Images not loading well

[TheRealSteve]

Interesting link, cAPSLOCK.  I tried searching for a way to limit the number of simultaneous connections per host, and there was a whole lot of discussion about how it's not possible, or old discussions about how it's possible if you change a windows/IE registry key (I guess Chrome could be re-using those), etc. but they all seemed to say that Chrome was limiting itself to just a handful of connections anyway, and were people asking about how to increase that limit.

Either way, it does appear to be fixed/worked around - though I can understand it being undesirable on bitcointalk.org's end.  Not sure if the new forum software under development can help there, though in theory a page can dynamically insert content in a staggered manner, so that e.g. only 4 images are loaded at a time.

I've never really understood the allure of custom forum development when mature extensible solutions like vbullitin exist and are most certainly capable of handling bitcointalk's throughput...

To be honest SMF is not so bad either really...

Style sheets aren't loading reliably either.

Been bad for the last couple of days,

Now working 95% of the time!

Thanks to whoever fixed it.

Did you try to force refresh?

Try what theymos suggested (try going to the stylesheet directly).

My problem got solved. It was a cache issue in firefox

Maybe it could work for the people having issues with images not loading properly as well?

I haven't had that issue since they tweaked something at the image proxy side, except for when I made the 'Homage to The Block Erupter' post and had to refresh often to fix formatting issues (SMF is so fickle when it comes to table column widths.), thus running into the new limits.  Note that I still don't know why Chrome creates so many simultaneous connections in the first place, but at least for regular forum browsing, all is well on that front.
