I think they were trying to index the entire Forums. Luckily it was from a single IP address so I blocked it.

Seems like the slow connection is back since yesterday. Loading the page takes "forever" in today's terms. Easily a couple of seconds. Just checked 13 seconds for a page refresh in a pm conversation with a single message!
