Over about the past week or so, the Tantabus.ai main page, and image pages, have been extremely slow to load, occasionally taking well over a minute to complete. I’m on a 200-Mbps cable connection, and I’ve performed a variety of ping and speed tests to confirm the problem lies not on my end. Other ’boorus are performing as expected*.
In addition to the Webpages loading slowly, image file downloads also sometimes slow to the low-KiB/s range, and result in taking several minutes to complete, or (more lately) complete failure.
Note that this is NOT ALWAYS the case. It’s a very intermittent problem; one image page might load fine, the next could take two or three minutes, and it seems to have absolutely NO relation to the file size or content type presented.
This ‘booru is the only one I visit that has been having these problems, to an extent that interferes with using the site. I’m not mad or anything; I just wanted to bring it to attention, so that it can be fixed for all. :)
* Derpibooru is having its own (Cloudflare-related?) hiccups now. No time-outs, just slow page-loading.
–> And just now, I had an SSL handshake failure (error code 525). Hmm….
FYI, my system is running Arch Linux, using Firefox 146.0.1 – yes, I know, I need to update to 147. :P
EDIT: I’ve been made aware by support on Discord that there’s a buttload of maintenance going on with Cloudflare right now…but mainly in Europe? I’m in the Midwest, though. Weird.
