A lot of the moodle.org services seem to have got very slow or not at all over the last few days.
Something wrong?
I've noticed the same thing.

Same problems for me since 2-3 days. But it seems Ok NOW 
Confirmed - now and then loading pages from moodle.org freezes for a minute or you need to close browser and try again - or connection to database is lost...
I already thought somebody has "blocked me out" from moodle.org

My main hassle has been with the bug tracker which is like treacle. Plus, it seems to have fallen out with Safari on the Mac - many of the menu options just don't work anymore. All's well in Firefox. Strange!
I noticed that with tracker too, I have to load up firefox whenever I need to do anything with tickets.

I noticed the same both with tracker and with moodle.org. There are periods when the response is better but then gets worse again.
And it is indeed sad that the tracker used to work with Safari and does not anymore.

Agreed. I have waited several minutes to log in, and the same to go to a page. Have given up more than once in the last two days. Today seems to be better.

Last night logging in to the forums at moodle.org timed out for me more than once. I agree that today does seem a little better but still kind of slow.

I had one awkward error logging into demo.moodle.org yesterday but other than that, everything has been smooth sailing.
Moodle.org seems to be just extra busy lately, I'll give it a little love ....
The tracker server had some other issues caused by huge backups which should be fixed now (thanks Eloy!)
Tracker (Jira) has not been upgraded for a while so I have no idea about the Safari thing.

The safari issue is unrelated. Its definitely been like that for a while (since I switched back to safari from camino some time ago.. before june).
I've been meaning to file a bug for ages, and just did!

moodle.org really slow again now.
Took a few attempts to login with database connection error messages.
Finally got in.

Could the slowness (which is still evident) be related to the server now being set to compress output? I assume that this would be pretty computationally intensive and perhaps the server cannot handle the load in the current configuration.
In addition, when servers get slow, I notice that users soon refresh the page or try logging in with different browsers, only compounding the problem.
