Running version 4.2.2
This is an issue I've always experienced and chalked it up to too many videos. Suppose I have a thread in where members can post videos of "what are you listening to now", and then you have perhaps 15 youtube music videos per page. This seems to make the pages load very slowly.
Is this normal? Is there any way to increase performance in loading these videos on the site? Lastly, would it go slower and slower as the thread goes on?
The reason I ask is that a few members are stating they have similar threads at quite a few sites, and that the slowness/crawling only happens on my site. What I mean by slowness is that when you first click on the page, it'll crawl for anywhere from 5-15 seconds as it buffers the videos, then you can scroll the page without issue until you play one. But until it does that, you're at the mercy of waiting!
Thanks!
