Jollygoodfellow Posted April 27, 2013 Posted April 27, 2013 Howdy For those in the Philippines, I am trialing CDN to see if it speeds up page load times. This won't be noticed if you are in the US as the hosting server is located there but what I would like to know from those in the Philippines is whether they notice any difference in speed. CDN is content delivery network which means a server located closer to your location may serve files to you which should make it faster as the files do not have to travel as far. That may not be the best way to describe it but do a google search if you want a better explanation. Maybe do a hard refresh of your browser and let me know if things are better. :cheersty: 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OnMyWay Posted April 27, 2013 Posted April 27, 2013 We have Smart over the air internet and it can be spotty. I usually attribute slowness to the slow internet service. Right now the internet is working good. I browsed several pages on the forum and they were good. I browsed Yahoo Philippines and Yahoo US and they seem about the same as the forum. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
