EVE Gate and Forums running slowly?

EVE Gate seems to be running really slowly for me, just tried to change characters and gave up.

Anyone else having a problem, or is it my ISP.

Rest of the internet seems ok, just done a speedtest and seem to be getting quite respectable speeds of 40+Mbps over a few different servers.

I've noticed the forums seem to be a lot slower than they used to be, but that could just be me thinking they used to be faster.

Ping statistics for 87.237.39.190:
Packets: Sent = 4, Received = 4, Lost = 0 (0% loss),
Approximate round trip times in milli-seconds:
Minimum = 14ms, Maximum = 16ms, Average = 15ms

That seems fairly reasonable with my extremely limited knowledge of internet and networking.

Any ideas?

EVE Gate is indeed slow.

Probably this — the constant adding and removing posts could conceivably create a bit of fragmentation that makes the forum (and caching) spaz out and sputter.
