I have had the same issues with slow loading pages at RCTech which I am of the understanding belongs to the same company as RCUniverse? I even get a few pop ups on RCTech from time to time.
Things have been good here for me since my last post no matter what time of the day I sign on, so I'm hoping it's at least fixed for me.
No, SyCo's pretty right about that. It may also just be your location, even though you are somewhat close to me. Because RCU is never slow for me and maybe I'm taking a less-traveled path that is more direct than yours is. Even though it is pretty weird, as it seems after a quick IP search for RCU's IP that I got using ping in cmd shows its hosted in El Segundo, CA.
I really do think that it is the ads that slow this site down, as I run an adblocker 24/7 and its always fast for me.
