  Has anyone else noticed the speed of WP.com increase dramatically in the past couple of days, especially yesterday and today? For a while there, WP.com, and in particular, my blog dashboard, were going *extremely* slowly. Now they’re flying, with my Dashboard pages loading almost instantly.

  Anyone else notice this? If it’s something you WP.com chaps did, kudos!

  There’s already a pair of threads on the subject.

  Care to point the way, drmike? I did a few searches and I’m not seeing them.

  I expect drmike has gone offline – have you read the pink sticky at the head of the forum? http://wordpress.com/forums/topic.php?id=5003&replies=9
  There seem to be people saying many things. I have noticed myself quicker response time but setting that aside I have noticed some other delays when it comes to posting to my blog, as well as, delayed comments and delayed archive entries.

  Granted both of those threads were started a while ago but folks have continued to drop comments into them recently.

  Load balancing is a continuous challenge for any growing service. Luckily we have Barry, Matt and others continuing to tune and deploy servers.
