A few editors on the English Wikipedia have been noticing a problem since around January 15 of "connection timed out" messages, very slow performance, and being logged out.
Preview is getting hard to use because so slow, or failing entirely, and some edits are not being saved. Some discussion here -- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Village_pump_%28technical%29#Slowness...
Does anyone know whether there's work going on that might be causing it?

I'll second everything problem you described, Sarah. The site has been extremely slow and unpredictable for days now.
