Ask HN: Why is Yahoo Mail service so slow? Slower than turtle

I have stopped using Yahoo Mail since long. But was forced by circumstances to use it twice ! Once when my uncle was out of town and wanted to forward some email in his account to someone. I did that. What happened was once I clicked on forward it took 5 minutes to open the To box and after that when I entered the email ID and clicked on send. It took 30 minutes to complete the operation till then it just showed me the circular loading icon. Second time: I had to check one of my old godaddy account information. I opened yahoo.com, logged in mail. It took 15 minutes to load. Then i clicked on mail to read it did not respond. I reloaded thrice and it responded after 15 minutes again. I am using Gmail, Facebook, etc. None of them are so slow at my place. Why does Yahoo Mail service is slow like turtle ? I think even turtle's are more faster than it. My system configuration : Processor : Intel i3 processor, 6 GB RAM, Latest version of Chrome and 0.5 Mbps Internet connection
