Dashboard speed fine, loading themed pages takes minutes
Permalink
We're building a Concrete5 site on a client's in-house server.
Server is running windows 8 and we're using an Apache/MySQL installation.
Server is using only an IP address and port 81 (there is already a IIS server on :80)
The dashboard pages are fairly snappy, but loading the index page or any page that is mediated by the CMS and the database takes around a minute.
Any ideas? I'm at my wit's end.

Yes. It will be moving to an identical in-house production server.
I think it's sufficient. But even if it were a little underpowered, I can't imagine it would be creating a minute plus delay in loading a page.
I suspect either something with the database connection or something weird because the url is just an IP.

A few obvious things:
1- check for 404 errors on missing files, including favicon, that slows things down quite a bit
2- check for super heavy images
3- check for process intensive code, especially in blocks having to resize images (galleries)

Great questions. The problem is the "theme" is only a modified default page.
And the same behavior happened using the Concrete5 default theme. We did the simple install without sample content. Even loading the empty home page took forever. And yet the dashboard pages are as responsive as they would normally be.

So what does Concrete5 do differently on the main site than it does on the dashboard pages?
Here's the environment dump before anyone gets around to asking.

Fixed.
It was a typekit call.
Though, I still don't know why the default theme was also slow.
Anyway. Thanks for the help.

When the site is complete, will you be moving it to a production server?
Does the Windows 8 machine have adequate hardware?
