk, but here are your options.
1) Deal with it
B) Don't come to XDA.
In all honesty I could see that you are experiencing problems, but XDA is built on vbulletin. Which while vbulletin scales pretty good to work with XDA, its still a crappy program. Then again the sheer amount of activity on XDA precludes us from using other Forum software, and makes our site run slow on some peoples set ups.
XDA is the site that uses less memory on my PC and i don't have a super machine.. unlike is a pc of the stone age..
I use chrome with adblock plus, my pc is a celeron D 360 with 768 mb of RAM..
What & where's the problem?? I recommend you use an ad blocker and/or another browser..
Flash isn't friendly with any cpu and ram..

iii) Discuss it. Maybe someone with some insight on the back-end of XDA will chime in with advice. Maybe they don't even know some people have a problem and they will be able to make a change on their side. Poor performance and/or ad blocking aren't in anyone's best interest.
Other vbulletin forums don't gobble memory for me. I think that XDA is unlike the average vbulletin forum.
My computer is a single core hyperthreading 3.21GHz <--- (basically a wannabe duo core) with 1gb ram. I use chrome, with adblocker and my browser NEVER lags or anything, even with MANY XDA pages open...

There in is the rub. XDA is a very large forum, we have a full time person, optimizing and maintaining our servers, as I'm sure you can imagine. SO I will hit him up and see if he says anything. But we have discussed this before, in the year or more have upgraded many of our servers to improve the speed.
So while I may have seemed like a jerk, its not because I don't care, its because we are constantly trying to improve the performance of XDA. However, with the numerous different computer setups and internet connections, not everyone is going to have a blazing fast experience, some of that it outwith our control.
Thank you. All we ask is to have your person look into it.
I will do what I can from my end. I don't think it is a vbulletin problem. That and server issues would only account for slow page loads. They wouldn't account for bringing a computer to its knees. When the page loads fully and I scroll my mouse, there is a 5-10 second lag before the page actually scrolls.
I like xda and I don't want to use ad blockers if that is the culprit as that it's how you survive and pay the bills. But there is some bad code somewhere.
I saw a few add blockers that will let you select what adds to disable. Maybe I can narrow it down some.
All we are asking is to look into and not a canned like it or leave it option.

recent changes causing continuous refresh of page
I use Firefox 22.0. I have NoScript installed.
About a week ago, whenever I come to XDA, my page refreshes continuously. I have to hit the "stop" button at just the right moment to get the loop to stop long enough for me to read anything.
I tried temporarily allowing all scripts on this page. This did not change the behavior.
P.S. This only happens if I am logged in. If I log out, behavior returns to normal...

I would love to be able to fix this issue, but I can not recreate this problem so I can't push a fix. Any web developers seeing the reloading problem who can point out the issue?
The only thing I can figure out is that it seems to happen to people with NoScript or AdBlock installed, but I've run the site with both and it doesn't happen to me (in multiple browsers/os). But then again, some people say they don't have it installed and it still does the reloading.
Changing to the 2013 - 1024 theme seems to fix it for folks.
I use an Adblock and I have no issues with the website in that matter. The only thing I encounter at the moment is that I need to login on every page. It seems like I can't be remembered for some reason. Will clear cache tomorrow tho.

That's a Chrome issue. I don't have to login every time I go to a new thread but it asks me to login every few hours. Loads of people have reported the issue but afaik there's no known fix other than using a different browser.
I even get logged out on Opera Mini, though I get logged in after clicking on any link on forum, so I don't think it's only Chrome issue
Good Answer!

This has nothing to do with the original issue. Ads should not be able to crash the browser. I've had them get very slow, we try to weed out any advertisements that are unduly taxing to system resources. We don't pick which ads run on the site. If you are still having issues, you can open a new thread with a full description of the problem. It doesn't sound like it would just be XDA if your computer is crashing.
Closing thread for now as original issue is fixed.
I'm having some really bad issues which are making the forums not usable. I haven't really changed anything so am not sure what the issue is.
1) The fonts and spacing is very odd, with sometimes larger or smaller font than expected and sometimes it's all scrunched in on one side.
2) Ads will often overlay on top of the forums, the sidebar on the right will sometimes be right in the middle of the forum page blocking my view, I don't see any way to move it.
3) Very jerky scrolling, sometimes scrolling jumps an entire page, other times it is just kind of ratchety, I turn my mouse wheel and it seems like every scroll takes a half second to catch up. My mouse is set to scroll 3 lines, but I've tried it with 1 line and it's the same. It's the same with smooth scrolling turned on or off.
4) The forums in general are very very slow, I mean unusable slow. A forum page may take upwards of 10 seconds to load, it seems like the ads are what's slowing it down because I can see the page stall, then the ad loads and everything works.
5) Most of the elements on the forum webpage seem to overlap each other, and many elements don't show up, or don't show a graphic but you can still mouse hover and see it's there.
I'm using Internet Explorer 11 on windows 10 on a surface pro 3 (i5/8gm RAM). Any help or suggestions for streamlining would be appreciated. Included a screen shot of the odd fonts and spacing. Zooming, or CTRL+ +/- doesn't help.

First let me say that I'm moving this thread to About xda-developers since that's where site issues and discussion belong.
About your issue specifically: I haven't seen anyone making this complaint, but I do have a suggestion. Internet Explorer is terrible at rendering websites. The worst bar none. Since you are on Windows 10, I'd switch to the Edge browser (even Microsoft wants you to). Or you could switch to Firefox (my personal favorite), Chrome, or any other derivative of those. Microsoft only included IE in Windows 10 for backward compatibility and so I'd quit using it. I even got my 70 year old father in law to give up his beloved Internet Explorer. If he can do it, you can too! :highfive:
Thanks, hopefully someone here can offer a solution. I'm kind of stuck on IE11 until Edge gets extensions, but the reality is that millions of people still use IE11 and it should be supported.
I stopped using IE because I was having a lot of the problems you describe, especially the sticking and locking up ones. I switched to Chrome and have not looked back. Edge is too plain and like you said, lacks extensions. You are not stuck on IE though. Other browsers, like Chrome, Firefox, Maxthon, Opera, etc use the same extensions IE does. Have you tried opening up the XDA page in another browser just to troubleshoot? If you want to stay on IE, you can try deleting your IE cache and junk files, reset it to default settings, or even try putting the XDA webpage in compatibility mode and see if that helps. Try opening up IE with all plug-ins disabled, again, just for troubleshooting . Another note about IE. Microsoft just dropped support for versions 10 and below, and I will bet version 11 will be the last of it.
I had this problem recently. It's good to see it wasn't just my usual bad luck!
I do most of my modding at work (sshh..) and our IT department has recently moved everybody over to IE from Chrome. It is noticeably worse at displaying this forum and is, to be honest, a horrible program to use. I even miss Navigator..
Good to see I'm not the only one suffering, though!
I also have a lot of trouble using IE11 on XDA.
For the past few months I have had all the problems listed in the original post.
Now it seems like the page layout problems has been fixed, but for now I can not load a single page on XDA without IE11 locking up.
I have had more problems loading pages on XDA the past few months, than I have had on all other websites combined for the past 10 years - nothing but trouble on XDA..
It must be possible to make this site compatible with IE11, right?
(FYI: I am not using IE11 to write this post - it would be impossible)

Suggestion - Remove the description from forum homepage, keep the same on forum display pages only.. will save lot of load time.
Thanks.
