Hi Mike,

I'm trying to understand why the loading and switch between the pages of the Charity template is so slow.

May I ask you to access it and see if you notice anything obvious ?

The URL is https://www.elementotango.it/test

If you try to access pages for example under the "Collaborators" or "Events" you will probably experience the same slowness as I am finding.

One may be brought to say that it's the host. BUT if you try accessing the main website at https://www.elementotango.it yoi will notice it's very fast. Both reside on the same hosted machine, so I can't figure out why charity is so much slower.

Thank-you very much Mike.

Andrea.

Hello,

I checked those pages but they didn't seem all that slow. Here's a metrix result showing 5.3s, which is a tad slow but not that bad:

A template really has very little to do with site speed. Most performance issues are related to the amount of content on the page (ie: really large pictures or calling from external sources), or server performance. Are you on a shared server or dedicated? If shared, the resources can spike at pretty much any time.

Hi Mike, thank-you for paying a look at it. The web site is on a shared server, where I have also other 2 web sites. What I can't explain is why the other 2 sites seem not impacted by speed fluctuations.

My last question for today: do you know of any free tool (online or offline) that can show me all of the scripts loaded, external calls, etc etc when I load a page ? This way I can understand how many calls I execute, how many scripts are loaded and when, etc.

Again many thanks.

Hello,

Sure, you can see loaded scripts right in your browser dev tools. This is an older post, but you'll find others like it:
