&lt;p&gt;I agree with you and somehow I have this hunch that the ASP.NET 2.0 profile feature may be one of the causes for this. I have seen severe performance degradation while using Profiles on sites with large number of members. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I would love to know how the CS is configured for this particular site, is load balancing being used, are any load tests being done,..etc. Lots of interesting questions. I think someone must be working on the bottlenecks to see real reasons behind the slowness of this site. It would be good if the same&amp;nbsp;are shared with us for the benefit of all.&lt;/p&gt;

It's almost as if the page was designed to &lt;em&gt;make&lt;/em&gt; you wait.&amp;nbsp; &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Try posting a message, then give the page 3 seconds or so. Click on the MyPosts link at the top, and you should see that the new post is at the top of your list. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This problem is definitely annoying, though. I have to have 3 tabs open to this site at the same time in order to not go nuts during the wait.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>Consistently slow...</title><link>http://forums.asp.net/thread/1586849.aspx</link><pubDate>Tue, 20 Feb 2007 16:52:26 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">4c671506-2930-414c-a40b-8bf57ded5924:1586849</guid><dc:creator>JoshStodola</dc:creator><slash:comments>0</slash:comments><comments>http://forums.asp.net/thread/1586849.aspx</comments><wfw:commentRss>http://forums.asp.net/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=188&amp;PostID=1586849</wfw:commentRss><description>&lt;p&gt;Hi,&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Why is this web site constantly slow?&amp;nbsp; Every time I view a forum, view my recent posts, post a message, pick my nose (well ok, not this one) I am forced to sit and wait for an average of 45 seconds to a minute.&amp;nbsp; I am not exagurating either.&amp;nbsp; I know it's not my internet.&amp;nbsp; I am aware of the number of users here, but still, this wait is&amp;nbsp;often so ridiculous!&amp;nbsp; Especially when posting a message, and I click "Post"&amp;nbsp; it &lt;u&gt;always&lt;/u&gt; takes more than a minute to refresh the thread I just posted to.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;You would think a forum dedicated to web applications would have&amp;nbsp;much&amp;nbsp;better performance than this does.&amp;nbsp; I think it is all due to the fluff.&amp;nbsp; I mean, the top of the page (navigation)&amp;nbsp;loads quickly, but the content takes forever.&amp;nbsp; I dont expect you to change the design of the site or anything, but it would be nice to have maybe a lighter version, possible text only.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I dont know, but if I was a JSP/ColdFusion programmer, and wanted to start with ASP.NET, if I came to these forums for help and realized how slow it was, it would give a pretty bad impression on the performance of ASP.NET&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Something to consider.........&lt;/p&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
