It still slows down sites for me, like 20s loading time. Don’t know what’s the problem :S

Which sites? All of them?

OutCast · wrote on 7 Jun 2010, 08:59

yeah, starport, fllistserver, flserver.de…

Does it wait on googlecode.com or flcnb.net? Check your browsers status bar when loading the site.

Try to refresh the site with F5, maybe there is a cached javascript still referencing googlecode.

It waits on flcnb.net. Cache is cleared every time browser shuts down.

It also waits only for fl_community_dyn_headerbar.js, and it seems it doesn’t get it at all 'cause there’re no dynamic headbar on pages.

It takes 25 seconds to get this script in separate tab.

In firefox it affected 2 scripts but only for the first time i opened the page. Different caching, i guess.
It also did wait those 20s, so the headbar is there.

If you ping flcnb.net, do you also get 25s?

What does “tracert flcnb.net” give you?

I think flcnb.net doesn’t respond to ping requests…

C:\>tracert flcnb.net -w 60000

Tracing route to flcnb.net [87.98.247.19]

It also doesn’t respond to pings from from my server. And also to ping -w 60000.

It’s not a problem with ping, really, you can see that 304 replies are very fast.

Is fl_community_dyn_headerbar.js the only script that takes so long for you to load?

Try fl_community_headbar_script.js for example.

OutCast · wrote on 8 Jun 2010, 15:52

Yeah, others load instantly, at least in Opera.

I also opened flserver.de on my server, there were no slowdowns… I just don’t know what’s the matter with this script =(

Probably it might have something to do in relation to Opera. The dynamic script uses browser funtions to retrieve the sie of the screen. And there are more things than in the previous version that is done in the dynamic script.

Just my ideas about that script…

OutCast · wrote on 9 Jun 2010, 06:43

Oh well… for now, i just blocked that script with adblocker in my antivirus. Hope this is a temporary solution %))

Crazy · wrote on 14 Jun 2010, 06:36

It’s working well till now.

Thanks

Finally found the reason - Kaspersky Internet Security. Either its web-AV or adblocker didn’t like this particular script.
Added it to white list and all works fine
