Concrete 5.7 websites takes too much longer to load

Permalink
I have created concrete 5.7 website.
URL :http://www.exrx.net/concrete5.7.1/...
and i have tested this site for high traffic load using loadimact.com test.
And the result shows that site will take about 35 seconds to response.
While the other site on same server with 2000 pages takes only 500 milliseconds to load.

check the results here.

Is it happens with all concrete 5.7 websites ?

Strange, it took a few seconds for me to load, and according to

3.5 seconds to load, maybe your host is having some load issues?

Actually it was for just 32 requests , while i tested it for 5000 request within 5 minutes.
As request time increases, response time is also increasing.

Are you using the CSS and JavaScript caching function?
Dashboard> System & Settings> Optimization> Cache & Speed Settings

If the theme properly registers the assets, it will minify and combine your CSS and JavaScript files. This could substantially reduce your HTTP requests.

The number of HTTP requests becomes less important if you avoid render blocking requests. This allows the page to render as soon as possible without having to wait for JavaScript and CSS files.
