Google uncharacteristically slow

[GT2000]

Google has been quite slow over the last 2-3 days I've noticed...hesitation when hitting the front page or the homepage (http://www.google.com/ig), Gmail has been slow, Google ads have been slow to load sometimes causing pages to pause before displaying, everything google has sucked actually.

Anyone else experiencing anything like this?

yes! /ig is my homepage, and lately i haven't even waited for it to load before i go somewhere else.

Seems to be at normal speed now, hopefully it stays that way.

this is pretty unrelated but i thought it was interesting reading anyway:
