I’ve noticed that ever since changing hosts, the comments on this site take ages to load. It was so bad that even I didn’t read the comments on this site through the posts, Instead I read them through the WordPress admin. I salute all you brave people that left comments on this site, waiting forever for the comments to load. I thought the problem was with my installation of WordPress, or the database, And I never got around to taking a better look. Yesterday I noticed that the first comment on every post loads immediately, then gets stuck trying to load the Gravatar. I guess it takes time for a gravatar to load for the first time, but I just can’t get the cache to work. I’ll give it another try later. In the meantime, no gravatars for me.

Another problem to be solved and destroyed. Good luck.
Aha! Thanks for the reminder – I meant to disable them on my site yesterday but forgot.
So it’s not only me?
I have the same problems as yours. Have you solved it? How’d you do it?
For the time being, I just got rid of the gravaters, I’m to busy to look any deeper into it right now.
