really slow...

My store is VERY slow. Here are the average numbers I get timewise:

Parse Time: 6.170 - Number of Queries: 163 - Query Time: 0.22934210572815

Does this look like a problem on my hosting or zencart or what?

I have already enable gzip compression...

I would really appreciate any insight - thanks so much!

parse times on your store are really huge - most likely you're on a shared server that has a high traffic load. Your query time is reasonable for the number of queries, so the mysql server is fine.

So would I have to switch hosting companies or ask them to move me to a different server or what?
