I have set all the forums to only show topics that were active in the last six months to see if that will speed up the BB. The topics on the Engines forum, for example, go back to 2000 and loading these every time may be part of the problem. Also, at the bottom of the main page of each forum you can set your preferences, for example, you can decide if you only want to see topics that were active in the last day or so. This is only temporary, so give me your feedback if it is helping, and if it is worth not seeing all there is to be seen in some forums.
