Ads taking an eternity to load

[DizzyTechnology]

The ad code causes my site to slow down exponentially, delaying the showing of content below the ad by up to (tested) five minutes. Is there any fix for this?

It this problem new?

Somewhat. It's occasionally caused a slowdown, but recently it began to take a really long time (long enough to warrant AdBlock). It doesn't appear to have been triggered by a recent event, though.

Yes, the ads are being loaded a lot every second, sometimes during peak hours it may be a tad on the slow side, but is everything good now?
