Ask HN: Does GitHub seem slow to anyone else lately?

[cjstewart88]

The entire site seems slower to me and my coworkers lately. Everything just takes longer, opening the tag filter, the user dropdown, diving into folders. I noticed the little 2px loading bar at the top is a new addition... wonder what else has changed.

Yea, that is for today. The degradation in performance started over a week ago.
