There was 10 second delay - could be my spottyDSL though. Once it got loading it was pretty fast.

What do you mean? Caching it where? If it were PHP building the page that was slow it would be slow here for me but it's not. In fact there is a miniscule delay (1 second or so) compared to a straight html page but nothing noticeable.Ambush Commander wrote:I can verify that delay. Try caching your front page.
Tell me about caching, please.
Also since you say the delay is only on the first page load couldn't it be the speed of the DNS lookup slowing things down?
The strange thing is I've had a few people from my country (España) check it and they say it's lightning fast.
Also I have VNC control of a machine in London and that certainly didn't have a ten second delay but VNC has a bit of a delay so it's hard to tell exactly.

I've just realised that I can't cache anything anyway as the pages are dynamic. Even the first page does a check to see what language the viewer requires depending on browser language and a couple of other factors.
I have another site on the same server which is purely html so you could give that a try so we can see if it's the PHP or something else causing the pause.
