Lately I've been finding that Dynasty reader is transferring image files at below 50kb/s speeds. Is Dynasty in need of money and that's why they're using such poor servers? Is there ongoing DDoS attacks? What's causing the recent huge slowdowns?

It's working fine for me. May your wifi was slow at that moment.

It's still occurring for me and I have 200mbit/sec internet. Even making this post took several seconds for it to post.

I did some tracerouting and might have figured out the reason. The routing is nuts. It goes California US --> Colorado US --> Illinois US --> Quebec Canada (why Canada?) --> New Jersey US --> United Kingdom --> France or UK --> France or Germany --> France or Germany --> France.

Is anyone else in California having really slow speeds?

I'm in Ontario, and it's sometimes slow when loading big pages, but overall just fine.

im not having any issues.

I've confirmed with my ISP that they're not the cause so I'm pretty sure it's the servers. Or rather, the lack of any kind of CDN, even a free one.

Wanna set up Squid?

Just sign up for cloudflare, free global CDN.

Mods can we get an update on this?

The only thing that would have had any chance of affecting a site like Dynasty if they were using it, from my understanding, is just the automatic https rewrites system but that's only if Dynasty switched over to using https in the first place.
