[gigaom.com] This happened about a few weeks ago but apparently they haven't fixed it

Quote from the article :
Once again an undersea cable has been cut — the South East Asia-Middle East-Western Europe 4 (aka SEA-ME-WE 4) cable and that is causing an internet (and communications) slowdown in and around Africa, the Middle East and parts of Asia. The cut was said to be near Alexandria in Egypt.

Normally in online MMOs, Australia is grouped together with Southeast Asia (SEA) for nation/region-locked servers so I guess this is also relevant to your situation if what the article stated is true

Dear E-Hentai,

I owe you an apology. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)

Goodness, make the game unlaggy already.

now i feel the same thing (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/cry.gif)

suddenly HV become so slow (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/cry.gif)

A bitter slow for few times.
But HV is fast in most situation

Ugh, getting a lot of lag and 503's right now, and usually my connection is very fast. I can't play it when it gets like this, but it happens every so often I guess...

Yeah got 503'd 10 minutes ago here too. A bit sluggish but still playable here.

I've been experiencing lag for over a week now. Sometimes it takes 2-3 secs to load the page but sometimes it takes as long as 7 secs and in rare ocassions, like today, lag made riddlemaster cost me 1 stamina. Is the server under attack?

Chrome users, while in-battle, right-click anywhere on the page and activate "Inspect Element".



Click on the network tab, and with it open, attack a monster or perform any action a few times.
You'll be able to see how long it takes for Chrome to receive each element of the web page.



And at the bottom, how long it takes for Chrome to be "ready" to accept input. (e.g., increased rendering times due to userscripts/extensions)

Example 1: HVSTAT slim (snappy fast)


Example 2: HVSTAT full (nope.jpg)


Posting such information would be more informative than simply saying "HV is laggy for me today".

The more you know.

already open it but it don't have that network symbol (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif)

The toolbar icons are not shown by default in Chrome.



You can also use a [developers.google.com] keyboard shortcut to activate the Developer Tools window.

Anything similar for Firefox?

For Firefox there's nothing by default, but you can get all that if you install [getfirebug.com] Firebug.

now i cannot connect to HV with chrome while other browser can (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif)

My last post here simply showed how long it took for your browser to accept input, relative to how fast you receive data from the server.

Some players claim to be throttled, so I'm re-visiting this thread again. (sigh)



Network tab (same image as in previous post)
--------------
- If you're being rate-limited in some way, the 'Waiting' duration should be significantly longer than what you see from a 'ping hentaiverse.org' response
- Not pictured, but pay attention to how far that blue oval is away from the onload and DOMContentLoaded lines



Timeline tab (new!)
--------------
This gives you a much more detailed breakdown of what's going on after your browser receives the data, but before it's ready to accept input)

How the hell do I use this thing? Good question. Focus your attention to the bottom left.
--------------
first click ⬤ (starts recording)
then click ⃠ (clears screen, do this as often as necessary to keep the timeline clean)
then do something, quickly (so your event is logged)
then click ⬤, quickly (pauses recording)
filter ≥ 1ms (hides the timer events that you don't care about)

What does it all mean?
--------------
- First adjust your view to begin at the end of a Send Request event and end slightly after the onload and DOMContentLoaded lines.
- Note where Install Timer (076c.js) is.
- Anything between that and the onload and DOMContentLoaded lines is a third-party script/extension/stylesheet. And it's slowing shit down. So disable it. (script.js pictured here is HVMMA. Yes, two Ms.)

Other observations
--------------
- Do you have a lot of Send Requests for images that should already be in the cache?
- Is a Parse HTML event before 076c.js taking way too long? Like the image below?



Guess what? You're boned! It's either your shoddy processor, browser, or combination of both.
And not throttling.

P.S. That 120ms event? It should be ~30ms on an i3-3220T.

The more you know.
