Another bug report/oddity: Loading any page when I'm logged in has started taking forever. If logged out, it doesn't take long to load. For example: This comments page loads in 981ms when I'm logged out. If I log in as axod, it loads in 7.5 seconds. Maybe it's just my account :/ Hopefully it's not a 'moderation feature'. Maybe due to a reasonably high comment count for my account? idk but it makes HN pretty boring waiting for page loads. Is anyone else seeing this behavior?

Wow. Not here, but over the past few months, the app has been consistently fickle about loading up the userinfo page and the threads page. Sometimes it works. Sometimes not. On really high-load days, it was taking 7-15 seconds and then just stopping to show the page. Paul said a week or two ago (I think) that he was tweaking the GC because of the load on the box. Not sure if that could be a factor or not.

  I've noticed a difference since he announced the changes to GC. There is perhaps more frequently a noticable delay, but the delay is shorter and eventual page load much more reliable -- I seldom experience a timeout / blank screen, now. Formerly, things would tend to load either almost instantaneously or not at all. E.g. comment pages. Now, there is not infrequently a second or three's delay, but then the page does indeed appear. I find this much more preferable.

    Sorry for the initial duplicate posting of the parent. When I clicked the button "Reply", I was redirected to: http://news.ycombinator.com/threads?id=pg http://news.ycombinator.com/threads?id=pg instead of back to this comments thread. Thinking I'd hit a glitch, I backed up and tried again. So, I did hit a glitch in the redirection, but after my comment was processed and accepted.

      Just wanted to chime in and say that I've seen behavior like this a few times. After submitting a comment, I've been redirected to someone else's threads?id page.
