Hi... we put into place some changes about an hour ago to address 
this... pages should have started loading normally since then. Our main 
db server's CPU was cycling between 5% usage (normal) up to 100% 
(completely out of whack). When at 100% cpu usage, page requests from 
the apaches were having to wait... hence the delay. This has been 
happening the last several days and we've been very focused on it. 
Solution in place now.

Prior to that, there was an extended denial of service attack on the 
overall site on Thursday which we took care of.

Thanks,
John Q.
