    mines been the same for weeks. when i try to scroll - a news feed or profile - it drags and catches so much it takes so frustratingly long to scroll down 1 page ive stopped bothering with fb much at all cos i cant be arsed with the newsfeed drag. it seemed to start when they introduced those stupid polls.....
    i really havent found any answer to fixing it though

    I agree with you - it has gone really bad since the "question" was introduced... not as bad as OP has stated, but still very slow:mad:

    its even worse now - when im typing eg a status. the text gets held up and catches and thus ends up looking wrong - like this -> delayede puon. drives me mad.... the need to stop adding new features (like the newsfeed toolbar and sort out the lag. strangely, my mam doesnt get the lag like i do. but even she says its much slower too

    That's strange, I didn't notice that at all when I'm on Facebook using my laptop. It only lags (but very minimal and rarely) when I'm using my phone. And I thought it was just a weak 3g or wifi signal.

    Sweet jebus almighty, its gone soooooooo slow, it wont load the rest of my page and i cant see beyond photo 2 of anyones' recently uploaded pics, if i type in a friends name in the search bar it tells me there is an error and that it should be fixed now so please try again and when i do, it wont bloody work, is there anything i can do guys? I dont do farmville etc so what are my options besides deleting the bloody page!!
