Site is slow

[Manfred]

I was just trying to show Try Ruby to some beginners and it's responding really slow. Can you give it a kick?

I have the same issue. About 5 seconds after I hit enter before I get a result.

+1. For some this is the first introduction to Ruby, and they should not get a slow response in their first hands on experience.

I think it is slow too, but I am on a Windows 7 box, running Chrome. Perhaps Windows 7's slowness is affecting the site?

Also slow for me. This is server-related, not client.

I am having the same experience, 2-5 seconds wait after I press enter. Mac OSX 10.6, Chrome 14.0

thanks for the tool though, I was linked through from Rails for Zombies

This is much faster now that codeschool has taken over the site.

bah, just tried this out.. 15 mins to do the first set of tuts is more like an hour due to the site responding so slowly (on any browser).

Same here, took me more than 30mins and I'm at 50%!
Need to reload the tab every 20seconds or it gets stuck. :(

still slow on the first tutorial in tryruby.org

+1 also still slow. Typing 1/0 froze it for more than 10 seconds.

[christophervigliotti]

slow for me as well...having to refresh the site every 1-2 pages

Still slow 2015 👎

6 years later, this site is still incredibly slow. What a turn off. I dread hitting enter because there's a 50% chance I'm stuck and will have to refresh. (restarting the challenge)
