Suggestion -- Maybe we should all ration our use of DU right now
The site is going really sloooowww right now. Understandable because this is the kind of situatoin where a lot of us turn to DU more heavily to keep up.

But maybe we should all think twice before hitting the refresh button, check in slightly less often, don't post quite as much. That way the load would be a little less. And as a result when we do use DU, it could be a faster experience.

Just a suggestion. I'm going to try that.

1. I am having no difficulty, not slow at all
It could be a disruption in the network affecting your region.
