Is your favorite marinara sauce Rao's Homemade too? That's Morrissey's favorite when he is on the road without Nancy.
Has anyone seen issues with the site header loading slowly recently? For example the header is blank for 10 seconds or longer then it suddenly loads. I'm investigating an issue with one of the ad providers.
Apologies, just seen this.
The site is fine on computer.
On tablet and phone, the time it takes to call up the page can be very slow (connection / browser / isp issues ruled out).
My observation is that the more the site links off site on the front page - the longer the load. The tour page is painful on mobile if there are several tweets and YouTube links being posted in one thread page also. This became more noticeable after the change over and the news picked up a bit.
Hope this helps,
Regards,

Hi David,
I'm on 100 up 100 down fiber optic connection (UK) - gamers would die for my ping
The banner itself can be slow, but definitely on mobile (via Wi-Fi or 4G) the page can really slow right down. similarly, embedded youtube videos can glitch, play out of synch or stutter - yet play without issue on youtube itself.
If I remember, I will try and video a tablet or mobile loading of the main page url and post it here for you.
Kind regards,
FWD.
I don't understand this cyber-talk, but I approve.There were some network upgrades a day or two ago at the ISP so things might be a little faster now. It is based in Los Angeles so distance still is a factor. I am investigating moving off the servers and into a cloud-based solution but to serve from multiple locations would likely add to the cost of running the site significantly.
David, I don't know if this has anything to do with the issue but I was just trying to click on some advertisement on this site, it was about American Glasses, I believe, just to see the glasses but I didn't get on their site.
I got a 401 error and was redirected to a website page that was nonspecific.
But by layout recognizable as a Morrissey-solo webpage.
I could leave that easily but by trying again was redirected to the same page.
It just might be if someone clicks on the advertisements and not getting there it might influence the site performance.
