is the forum broke - or my browser?

Nope, it must be the compressed patch I'm attaching. Weird.

We were updating some parts of the forum, so that may have contributed. Please refresh a few times, and you should see a new sidebar on the right (main forum page only). Let us know if you continue to have trouble.

Thanks,

I think there's a max limit to size as I've experienced the same thing, but only when posting a larger compressed patch.

I just zipped it and added it as an attachment and that seemed to work just fine.

I have been experience a lot of slow load times and hanging pages.. Glad to hear improvements are underway.

It may be a problem specific to the patch, a small and simple monophonic Schroeder reverb someone posted recently, it simply will not load.

And this tiny patch:

took over 6 seconds to load; ever since the forum location changed (last year??) it has radically slowed down my forum browsing, pages take forever to load and it's becoming a real PITA.

Hmm. I never looked at it too closely. It's happened to me a couple of times and each time I just attach a zip instead (assuming it was size).
