FOG lagging very much last 3 days

[size=14pt]

For the past 24hrs the FoG has become very slow again down here.

Anyone else noticing this?
 
Yes, funny enough this thread popped up just after a much longer than normal FOG start-up.

It has been slow (ish) through most of today.

Perhaps it needs some WD40.

.........Very........................................................................... slow.
 
Pretty snappy now for me, not sure if Shane fixed it already? First time I've been on today, and I've usually felt all the previous slow downs that others have mentioned.
 
Slightly off-topic - is the FOG server related at all to the USA Festool site server? I've had trouble for weeks with downloading  supplementary manuals, guides etc. In the end I'm resorting to getting them from non-Festool sites.

I was having trouble yesterday.  Seems ok so far this morning.

I have had problems with getting manuals from non-Festool sites.  Rick's site, i can not get any of the manuals.  some, I can get thru FireFox, but not all.  That has been going on for a long time.

Since I've only really tried downloading manuals from usa.festool.com (directly through Google), I tried the actual site without any luck.  I've also tried pinging and traceroute from multiple servers - no dice!  I'd be very surprised if the website's up at all..

For whatever reason, the guides / supplemental manuals are only on the USA Festool site, not the international one.  They only have the almost-entirely-useless basic manuals  [crying]

Perhaps you mis-typed, but if not, the Festool USA website is http://festoolusa.com

Ah, embarrassing.  The address got muddled up at some point in my tiny brain.  However, I still can't view the site!  Perhaps some of us lowly Antipodeans are blocked - traceroutes don't seem to work from certain Australian servers.
 
You might want to try using the menu bar at the top of this page for Festool websites and see if that works.

I also just successfully tried downloading manuals at Rick's website and was able to do so.  Here is the link to the page I went to:  http://www.waterfront-woods.com/festool/

Peter, I have no trouble getting to Rick's site.  It is when i try to view any of his manuals that the entire screen just goes black and some message tells me i am being blocked from the page.  I tried many times, with same problem.  I finally went to my computer guru and he tried with same results.  He finally dailed the page with Fire Fox and found he could get the page he was trying (The manual for small domino)  I am using Safari.  After Guru finished playing with the computer, and left the scene, I tried.  I found i could, indeed get and print the domino manual.  BUT, i cannot get any of Rick's other manuals whether I use Safari or FireFox.  If i want a manual, I just E-mail my son or daughter, tell them what i am looking for and go back to something else.  sooner or later, I will get a printable version back in my E-mail.  A very simple fix so I don't worry.

The FOG is grinding to a halt again - perhaps  Kim Jong-Un is targeting us.
