...having problems with AB going very slowly or freezing completely today?
I've scanned with Malwarebytes, cleared anything that might have needed clearing and am not running anything I don't need to run, and it's still doing it. Have tried another computer and an iPad, no better there either.
If it's only on one website where you are suffering delays, then it is unlikely to be your pc/laptop at fault. So no amount of dithering with your settings will make any significant improvement.
Only server side improvements would improve matters and they are not under your control.
I've had that happen occasionally but it's been really bad for the last four or five days, Baldric....only on AB.....I thought Ed had found a button to keep me quiet......☺
