A while ago, back in November the SpoilerTV site was starting to take an average of almost 30 seconds to load. We'd started to lose sight of our users as we added more widget/gadgets and other bloat onto the site.
It was around this time that I decided that we needed to refocus on what the users, ie YOU, actually needed.
As a results we've gone through a pain-staking task of trying to optimize every part of the site as much as possible.
As a result we've now reduced the average page load from nearly 30 seconds to under 8.5 secs. (People with faster connections will get lower times. The average is based on all users inc people on slow connections and mobile)
We've also optimized the site further for those users using the Google Chrome browser and you should see even quicker load times. So now's the time to start using Chrome if you don't already.
Hopefully you'll notice the improved speed times.
Any questions, as usual, don't hesitate in asking away in the comments.
Please also see the Release Notes Page for all other Recent Changes.
