I don't get it. Why are people reporting this now? Why did we never hear
about it before? Are you sure it isn't a browser issue? What do you mean
by request latency? There is no way that a single request should take an
hour. Do you mean it takes days of retries to get the content? That is
more credible. If not, what's the CPU usage?

So you got a DNF. Okay.

Okay, so your requests are DNFing. And given virtually infinite retries,
eventually the content is found. Right. The network just isn't working
very well for you. Now, how long has your node been in existance? And do
you have incoming connections?

No, it's not what you should expect.. these should be findable on
stable. And other sources say that stable is working reasonably well
for them...
