Why is my Web Server So Slow?
Ok, Apache is running great and have no problems however this things is balls slow! I had an IIS server on the same connection and that thing ran circles around this.
I don't know what the problem is however as you can see, my home page just struggles to load. I am on a cable (broadband) connection. http://carlwill.dyndns.org Any thoughts / suggestions? |
I have had a look at your page and here are some comments;
The image is fairly hefty at 253kBytes. Checked the download speed and that was running at an average 23KB. If you are on a 512 connection then this is correct because the upstream rate is half your downstream. So there is 100% utilisation of the bandwidth and it won't get better unless you increase your connection speed. Also have a look at gzip compression and the howto here . It may help other apps and probably not the image as this is already compressed. I run it on my server and I know it reduces the bandwidth utilisation, particularly when accessing database records off mysql. |
Yes, I guess it does not like the large image and it seems by conenction speed is a bottle kneck.
They can give me 6MB down and like 128k up :( |
