Poor performance from SYD

Website is really slow from SYD

pings are not stupid and trace route looks reasonable
so just wondering if non USA IP's are being de-prioritized by the hosting provider for some reason?

Frequently taking 60 seconds or more to load up PM inbox or threads
(Tested against 4 different ISP's and using 3 devices with total 6 different browsers)

I think we had a RAM issue and had a little PTSD from back a couple years back when we were killing the server. It should be ok now? Let me know if you see it again.

Had some random weirdness for an hour around the time I shot you a text, skins changing and stuff on my end, resolved itself finally, been normal since.

Much better now!
