Hi, What are the factors in the codes that can result into slow loading
of the page.

And what are the solution to optimize the codes to make it load faster?

Are the codes below can cause slow loading to the server?

<?php
session_start();

$rowsPerPage = isset($_GET['row'])? $_GET['row'] : 25;
$rowsPerPage = (int)($rowsPerPage);
//pag nag submit ang user
//lalagay niya sa session tapos assign niya s $total_row2
if(isset($_GET['row'])) {
$_SESSION['total_row'] = (int)($_GET['row']);
}
//kapag yong total_row ay hinde blanko
//assign niya ang value din don sa $rowsPerPage. Ibig sabihin na pindot na o may laman na.
if(isset($_SESSION['total_row'])) {
$rowsPerPage=$_SESSION['total_row'];
$xpose_Rec = $_SESSION['total_row'];
}
