Experiment with a new webhost. I was using a virtual private server (VPS) that should have loaded my pages very quickly; however, each page was loading at 6-8 seconds. I got fed up and switched to a shared hosting package with a new webhost. Now my pages load 3-4 seconds. Please understand, the problem was not with having a VPS (I experimented with another VPS and got the same 3-4 seconds), the problem was with my webhost and the way it handled connections. Once my traffic count goes up I'll switch back to a different VPS.

Well I have our site on a dedicated server (Intel Pentium "D" 3.2Ghz, 4 meg ram, yada-yadda), load times are fine, BUT many talk of load times being the problem, and I think the real issue is Page Size - My sites page size is 108k, but loads very fast. and NO that is just the code part of the pligg page, before graphics - so lets not speak of graphics. Obviously we have some issues, but I was wondering how many of you may also be having the same problem??

Any suggestions to cleaning out the page size?
