Site Speed.
Hi,
This is an issue I can not seem to resolve on my own, and I would like some help please.
My site is slow very slow.
I have many plugins installed so it could be any of these, It could be my server, or any of many reasons.
I use a site called Pingdom Tools to test my site and compare with other elgg site and my site takes around 17 seconds to load the front page.
If I disable all plugins site loads in around 5 seconds.
I have enabled cache for sql.
I have tried many things including have zero content on front page, the test of removing all content from front page comes with speed of 15 seconds.
I run elgg 1.6.1, but then I have had this problem since installation.
Server Specs are
VPS - A2hosting
Pinacle plan
1GB Ram
1GB Swap
Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5420 @ 2.50GHz
PHP 5.2.6
mysql-5.0.45-7.el5
httpd-2.2.3-22.el5.centos.2
plenty of diskspace but not raid from what I understand.
------------------
Please advise what I can try, I am really desperate, my users love the site but hate the wait.
Site url for testing is http://tibiafriends.com
Thank you in advance.
Kiwi Chris.
I forgot to add I have site cache on, and I use vazco main page, but I have ruled the mainpage widget out as not being the cause. Infact the site runs slow with the default main page loaded.

You must log in to post replies.500 - Internal Server Error ?
you broke yr htaccess !
After switching to hostgator my page load
i think you have same problem ==>

Is this a Linux or Windows server? We've recent run into problems with MySQL under windows because of thread limitations.
Also, Y Slow was reporting about 2.8 second page load for your site. While this isn't super-fast, it's not horribly slow either. Have you changed things since the initial message?
Hi Everyone, it seems it was a server issue, not that i will ever work out what.
I re did the server / this is kloxo / so some works a little different i think.
anyway I rebuilt my vps then swaped between httpd and lighttpd . and then back,
and
mod_php
suphp
effectivly reinstalling it i guess, and this seemed to fix it, so I am thinking some settings or something was wrong to begin with and this corrected it.
so I am now suphp and httpd (was before but refreshed)
so it was the server config not elgg.
it is amazing i am getting speeds of avg 6 seconds now, and best is 4.9sec.
There is 2 redirect in my pingom tools test one is from the highslide plugin/ i think i understand that one, but there is a 2nd one that is always there and I don't understand it and this does not seem to show up when I have test other elgg sites. I am concerned about
http://tools.pingdom.com/fpt/?url=http://tibiafriends.com&treeview=0&column=objectID&order=1&type=0&save=true
can not seem to get the link to display here correctly.
u got those problems b/c u operated as "root" user on yr domain specific sub folders.... setup kloxo domain userIDs and use those..
I still think it was a wacky install of my vps as the rebuild fixed it, I understand what you are saying about root access but I do not think this was the case.
The site has some minor bugs I am working my way through, i have placed a phpinfo on my site, if anyone wants to check I have the right setting in place.

O.k looks like things are going back to the way they were SLOW.
I am thinking I need someone with more experience to have a look for me, I am prepared to pay for this.
I am not rich, and this is a non profit site, payed with my own money.
But for the frustration this is causing me and in the hope that this gets finally resolved I am asking for help.
Name your price and I will see if I can cover this, price to be stated in US dollars please.
Thank you. I hope someone can help me and hopefully soon.
