Has anyone else noticed that the Adobe download site being very slow?
I've tried it several times in the last week from two different
locations (in the UK)
and it never really gets above 5k/sec (on my 500k/sec line). This is a
particular
problem with clients using IE who are trying to install the Flash
Player. All they see
is a empty box with no indication that the download is happening at all.
Firefox is
no faster but at least you see the download progress so you know
something is happening.
I don't have full information here, but I do know that folks on the web
team want to document what's going on when this symptom occurs. There
have been improvements made to fix some of the causes of slow site
response, but there are additional scenarios where we still need to
remove impediments to normal speed.
I don't have full background info here myself, but I do know that
there's ongoing work in this area, and that people involved do want to
get public status info up soon. I hope this (weak) context helps in your
own daily contacts a bit...?
