Wiki is getting increasingly frustrating to use. I have gone through three browsers and each in turn has had to be abandoned because wiki is so slow any attempt at contact times out. Since the new logo was introduced the situation has become impossible. Is it a co-incidence already existing problems have become even worse since our new large logo was introduced? If it is the problem, then please bin the damn thing. There is no point having a snazzy new logo if it so slows up the process of downloading as to make wiki on occasions uncontactable.
I am thoroughly fed up with the mess at this stage.

Hmm, let me think -- is it a miniscule increase in bandwidth usage?
Or is it more likely to be related to a complete rebuild of the system with new parts which haven't been thoroughly tested and some of which don't fit right and are temporary until new bits can be bought?
It's *gotta* be the logo. Yeah. Must be it.

Regarding timeouts, they seem to have entirely disappeared (at least on en, browsing/editing as a logged-in user) within the past hour, and in fact it's now as fast as I ever remember it being.

Made me think of an interesting way of slowing down vandals and such: Throttle bandwidth on their IP to verrry slow...
