    Hi there

    My tiki installation is really really slow. I have done some audit checking on images etc and have some action points but I dont think that there is anything on the home page that is a big issue - is tiki usually this slow?

    thanks!

    Your home page displayed in 5 to 7 seconds in my test — Opera 9 visiting the site for the first time (memory and disk caches turned off), 100Mbps local line on my end here in Tokyo. For comparision, the en.wikipedia.org/dog page loaded in 8 seconds. Some other Tiki page load times:

    zukakakina.com 9
    themes.tw.o 11
    doc.tw.o 7
    tikiwiki.org 10
    keycontent.org 6
    de.tw.o 10
    also
    drupal.org 10
    mediawiki.org 6


    Firefox 2 took somewhat longer in general. IE6 was way slower for all sites, three times longer for yours, twice as long for most.

    Your site seems to be in the ballpark for Tiki sites, which in general can be slower to load than sites where there are fewer db queries due to permissions not needing to be checked and so on. Doggipedia page refreshes (with caches off) were as fast as 4 seconds. Naturally, slower connections will result in longer lags in complete page displays.

    If possible, it'd be interesting to compare how other CMS software performs on your server since, if there is a bottleneck, it could be on that end.

    Thanks Gary

    It seems a lot slower here - at least on some machines. I think firefox is used by most people I know and so that makes a difference.

    Appreciate you looking at it for me, will look at some other sites and see how they go
