❓ Slow Load of Steemit Blog Page❓steemCreated with Sketch.

in steemit •  7 years ago  (edited)

Lately (well, for a while now), I've noticed that with the Chrome browser it's taking somewhere around 5 seconds to load my blog page.

I can see with the Chrome > View > Developer > Developer Tools that it's due to the loading of the MANY @steemit images that we all have on our blog page.

I've researched a bit on this and have seen suggestions like enabling the Chrome GPU rasterization flag, etc.

I also loaded the Brave browser just to give a try but, out-of-the-box, it appears that the sluggishness is still there.

I'm seeing this issue on a mid-2011 iMac with a 2.5 GHz Intel Core i5 processor,so maybe I need better hardware.

I know there are lots of browser flags/tweaks that can be done, but not sure of all the security impacts of adjusting them?

For example, when I goto chrome://gpu, I get this:

Anyone else having this kind of latency issue and any suggestions on how to remedy it?

Thanks in advance!!!

i have the same but if i clse my brwoser and try again its all oke.

Seems to work OK right now. Then again, I'm pretty slow at most things on here, so hard to tell for sure.

It's not that big of a deal, it's just that I only notice it when going from some other page to my blog page. Weird!

Thank for sharing this post @cognoscere

it may due to some cache problem try clearing that happened few times with me

Good suggestion, which I tried, but no luck.

then i am not sure about the technical part of it :( hope it gets sorted out soon :)

It's been happening to me for the past 2 or so weeks and I thought maybe it's my connection , but everyone but steemit is fine . It's sort of weird , maybe too many users at once ?

I wish I knew the cause, but ... no luck thus far.

Mmm clear your cache. And use iobit systemcare to clean up all residual things. If that does not work uninstall and reinstall. If that does not solve it reply and we search on. It is strange that it is just steemit that gives you those issues.

Great work .

@cognoscere Did you find out what the reason was ? I have the same problem here with chrome. It works fine with safari.
