Cart not working right loading really slow may have to do with USPS shipping quotes

My site is running slow, I just had a customer call, and when they go

When they go to checkout.., this page when you push the button on this page

http://www.mysticcrypt.com/index.php?main_page=shopping_cart

It takes FOREVER to load , like over 2 minutes.

They get to the next screen, Step 1 f 3 delivery information. https://www.mysticcrypt.com/index.php?main_page=checkout_shipping

And then when you click the button continue checkout it takes another 2 minutes here!

Then I get here step 2 of 3 payment information on this page https://www.mysticcrypt.com/index.php?main_page=checkout_payment

i push the button on that page and it load fine, and quick.

I don't know what is going on. I restarted the server , But i find it weird that it is loading slow onlyu on those two continue buttons . Please help. Also I notice that if i do the estimate shipping it takes forever so i am not sure if that is what it is, anyone know of any problems existing? Thank you.

Until the customer is logged in, PayPal has no idea about shipping ...
