We are aware that ManiaHome is slow for some people. We are working on that issue. The problem is not so much the average response time (which is pretty good), but the standard deviation. It means that the extreme values (extreme slowness in your case) are way too extreme. I am confident that this will be fixed, eventually.
Here is a feedback we got:
In order to investigate the issue a bit more, it would help if you anwsered the following questions:tcq wrote:Because at the moment the whole ManiaHome system is just a pain if you only want to play. In comparision to MP1, it takes ~15-30 seconds longer to be able to load a title, than it took with MP2. Even if you are fast and click on the Canyon screen it (before ManiaHome is loaded), the system doesn't load canyon until it has finished to load ManiaHome. And this sometimes takes a very long time (up to 50 seconds).
Haven't seen yet how ManiaPub is integrated into the ManiaHome station, but this is just what I fear at the moment.
* What is your login?

* How much bookmarks do you have?
* How much favorite servers do you have?
* Where are you playing from?
* Is the player page (http://player.maniaplanet.com) slow too?
* If you know how to do it, can you ping maniahome.maniaplanet.com?
Thanks!
