The Ancestral Atlas web site is slow on my computer – how can I improve the speed?
First, please ensure that you’re using a supported browser – see Browser Requirements for more information. If the web site is still operating slowly then we would recommend that you check the speed of your internet connection – a ‘broadband’ connection is really essential with any Google Maps application such as ours. If your connection speed is ok, the speed of our web site will still be affected by the configuration of your PC. Any PC older than 5 years old will probably struggle with our site but you can probably still improve things if you increase the amount of memory in your PC – we recommend at least 1GB.
