I have a custom coded OSC site.... But, i am noticing that it is slower than other sites.... Is there something i can do to speed it up? What should i check to compare it to other sites...
For instance i notice the WebMasterW is fast even on a slow connection, my site is slow on a slow conncection..... What are the beginning steps i can take a look at to get the speed up?
I know it could be a ton of things but, your ideas would be greatly appreciated.... Also, if you have any clarifying questions feel free to ask.
Thanks,

2. Combine multiple small images into one.
3. Don't use images at all. You see many images here?
4. Minimize the number of HTTP requests needed to download a page. For instance, see (2) above, combine multiple CSS, Javascript, etc. files.
5. Optimize your HTML. Use stylesheets (I know, WebmasterWorld is not a believer) to avoid bulky direct styling in HTML.
Since you asked in the Database forum, I assume you have a database, and think that has something to do with the speed. See above first. Then, make sure you have appropriate keys in your database - don't forget compound keys! And if you are on a shared server - get off the shared server.
