Javascript causes pages to time out

Something was changed on the forums today. For the last 10ish hours I've had to disable javascript to be able to browse the forums. With javascript on the page just loads and loads and then times out after 5 minutes. I've never encountered this behaviour before today.

    I am having this issue also, is it possibly related to the April Fool's meta-game?

    Huh, well so much for that hypothesis. I'll try to report back in the next time it happens with any info I can figure out.

    Chrome times out in D&D all I got from it was that it was waiting for ib.adnxs.com, and that it ran out of memory.

    It's definitely javascript. Turning it off makes everything work, turning it on allows me to get to the main forum section, I can even enter G&T. Entering an individual thread causes the timeout.

    Everything was working fine early this morning (roughly 12 hours ago).
