Well, it certainly takes a while to load (although it's not that bad).

At the bottom of your site, I get a notice: "Created this page in 0.54 seconds". That's the time it took Geeklog to pull everything from the database (stories, etc.). The rest of the time is taken up by actually sending the generated page to my browser and displaying it there.

And that's when all those ads will be displayed. My suspicion is that those take up all the time. Try to disable them to see the difference they make.

bye, Dirk

Another thing to note is that unless you're on a dedicated server (a web server only running your web site) you are at the mercy of other processess owned by the other companies you share the server with. You could always ask your web hosting company to monitor the server and if possible move your site to a less busy server.

Hope that helps.
