Hi everyone,

I'm wondering why the ARTS.org.au Sobi2 VC page takes so long to load (over 10 or 12 seconds):

I think it must be the database calls, as my home page is much larger (in terms of CSS, etc.) and only takes 6 seconds max.

Is there any way of speeding this up. I would like to have many more
entries on this page, but it just becomes way too slow. I've tested it
with a much larger number of entries and it times out...

Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Sobi RC 2.9.0.2
Joomla! 1.5.15
Database Version: 4.1.22-standard
Database Collation: utf8_general_ci
PHP Version: 5.2.6
Web Server: Apache/1.3.41 (Unix)

Cheers,

Nic

Yes, I agree with Brian, the Sobi2 forum would be a good place to start.

In my first look at your site, I notice that you have about 200 listings in that category alone, but that shouldn't require as long as it's taking to load.

You might think about upgrading to the latest version of your site software, as the sobi2 version your running is 2 years and 7 releases old. Also, Joomla has had 5 released since 1.5.15 and the server software your running on is not up to date either.

I have a sobi2 site running quite a few more listings than that, with several image loads per listing, 15 listings per page, and the sobi2 page loads quickly. It uses the latest Joomla version and the latest Sobi2 version.

Here's the link to test:

Then I would head over to http://www.sigsiu.net/forum and myself or someone else will be glad to help you.
How about: http://www.sigsiu.net/forum/index.php/topic,25466.msg85873.html#msg... ??

BTW: MySQL 4.1 and Apache 1.3 but PHP 5.2.6 ... I think it would be better to search for an other provider ;)
Thanks Brian, Robert, Radek, and Trinity! :)

I'll be updating the software and testing again... Any recommendations for hosting?

Cheers,

Nic
