it may also be your host.

I already tryed all this things but nothing changes in the speed of the site. JQery is used from my site thats why I can not disable it. I have used the gallery component a lot. Any other chances to increase the speed of my site? It seams that even when I click it takes about 5 Seconds before the browser starts searching for the site. Can someone help me with this?

Thanks.

I guess its hosting then, if you figured out that loading CSS problem Ill check later

Yep it's your hosting. Here is a support doc about setting up a c5 install on 1&1 hosting:http://www.concrete5.org/documentation/installation/hosts/1and1_com...

But you might want to consider a switch. I havent found really any problems with hostgator.

Hope that helps.

Yeah I use hg too and it works well

I checked the link you provided here, but the installation itself is running. There is no advise in this post, which says you have to do certain things to increase the speed. Does this mean I have to switch the provider? Or should I try to ask the Support from 1&1 to solve the issue. But then I have to tell them whats the issue and I don't know yet what to explain them.

Thanks.

I'd just switch hosts, Its the easiest to do and will probably speed it up

Does anyone know if the concrete5 hosting is more fast and how I can be sure without trying my site before? Is there any way to try out before buying a hosting package at concrete5 that my site is running smooth?

Thanks.

Daniel

Hi Daniel,

just for the record, I have a couple of servers with 1and1 and they run really fast. Do you have a dedicated server or just a standard hosting package? Some of 1and1's packages are terrible and do suffer from speed issues, but their dedicated servers are absolutely fine. If you're based in Germany, then they are actualy a good choice for you as that's where their datacentre is located. It may be that your site can be optimized to speed it up slightly organically, but if you want to try an alternative host, then I'd be happy to talk with you about hosting your site on one of my servers.

I run the site on a shared server. I use the professional package. It was from the very beginning I developed the site that it is very slow. Bit I can not be sure if its realy a provider problem. I use the JQuery A lot and if you want to ahev a look on the speed check outhttp://zst.fox-it-solutions.de

Some pages open normal but if you go to products you will see how long it takes. I was debugging the load times with Firebug and it seems it takes a very long time at the begining before the site is reterived at all. I'm not sure if this will be solved with a new provider without any test.

Ok, a couple of problems with a couple of solutions - neither of them provider related. The big give away is the fact that your home page has an initial wait of less that a second, but your products page has a wait of over 15 seconds!

The first issue is your missing css files. Easy to fix. They are auto inserted files and need to exist, but don't need to contain anything. Have a look inside the search and page list blocks. I think you have an override in place for these? Create an empty file in each of these called view.css. Once you've done that and uploaded them, let me know and we'll go from there.

Also, in the dashboard, under 'Sitewide settings' => 'debug' the is a box called 'Environment'. Could you copy and paste the output of that box here for me please? Thanks,

Jon

Thanks for the advise. I copyed the view.css files for the ssearch and page_list. And her you will have the Environment Values:
