Edit report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=62993&edit=1 ID: 62993 Updated by: danbrown@php.net Reported by: grassl at linandot dot net Summary: at.php.net mirror slow from inside at -Status: Open +Status: Closed Type: Feature/Change Request Package: Website problem Operating System: Any PHP Version: Irrelevant -Assigned To: +Assigned To: danbrown Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: Incidentally, for several years we've had minor, temporary issues with at.php.net, but nothing significant enough for removal. Oddly enough, for me, any time I check from here in the US - including just now - it works just fine. There are no plans to remove the mirror at this time, and yours is the first slow-loading report I've heard at least in recent memory. It sounds to me like it's a routing issue. Nonetheless, as suggested, you can set your preferred mirror and be automatically directed to your mirror of choice each time you access php.net. Meanwhile, I'll see if I can reproduce the slow-loading issue from some Austrian proxies. Thank you for your report, and please feel free to add any additional information you believe may be helpful in resolving the issue permanently.

However, you can set the default mirror to use yourself. Simply go to http://php.net/my.php and scroll down to "Mirror site redirection" and from there you can select at2.php.net as your default mirror. It sets a cookie that helps you stick to your preferred mirror.

It's quite annoying if you have to wait for 10-20 seconds for every page to load in the documentation. As a workaround it helped to change the at.php.net/...-address to at2.php.net/... or de.php.net/... which then loads the pages almost instantly. It's not very convenient if you have to do that about 10 times a day, though. I would therefore like to kindly ask you to remove the at.php.net mirror or to make at2.php.net the default for Austria. The GDS from Vienna UT haven't been the fastest servers ever since and it seems to me as if they weren't suspect to change soon. Thank you very much Philipp Grassl ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=62993&edit=1
