Still lots to fix, you will experience slowdowns


Recommended Posts

Still seeing it take about 10 seconds for my browser to actually start loading a Neowin forum page, and posting a small post just a few minutes ago took about 15 - 20 seconds to post.

Just like to make Devs aware, sometimes video linking from youtube doesn't work

https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/1159840-youtube-links-not-becoming-video/page-2#entry595770478

 

And the like and quotes on occasion will not go directly to the post (some likes don't show up neither)

 

Just noticed that clicking from minispy to the last post didn't work just now (6:30am UK time)

I can see the other posts being liked, but I dont see it on my own post. I get the notification for the like, but when I go to the post, its blank. Likes on other posts appear

 

Is it just me?

Testing it, did it work?

(I clicked like before replying)

When quoting more than one user or quoting more than one post, like I did in https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/1159942-paris-air-show-le-bourget-2013/#entry595770808

the quote box stops stating who I am quoting, is this something broken?

yay :D

Multiquote works fine.

Slower than molasses in the middle of a Michigan winter, again, today!

 

One post I made a few minutes ago took almost 4 minutes to go through.

 

As another poster said in another thread I was just reading, before getting linked to here, said how this site is a speed bump on the internet. Couldn't have said that better myself!

 

Site has been sporadic at best for I don't know through how many upgrades and days afterwards!

Has anyone else's profile picture gotten broken on the front of the site (reading news, writing comments) but shows up fine in the forum and account settings pages? Mine got broken since the upgrade (synced from Facebook). Tried removing it and syncing again but no go...

As a past and potential subscriber, it's hard to accept things when the average page load speed goes from very fast (yesterday) to back to the normal, quite slow, 5-10 seconds to load a page experience (today).  I personally would gladly give up every Neowin hack, mod, added feature, tweak, like system, stars, etc. etc. if the most simple action of browsing the forums was faster.  I could be completely misguided here, but before all of the added features were enabled, the speed of browsing the forums was lightning fast compared to what it was for the past several months.  I am hopeful that the current slowness is just due to work being done, but based on past experience, that's not a justified hope.

 

If i had a vote, I would vote for speed, not features.  Just my $0.02.  Keep up the good work!  (Y)

    • Nvidia 610.62 driver lands with big bug fixes and Empulse support by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe There is a new driver available for Nvidia GeForce hardware owners, and it's carrying a whole lot of bug fixes. The WHQL-certified 610.62 Game Ready driver is also adding support for Empulse. Empulse lands from 1047 Games. That may be familiar to first-person shooter fans, as this is the studio that has been behind Splitgate and the Splitgate: Arena Reloaded sequel.

    • After enabling it in about:config, customize, density, compact; the toolbar/address bar gets smaller vertically. I enabled Nova, I notice the tab bar/title bar is a bit larger vertically now? Everything always becomes a waste of space.
    • Microsoft's Copilot Cowork now generally available with usage-based billing by Pradeep Viswanathan Back in March, Microsoft first revealed Copilot Cowork, a new agentic AI experience in Microsoft 365 Copilot through which users can assign tasks to AI to complete in the background. After testing the service with a limited set of customers in Research Preview for a few weeks, Microsoft announced the general availability of Copilot Cowork to customers in the Frontier program on March 30. Today, Microsoft announced the general availability of Copilot Cowork worldwide for Microsoft 365 Copilot customers. The company also highlighted that Cowork became the fastest-growing feature in the history of its Frontier program. Unlike regular Copilot Chat, Copilot Cowork can run complex, long-running, multi-tool tasks from start to finish in the cloud by using organizational context through Work IQ. When compared to Claude Cowork, Microsoft claims that Copilot Cowork will be 30% to 40% cheaper on average with its Microsoft 365 connector. For now, Copilot Cowork runs on Anthropic models, including Opus 4.8 and Sonnet 4.6. However, Frontier customers can now use GPT-5.5. Microsoft also announced Cowork 1, a secure fine-tuned model coming in the next few weeks, which is designed to handle everyday Copilot tasks at a lower cost. To access Copilot Cowork, a Microsoft 365 Copilot user subscription is required. Usage is billed separately through Copilot Credits, based on model use, context retrieval, tool calls, and runtime. Pay-as-you-go pricing is set at $0.01 per Copilot Credit. To offer IT teams full control over usage costs, Microsoft provides spending limits, usage alerts, user-level controls, reporting, and prepaid usage plans for organizations. Usage-based billing begins today. However, Frontier customers who used Cowork between March 30 and June 16 will not be billed until July 1, 2026. The Microsoft 365 Copilot app now includes a toggle to enter the full Cowork experience. Microsoft is also adding partner plugins, with Enosix, Harvey, LSEG, Miro, monday.com, Moody’s, Morningstar, S&P Global Energy, and TeamsMaestro available now. Adobe, Atlassian, Box, Canva, Databricks, and others are coming soon.
