What I was stating that I always use the forum between 09:00 and 17:00 GMT. The forum is today faster in comparison with the exact same time frame as other days.
I use the forum only between the hours of 09:00 and 17:00 GMT. And comparing the same time frame yesterday with the same time frame last week, it seems that the forum is much faster.
If I was comparing morning/afternoon/night then that would be a different matter. But I'm keeping my sample consistent.
