  • <chuckles> I have a 56.6k modem that connects at 44k and I find the site fast compared to almost every web site I go to.
  • a little slow sometimes
  • Able to tab out of the game and look things up whenever you need it.
  • About what I expect from a wiki
  • Ads impact page loading, but it's tolerable, no serious problems
  • All dependant on "speed". How fast do they post the news? fast.
  • Almost always fast
  • Although I love this site, there is the problem of it taking up a lot of data (It seems as such, anyway). I find it slowed my older computer far more than necessary while in use.
  • Although this might just be my sometimes sluggish connection.
  • Always exceptionally fast whenever I have internet access.
  • Always fast barely ever crashes overall great.
  • Always find what I'm looking for, quickly.
  • always gives me the page quick.
  • always has what i need right away
  • Always loads quickly for me
  • Amazing
  • and effective!
  • Any time I've been on, it seems to be fast - of course, I'm not CONSTANTLY on the site.
  • Apart from a few times when you servers were non responsive, the UESP is fast as hell. I suspect this is due to the fact that you don't use massive images or ads.
  • as far as Wikis go, uesp is one of the fastest
  • As fast as my computer can handle. :)
  • As fast as my connection 30mb/s
  • As fast as power attack with dual wielding daggers and elemental fury effect :)
  • As soon as Dawnguard came out, you guys were on it!
  • as with anything somedays are better than others, but overall few problems
  • Aside from heavy load times, e.g. announcement or release times, it is very fast, on both desktop and mobile (iOS) platforms
  • At sometimes loading speed may be slow, but most of the time it's fast.
  • Bad computer though.
  • Bad Internet connection, so my fault.
  • Bad internet, hard to actually judge the site.
  • Based on the connection with a telephone while playing. Switching from game to browser with alt+tab is not really an option
  • Better now than before.
  • Can be slow at times
  • can be slow at times
  • Can be slow at times
  • can be slow, but not bad
  • Can be sticky very rarely, but is mostly smooth.
  • Can fluctuate at times, but it doesn't seem to last long!
  • Can sometimes be slow when loading up web pages.
  • Considering the content per page the upload speed is very fast.
  • Could also be a good computer and one of the top internet providers in the nation (Georgia Tech!), but always great speed.
  • Could be a lil' bit better, but its ok
  • Could be a little better but that might be my computer
  • Could be easier on mobile.
  • Could be my internet for all I know
  • Could be on my end
  • Could be random crashes, but sometimes it just don't load when I press enter. Otherwise fine.
  • Could get an extra boost for the mobile devices.
  • Could just be my computer, but sometimes things just won't load.
  • Could use newer flash software, such as chat or autozoom for pictures

  • Definitely faster than the other elder scrolls wiki.
  • depending on what you use
  • Depends on internet but even on slow computers i tend to have good performance.

  • Design is simple enough to get the info fast.
  • Details about certain things like DLC tend to go slow, you have to wait for a long time to get full amount of detail information in anything
  • Don't change anything.
  • Dragonborn isn't even released yet, and still there is something about it in there. You got a time machine or something?
  • During some days it can feel a little clogged, but it's usually streamlined and smooth browsing here.
  • Especially compared to that other slow as hell Elder Scrolls wiki
  • Even during the Skyrim launch it was nice.

  • Except every once in a while it gets ultra slow and basically lags up (the big item pages)

  • I occasionally have issues with loading speed for UESP, but a lot of the problem comes from my end, I believe. There are times where the entire Internet is slow as molasses for me, but even when I'm running quickly, UESP sometimes takes a while to load a given page. It's a rare enough occurrence that I'm not too bothered by it, but it's an issue nonetheless. Unfortunately, I don't know what causes it...
  • I only have had a few problems with the searcher (The place you can find word) of the website.

  • I use my ps3 not Computer
  • I usually use uesp on 3G so it's mainly my speed slowing it down.
  • I would very much like to rate this as "Very fast", which I'm sure it normally is. However, there are often periods of high-traffic which results in slowed speed. You guys have simply made the website way too badass. :)
  • I'm assuming you mean how quickly the pages load.
  • I'm not demanding highspeed fibrechannel. It's more than fast enough for normal browsing/editing.

  • If you mean loading connection then very fast.
  • Improved a lot last year.
  • In a blink of an eye (little to no difference with image-heavy pages.)
  • In relation to actualy server speed, never had an issue, and as for content speed, it's always up to date to the hour. Anytime I have not been able to find something, It was due to fact checking etc.
  • In the past year or so it's speed has increased rather dramatically
  • Info on DLC is almost immediate.
  • Info on the latest discoveries in Tamriel seems to get onto the site as soon as it's found. Sometimes I just wish we(players) would find news sooner and share it with each other ASAP. :)

  • It really depends on the Internet connection
  • It runs fine for me.
  • It runs just as fast as any other website, very good
  • It seems quite fast from the time I've been here.
  • It sometimes takes a little time to load, but for the most part, Google would be jealous.
  • It takes a second or so to load, but then again concidering the data it's not so weird.

  • It's okay.
  • It's only slow when my internet is being stupid ;)

  • Its much faster than most other sites but i have an occasional problem but usually thats my network causing problems.
  • Its not completely instantaneous, but it's fast enough to where I don't notice any thing slow

  • Ive never noticed any problems
  • Just perfect

  • Of the TES websites I've visited, UESP is one of the faster ones. It's slow once in a while but that may be because of my internet
  • Offline sometimes,but ok overall.
  • On occasion there are delays, but those ae caused my issues on my end(downloading, limited speed via my DSL connection, etc.)

  • quality is more important than speed
  • Quick access on any device
  • Quick and accessible

  • Some periods of lag/slow loading
  • some sites do load faster, but i think thats due to those sites having less images and content.

  • sometimes doesn't load
  • sometimes faster than average, sometimes slower - thats an average in average (ba dum tss)
