GetImageSize using URL suddenly grinds to halt?!

Fixed but no apparent reason

I built a site that went live about a month back - no real problems. Then today the page load time is suddenly up to 50-100 seconds. After spending hours looking at MySQL I figured it was the @GetImageSize calls I was using to check if an image existed.

I fixed it by using the absolute file path rather than the URL of the file.

This is running on a dedicated server, so I'm assuming that no changes were made to the config overnight.

Utterly baffled!

Not sure. Did you try using another computer? Another internet connection? My guess is that if nothing changed with the server than there is something going on locally with your PC or network, but that could be wrong.
