Is it just me, or has this forum/site become so slow over the past two or three days as to be almost unusable?

I had a look at an website analysis program and it shows that the main page is about 1MB in size (huge for a webpage with almost no graphics) and 1/4 of that is from a google tag manager website.
I have noticed in the past that websites that have to download data from google when loading sometimes load very slowly.
I suspect that without a re-write of the website and removing all references to google the speed problem won't be fixable.
I've just had another look at the time taken and during the test I carried out the file that took much longer to load than anything else (5 seconds) was:

As this is server side scripting it could be that the computer that the website is running on is a bit slow. - the slowest time for the google tag manager was 0.1 second so a bit slow in computer terms, but it doesn't appear to be the main issue.
