I cant find where the threads are for the CTWUG technical stuff so apologies if this is a duplicate post.
I’m experiencing extremely slow browsing of the forums at the moment and each thread is taking forever to load properly. Is there something wrong with the server at the moment? My trace to the server doesn’t show any issues:

Then, on another note. When checking the latency to the forums I noticed that it’s being hosted internationally at the moment. Shouldn’t we be supporting local hosting vendors and in particular Cape Town based data centres?
