@iancalderbank, I have seen and experienced that too. I'll be flagging this with the hosts, and may have to shift as the site is now growing very rapidly with a lot more traffic than we've ever had.

Have you any useful/interesting stats to share with us please @editor ?
How many views per month is the Forum receiving?
Can we tell what proportion of these are from non-members?

@transparent, I'll post some stats later, and there's a lot of non-member traffic.

That's good news about non-member traffic.
I've been inserting links to posts here on the RHH Forum when I write feedback to Government Depts, National Grid, Ofgem, local Councillors, Planning Applications etc.
I want others to be seeing this site as a useful resource, whether or not they personally become members.

To help me drill down a bit further into the cause, how frequently does everyone experience this?
