I've been having quite a hard time accessing SR lately, requests time out all the time.
Is the website being attacked in some capacity? I'm not having any difficulty accessing any other .onion websites or websites through Tor.

It has always been like this for me. Clicking "New Identity" on the onion icon at the top of the browser usually fixes it.
Is it not maybe because of the extra security on the site? Maybe it bounces round a few places first?

whenever it's slow, i just stop tor then restart it again

Can an onion site be DDoS'ed?
