Just a heads up.
After discussing it with the server host, we think the recent slowdowns are being caused by bot attack. I'm gonna start by enabling Cloudflare and see if that resolves anything.
This should be fairly smooth, but I don't know if you'll notice any downtime. If you use a high security browser, like me, you might have to tick a box when you access the site.
It's probably gonna happen tomorrow or Friday, it depends when I get time to figure out how it works.

Re: Potential disruption
Cloudflare switchover in progress. There may be temporary downtime within the next 24 hours.
When it kicks in, the forums will not be accessible from China. So if you go to China on holiday you are SOL. ;)
I may edit this behaviour in future after I monitor it.
Blocked Singapore too and Facebook's bots. Will continue to monitor.
