Re: Slow Load Times on Server

Umm... then it might be just a latency issue. You could try putting up a large file on the web server and see if that gives you 80KB/s. Right now the pictures you have are really too small to be able to decide whether its a bandwidth issue or a latency issue.

I faced the same problem with RR cable modem. On a longer average it used to give me 40 KB/s, but the initial latency used to be pretty high making page loading appear very slow.

In regards to the networks promise, I have an FTP server set up privately for me alone, and when I’m downloading files I can get 80K a second, so I know I’m getting the promised 768.

your server is giving around 10 KB/s if i use a single socket and around 20 KB/s if i use two sockets. more likely youre not getting the 768 that was promised. the 768 depends on how close you are to verizon's dslam. more a network hardware issue than an issue with your computer.

Hello,

 

I have been using Apache for about 2.5 years now and have recently installed the latest downloadable version. I am also running PHP 5 and MySQL Server 5. Everything works fine, but I have ALWAYS had exceptionally slow speeds on the server.

 

I run Verizon DSL 3300/768, and have an upload speed of about 80K per second. When I load pages on my server from any remote site, the images load slowly. See an example of my server here:

 

http://71.117.144.132/

 

The computer my server is on is exceptional. Core 2 Duo 2.4, 2GIG ram, 250GIG SATA drive, etc. Does anyone have some fine-tuning suggestions to speed things up?

 

Thanks!
