This is my first week at Gitlab. I've joined along with a few other people (one of whom has a great big bushy beard) to specifically make you happy.

There are interesting challenges that currently make this none trivial but expect things to improve greatly in the near future.

Yes, we should fix the slow page loads on GitLab.com. We're working on it in https://gitlab.com/gitlab-com/operations/issues/42 I'm sorry for the current slowness.

Yeah the site is taking a ridiculous amount of time to load.

Yup! It supposedly is written in a much more efficient language, but it severely slower than GitHub and Bitbucket.

It's written in Ruby like Github, but the latter have considerably more experience running high-traffic systems.

Just perused their job page and will apply this week. Sound like they could use some Varnish and Ceph talent :)

For sure we're interested in people that have experience with Ceph.

Oh, I confused it with Gogs, sorry!
