Guest Posted October 6, 2006 Posted October 6, 2006 Hi Guys It seems that our store has gotten really slow and I would for you guys to check it out and tell me how slow or fast it loads. We have a 8MB connection at our offices and sometimes the site loads painfully slow. It seems that all of the other graphics load(yes they are optimized), then the actual product images (the thumbnails) seem to take ages to actually load. We have a image thumbnail contrib installed - 'On the fly_GD Thumbs' I wonder is it installed correctly? Any help would be great guys.
Guest Posted October 12, 2006 Posted October 12, 2006 Whats the url to the store? D'oh! Sorry about that is here
jcr777 Posted October 12, 2006 Posted October 12, 2006 It really is slow and we have T1 here (2min to load)

RCWS Posted October 12, 2006 Posted October 12, 2006 8MB Comcast and it is really slow here also. I used the thumbnail/cache contrib and had to remove it because it slowed my site way down. My Webpage this is the way I set up my images (not all images are uploaded.......sorry about the "red Xs" Hope this helps............ Toby Wilson
Guest Posted October 12, 2006 Posted October 12, 2006 Hi Should I remove the thumbnail contrib or do you think its setup wrong?
RCWS Posted October 12, 2006 Posted October 12, 2006 I would remove it....... I doubt you set it up wrong or it wouldnt even work at all. For the install did you have to make a folder for it to put your thumbs in ? If so the contrib only "makes" the thumbs when they are "called" on Once it has made it will load faster.....it was more headache for me than just running a batch with Fireworks to resize all my images (about 3000 of them) Toby Wilson

Guest Posted October 13, 2006 Posted October 13, 2006 Hi Category links are php OSC code, its just the contrib we have installed makes them more search engine friendly etc. I think?
