I just ran around the map searching and attacking towns and I never got a page generation time longer than 0.01 seconds. A few times it took a little longer for the page to load, but that means it was an Internet thing and not a problem with the server.
I don't want to start attacking people to test this out, but so far I can't get a long page generation nor can I get a "white page of death".

AM trying to fix this game. I've tried several things already, most of which have been rejected by you the players.
I am now working on a whole new rewrite that will give me total control over the interface and eliminate all the problems with various web browsers and junk. It is based off of Adobe Flash, so you'll need Flash Player, but since 96% of internet-connected computers have it anyway, it shouldn't be a problem.
I've had a setback, though, as my hard drive totally died on my laptop. It's currently at a drive recovery center, costing me a ton of money to attempt to get my data back. After that it is going to go to Apple for the warranty-replacement of the drive.
I have a new laptop now, so I should be able to work on it again.
