Please check out my store, tpl_product_info_display.php loads slow, why?

[edwardtilbury]

My page seems to be a decent speed, but when it goes to load tpl_product_info_display.php it hangs after it displays the price... Any idea why it would lag like that?


Categories and other parts of the page seem to load fast, it's just the product pages that seem slow... So strange, even the picture loads pretty quick, just the rest of the text seems slow.


oh yeah, maybe the link would help...

(check it out, then click on Products, a car, then a product, and you'll see the lag)

Reduce image sizes..some are 38000k...should be less
than 100k...and you have lots of images..look at sizes..add
up those for one page..result = slow loading

I agree they are big , but the strange thing is that when I load the category page, which has more pictures, it loads much faster, than the tpl_product_info_display.php page... Granted it's like 25 175x50 pictures versus 1 600x400 image, in total the smaller pics would take up more file space.

Which leaves me scratching my head, why would the category page load at a decent speed, but when I load a product page it lags.. even though the category page is heavier..

Product page is pulling info, looking if attributes exist, so taking longer...
also try turning off category counts, both in category
sidexbox and admin category counts..
seems to me you have several places where you could
help pages to load quicker.

Images are greatly reduced in size, yet page load times are still about...

Parse Time: 21.064 - Number of Queries: 304 - Query Time: 0.20056295793152


I also turned off category counts, anything else I should try?

Web page compressed? Yes

I enabled it in Configuration , GZIP

But unfortunately my product pages still load slow, close to the same time. Other pages are quick though :)
