when you first enter the dashboard it's got that stats graph in the corner. That is slow, we often end up turning it off on larger sites.

If it is just the first page...on the first page we're connecting to our servers to pull updates through RSS. On some intranets, where this is disabled, this can lead to that page hanging for a long time.

We've tried to make it so it times out after just a few seconds...but sometimes file_get_contents doesn't seem to want to honor that...

I'm finding the whole thing extreemly slow.
It also hasn't let me add a new page which leads me to think that a problem happend during the installation. So I wiped it and started over and still get the same issue.

I'm really loving how the cms is laid out and the functionality of it.
It's just not working on my server for some reason.
Thoughts?
P.S., I'm just over on I-205. Are you open for drop in's?

well im on wireless right now but your site doesn't feel particularly slower than anything else up here... are you talking about the view experience or the edit experience?

do you have eAccelerator or anything similar installed on this server?

this is an odd one, but are you on comcast cable? I find their cable modems to be utter junk and concrete5 does require a fair number of connections to render the page with the editing bar. It seems that if i reset my cable modem every week or two i get a much faster experience out of editing with concrete5.. (strange as that is)

we're looking at some consolidation and optimization of the javascript we're using before long, but I think you can achieve a perfectly fast site with proper configuration... perhaps post a link to phpInfo here?
