Why so slow?

Since the great 'outage' earlier in the week, boards is incredibly sluggish. I also notice that the number of users online seems to be unusually high? What the f**k is going on?

The site got DDoS'ed to hell from last Sunday to yesterday. The traffic is now routing through Cloudflares service so that would account for some of the slow down and there are a lot of boardsies trying to catch up on three days of ranting as well!
