robbalvey Posted February 26, 2011 Share Posted February 26, 2011 (edited) Hey FIREFOX USERS! As you know we are doing some testing with the new version of the park index. There is one issue that I need to get some feedback for our developer on. It's specifically with Firefox browsers. Please click on this link: http://www.themeparkreview.com/parks/ I need to know how long it takes for the entire page to load, like all the way to down the letter Z, and does it seem to load slower than you would expect, or about right? Also, if it is loading slow for you in Firefox, can you test it in another browser and tell me if it loads faster? That's it! Thank you! --Robb --------------- EDIT This is all helpful, but I need to know how long it takes for the entire page to load, like all the way to down the letter Z, and does it seem to load slower than you would expect, or about right? I think some of you might have just clicked the link, and seen it appear on the screen, and thought it loaded quickly, but did you scroll down to the bottom to see how long it took to load up to the letter Z parks? If you didn't do this, could you please go edit your post to reflect how long it took for the ENTIRE page? Thank you! --Robb --------------- EDIT PLEASE! FIREFOX USERS ONLY!!!! If it is loading slow for you in Firefox, please try another browser and tell me if it loads quicker. I ***ONLY*** need other browser information as a comparison if you're using Firefox and it loads slow for you.

Popcorn54 Posted February 26, 2011 Share Posted February 26, 2011 I am Using Chrome and it's loading very slowly then I get the page is not available. I refreshed it and it took a while to load however it worked in the end. It's not my internet as I tried opening another page from tpr to check and that worked fine.

Iowa Beaver Posted February 26, 2011 Share Posted February 26, 2011 My primary browser is Firefox, so that's the one I tested first. The page seemed to be loading line by line. It took about 40 seconds for the status bar to finally read "Done". I load the page in Chrome in about 18 seconds, all as one page and just needs to load the ratings images. I got about the same 18 seconds result with Internet Explorer 8. My internet is generally pretty slow, but there shouldn't be that big of a gap depending on which browser I use.

Gav Posted February 26, 2011 Share Posted February 26, 2011 It took about 9 seconds to load fully for me, with no rendering errors at all. Im running FF 3.6.13 on Windows 7. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Groteslurf Posted February 26, 2011 Share Posted February 26, 2011 The page loads very fast in Safari, IE AND Firefox on my computer. And with very fast, I mean really immediately. It doesn't even take a second to load the full page. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlmereStars Posted February 26, 2011 Share Posted February 26, 2011 Took around 20 seconds to load in Firefox, with an 20 mb/s connection. When loaded a second time, everything pops up pretty fast. Except for the Disney Add at the right side of the screen. That one takes, again, around 20 seconds to load for me Other browsers: Chrome: 5 seconds, add 8 seconds Opera: 7 seconds with add (no difference between add and the rest) IE 9 (beta): 6 seconds with add Safari: 5 Seconds, add 9 seconds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robinschroder Posted February 26, 2011 Share Posted February 26, 2011 Very bad news here for Firefox - 2 minutes 50 seconds to load right down to the Zs, updating line-by-line. However, on Internet Explorer on the same machine, the page loads all in one go in 23 seconds. On my iPod touch (using the same internet connection), the page loads all in one go in 25 seconds. I promise I'm on broadband, not on a dial-up modem! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nosferatu Posted February 26, 2011 Share Posted February 26, 2011 Firefox 14s Chrome 6s (both time were until I got done in the browser) Quite a bit faster in Chrome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
osm Posted February 26, 2011 Share Posted February 26, 2011 I didn't count the seconds, but the loading time was about the same as any other page on this site using Chrome Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beatle11 Posted February 26, 2011 Share Posted February 26, 2011 It took about 6 seconds for me on a 15mbps connection. Maybe it could be faster, but it's not horribly slow either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ajc47 Posted February 26, 2011 Share Posted February 26, 2011 Loaded in about 10-15 seconds for me on FF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gci2011 Posted February 26, 2011 Share Posted February 26, 2011 Loaded very fast for me in Safari and Chrome on a Mac. Looks nice, by the way! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Airtime&Gravity Posted February 26, 2011 Share Posted February 26, 2011 It is loading fairly fast for me, although it seems a little inconsistent with it taking from around 2.5 to 4 seconds. It goes faster if I click the link, but slower if I hit refresh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jayjay719 Posted February 26, 2011 Share Posted February 26, 2011 The page loaded in 3 seconds and I'm using Internet Explorer 8. It looks great btw... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maximo37 Posted February 26, 2011 Share Posted February 26, 2011 Also using Internet Explorer 8... with a so-so connection... and it loaded in about 4-5 seconds... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigDipper 80 Posted February 26, 2011 Share Posted February 26, 2011 It's loading the same speed as the rest of the pages on the site for me. I'm running the most recent version of Firefox with Windows 7 on an Acer Aspire, and I've got a fairly good connection with Cox High-speed.

STR8FXXXINEDGE Posted February 26, 2011 Share Posted February 26, 2011 I'm using Firefox and the page loaded almost instantly for me. I was trying to scroll down the page as fast as I could to see if I could beat it, but it was too fast to load. Looks and works great on my end!

coasterbill Posted February 26, 2011 Share Posted February 26, 2011 I'm on Firefox and it's also almost instant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ParkTrips Posted February 26, 2011 Share Posted February 26, 2011 7s for me on Firefox - it actually took longer to load in IE for me, about 10s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sspaz1000 Posted February 26, 2011 Share Posted February 26, 2011 With firefox, it loaded slightly slower than the rest of TPR pages. But maybe 3-5 seconds slower. I'm on my mom's computer which is windows 7, with firefox 3.6.13 as my browser. I loaded it in IE 8.0 and there was maybe a second difference between the two, but if you weren't looking out for load speeds, one would say they loaded at the same time. The only difference I notice is that the text on the ad in IE is centered correctly, while in Firefox the text is down just a little bit off the white box. Loading park pages, clicking both the same park in IE and Firefox, they loaded at the same time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoasterWeasel Posted February 26, 2011 Share Posted February 26, 2011 (edited) Using the most recent firefox and it loaded instantly(no sooner I tabbed over the page was done loading. Btw the new park index is amazing and looks great. Using Firefox was actually quicker for me than IE8 and Opera. Using IE8 it took forever and the page was offset.

Carnage Posted February 26, 2011 Share Posted February 26, 2011 In Firefox I thought it loaded instantly, but then realized it was rendering line by line off screen. (as some others have noted). Probably 10-20 seconds for the full page to load. With IE the page loaded instantly without line by line rendering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KDcoasterMAN Posted February 26, 2011 Share Posted February 26, 2011 Load fine for me, a Google Chrome user, though on the individual pages it was slightly slow... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big-M Posted February 26, 2011 Share Posted February 26, 2011 (edited) It loaded in about 7 seconds for me in Firefox. It seems to be a little slower than most TPR pages, but not by a lot. Took about 9 seconds in Internet Explorer. Edited February 26, 2011 by Big-M Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
