Speeding Up Web Page Load Time

I'm wondering what the best way is to significantly increase the amount of time it takes for my pages to load, here is my website:
www.andrew-brinded.co.uk
it is visual and audio heavy and I need users to be able to access these files asap.

I hope you meant decrease your load time!
Optimizing your files before uploading to a server is guaranteed to help as well as giving your site a chance to load in Internet Explorer.

Web Server NetworkTopology - Reduce Web Page Loading Times

Hello,
Not sure which forum is best to approach because I think my setup and requirements may fall into several areas of consideration, but here goes. With reference to the diagram below:
Basically I host my own website using IIS on a W7 box that sits behind my Windows Server 2012R2 box that I use as a DNS server with the following roles:
Routing and Remote Access, DNS Server, AD, NAT
What I'm wanting to do is to change my network configuration to the bottom diagram i.e put my webserver in front of the the windows server so that it is internet facing without having to route HTTP requests through my server machine, the objective is to
limit the hardware that HTTP requests need to travel through in order to speed up the web page loading times. I have tried the new preferred configuration but I am actually finding that the web page takes another 10 seconds longer to load with the new configuration.
My DNS server is authoritative for my website domain name, my idea or understanding for the new configuration is the following: (this may be wrong, not sure!)
Someone browses my site i.e makes an initial DNS request for my website, the DNS inquiry is passed through my hardware firewall to my DNS server, the DNS server then points the DNS request to the webserver box, then when an HTTP request for website is received
by my hardware firewall, the firewall redirects the HTTP request directly to the webserver.
I thought that the above new configuration would actually speed up the web page loading response time as the HTTP traffic would no longer have to travel through my DNS server before reaching the webserver and then make its way back to the remote host across
the WAN
Can someone please tell me where I am going wrong with my configuration? thanks in advance

Hi,
Is your website loaded very slow?
If yes, please try to perform a network capture on the client. We can find which part is slow by analysing the capture data.
If the DNS process is slow, please try to use nslookup to verify if it is a DNS issue.
If the HTTP process is slow, please check if there is any tcp retransmission in the capture data.
Best Regards.

Does this happen with both Safari & Firefox?
What does DSL Reports...
http://www.dslreports.com/stest
report for both?
Have you cleared Caches in Safari?
What ISP is it?
Might try putting these in Network>TCP/IP>DNS Servers:

Very long web page load time out

Hello,
In Firefox Android when several resources in a page do not load, Firefox android shows a white page and waits for a very long time to time out those resources and display the rest of the page, while Firefox in PC quickly ignores the time outs within a page and displays the page.
How can I make the android version time out quickly and display whatever is available in a page?
Thanks

Hi FAnDwyHSHoo2K,
There actually is not a feature to do this in the ui. However you may be able to find the about:config entry that controls the timeout default time. [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Firefox_:_FAQs_:_About:config_Entries]

Firefox has been randomly crashing for two days. I always have google and facebook running. Firefox seems to crash at random times - no specific web page loading. My Firefox is up to date.

Firefox has been randomly crashing for two days. I always have google and facebook running. Firefox seems to crash at random times - no specific web page loading. My Firefox is up to date.

There can be multiple reasons for crashing. Seeing this article would be helpful as it lists out the solution for this-

After upgrading to 8.0 the add-on compatability tool runs and the Getting Started web page loads every time the browser starts.

After upgrading to 8.0 from 7.0.1 every time I start FF I get the add-on compatibility tool to run and the Getting Started web page loads along with my homepage in separate tabs as well. So far I have tried running the installer again, disabling all add-0ns and custom settings and restarting and turning off automatic updates. Nothing worked there. I got the same behavior each time. I don't know what else to try other than a full uninstall and reinstall. Something I'd like to avoid if it's possible because of the time involved. This is the second time I have posted regarding this issue. The first time I didn't get a response. A solution or a possible workaround would be greatly appreciated if anyone knows of any. As a staff member and a global forum moderator for an anti-virus company I understand how hectic things can be at times but some feedback, good or bad, on this issue would be very welcomed! Regards, Ritchie...

Hi michaell, thanks for the reply. I tried everything in the Preferences are not saved link you provided and nothing worked there. If creating a new profile will delete all my add-ons and custom settings I might as well just do a complete uninstall and reinstall. That actually would be easier. That article told me how to save my bookmarks though so I don't have to loose those which is nice. I don't know if this makes any difference but there is a discrepancy between the preference file in the article which is: prefs.js and what's showing on my PC which is: prefs with no .js suffix. I tried to rename the file to prefs.js and restarted. No luck there either. It just created another prefs file. I guess we've pretty much exhausted all the avenues to try! I'm just going to go ahead and do a reinstall when I get the time. Thanks so much for your help michaell. I do appreciate the effort. Regards, Ritchie...

Can this html code be changed to speed up the image load time?

I found some html that creates a auto running slide show. I've got three images (small image sizes) but it is slow to start up when the page is first opened. http://web.me.com/phelpssculpture/Site/test.html this is the escaped code:
<center><img id='imageholder' src='' ></img></center>
<script type='text/javascript'>
images = new Array();
images.push('http://web.me.com/phelpssculpture/Docs/typewriterprpage.jpg');
images.push('http://web.me.com/phelpssculpture/Docs/royalprpage.jpg');
images.push('http://web.me.com/phelpssculpture/Docs/Lovetest.jpg');
var image_index = 0;
function rotateImage() {
if (image_index == images.length - 1) { image_index = 0 } else { image_index++ }
document.getElementById('imageholder').src = images[image_index];
setInterval('rotateImage()', 5000);
</script>
I have a page: http://web.me.com/phelpssculpture/Site/Resume.html
that has a rollover image (from OldToad) that has two images about the same file size and located in the same folder on my iDisk as the other slide show images but it seems to load instantly.
this is the escaped code:
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">

</script>
<a href="http://web.mac.com/phelpssculpture/Site/royal.html" onmouseover="image1.src=loadImage1.src;" onmouseout="image1.src=staticImage1.src;">
<img name="image1" src="http://web.me.com/phelpssculpture/Docs/royalprpage.jpg" border=0></a>
Does anyone know if it's possible to improve the html of the slideshow snippet to speed up the initial load time?
Thanks, David

Ethmoid:
There are seven different pages: http://web.me.com/phelpssculpture/Site/movieroyal_davidphelps.html
Each link is directed to a different page.
I created the basic layout on one page and then duplicated the page six times.
the links are in one text box ( that's why they're lined up well ) and each individual word is activated as a link. I changed the background color of the forward tab to match the color of the main shape and used the send forward or send backward command to get the tabs to look right on each page.
The only problem with the words being in a single text box is that explorer doesn't render the spacing correctly and they fall off their respective tabs. When I get time I will put each word in it's own text box ( it's not that hard to align them ) so it will render properly in explorer.
Sincerely, David Phelps

Slow web page loads on Mac, but not for PC

I use a D-Link wireless router (DI-524) for my PowerBook G4 15" and my roommate's Dell PC. Very recently I seem to get very slow web page loads with some pages not even loading at all.
Airport is consistently connected with no drops at all and when I'm downloading something it never gets interrupted the whole way through.
My roommate's PC has no problem whatsoever and all of the web pages that he visits load instantly. It seems that my main problem is with web pages.
I've tried doing a clean install on my Powerbook, I've tried resetting the router (I've tried upgrading the firmware but the router decided it didn't want to work with the new version). And surprisingly, I get the same slow speeds when I hook up my Powerbook to my router via ethernet cable. The only time my speeds are perfectly fine is when I hook up my Powerbook directly to the wall (I dorm in a university so we have a T3 line).
Can someone please give me some advice on this very frustrating issue?

In addition to Neds suggestions, empty the Safari cache (which should be empty after a clean install).
Goto the Safari Get Info screen (in Finder or in Dock if you have Safari there), click the triangle on languages, and disable those you don't use.
My Safari response time was significantly slowed after the 10.4.5 update, and using the combo updater took care of that. The 10.4.6 combo update is located here.

My Internet Connection is Fast, but Web Pages load slowl

I have tested my connection on several websites. I am using RoadRunner and I consistently get speeds between 3500-4500 kbps. In the past few days I have the same internet speed but all my web pages load really slow. Up until this problem I would click on a link and it would take 2-3 seconds to load the next page. Now it is more like 15-20 seconds. Once I get a page loaded if I download something from that site it is still a fast download.
Any ideas on what could have slowed loading web pages , but download speed still shows really fast?
Your help is appreciated
Cheers
mrjazz

If your download speeds are still fast, it is most likely the broswer that is slow in rendering the pages.
Are you using Safari and if so, do you leave it open all the time? Safari is notorious for hogging RAM and CPU cycles and slowing to a crawl if you do not quit and restart it.

Web pages load SLOW on IPad: how to disable DNS prefetching; other ideas?

Brand new IPad 16 GB WiFi + brand new Airport Extreme in bridge mode. Comparing IPad web page load speeds with side-by-side WinXP computer running IE8. Any web site will do: take www.apple.com if you want.
Problem: IPad web pages generally load much too slowly compared to IE8 on a computer 6 inches away on the same Airport Extreme network. Maybe twice as slow at worst, occasionally not much slower, but generally pathetic and annoying. WiFi signal strength is "excellent". Airport Extreme network is working great with all my (Windows) computers and devices except the IPad.
I already switched to OpenDNS on my Airport Extreme; didn't help noticeably. I would like to try disabling DNS prefetching in Safari, but don't know how to do it on the IPad. Question #1: How do I disable DNS prefetching? Question #2: Any other suggestions for this embarrassing (to Apple) problem?

I'm experiencing a similar problem with a new iPad 2 using iOS 4.3.3 connected to the Internet via Time Machine to a DSL line. The Speedtest X HD App shows the connection speed to be fine (about .6 Mb / s). The problem is only with accessing web pages. I frequently get a "server not responding" msg. There is no problem when I connect the device via USB to an iMac, only through wifi. The iMac itself (Intel with OSX 10.6.7) periodically experiences problems (both Firefox and Safari): I have learned to solve it by cleaning out cache and fixing disk permissions periodically. I've tried cleaning out cache on the iPad, deleting cookies and erasing web history, but that doesn't seem to make any difference. The problem reminds me of an old VNC problem: you had to allocate a large amount of cache or streaming would stall. This is also happening with the iPad 2. Maybe the problem is a DNS channel issue but my impression is that it is somehow related to a memory or cache issue with the iOS device or to Airport. I've occassionally experienced similar slow page loading problems with other Airport connected devices--it varies from device to device. It seems to be a client-side software or caching problem.

Page load time differences between IE and Firefox

Hello all,
I have a problem with page loading time in IE 8. My page contains tabular form, classic report and some other items. I use some javascript code(placed in HTLM Header section) and also dynamic actions. When I try to display the page in IE I have to wait for 40 seconds (100 rows in tabular form). I realized that the performance is dependent on the number of displayed rows in the tabular form. But decrease the number of visible rows, using pagination, is not an option, because all needed rows should be visible for the users. During the tests I have tried to remove all the JS code and disable all the dynamic action, but the loading time was more or less the same.
When I try to run the same page in FireFox then it is displayed in 4 seconds!
I have already try to search some tips or advices how to speed up the page loading, but only what I have found out is, that every web browser is different. The javascript is handled differently, page rendering is done differently and so on.
Maybe there is something what I have missed, and you experts can help me. Is there anything general what I should check or change to speed up the loading time in IE?
Thanks in advance!
Jiri
APEX v. 4.2.1.00.08
IE 8.0.7600.16358
FF 19.0.2

Thanks Denes for your reply.
I use HttpWatch tool to measure the loading times. Reports are mostly the same for IE and FF. I can see from the report, there is three times shown error 404 Not Found for the items below.
http://......./images/sRegion-Body.png
http://......./images/sRegion-Bottom.png
http://......./images/sReportBG-Standard.png
The last action which caused 404 error started 2 seconds after the page was asked to refresh. The next action http://......../i/libraries/jquery-ui/1.8.22/ui/i18n/oracle/jquery.ui.datepicker-cs.js started after 38 seconds (hanging in the same place for 36 seconds). Does it mean that the problem is caused by http://......./images/sReportBG-Standard.png action which returns 404 error?
How can I add the missing images?

WRT54GS - Web page loads slow or not at all

My parents have two wireless laptops accessing their WRT54GS. Both receive excellent signal strength. Web pages load at normal speed for the first unit to access the internet on their network. However, the web pages will take forever or not load at all for the second computer, despite the fact that the signal strength to the second computer remains excellent. It does not matter which connects first and which is second; the problem still occurs.
I might mention that the computers and the router were purchased on Dec. 23, so everything should be current, with the exception of the 12/28/06 firmware release for the router.
Any suggestions would be appreciated!

hi...you can try different wireless settings on the router...
channel -- 1,9 or 11
under advanced wireless settings ,
beacon interval - 75
frag threshold - 2304
RTS - 2304
if this does not make any difference then upgrading the firmware could help you....

Archives, Page Load Time, Commenting and Trackback

I've been looking through the iWeb forums somewhat, as well as designing a little bit of a website in iWeb (link), and I've found some things to be excited about, and some things that are still unknown. (Here's my original .Mac site, which I will continue to maintain for now).
I really need commenting to work before I can switch to using iWeb as my blogging tool (right now I use Thingamablog, which works pretty well, but is 'unpolished'). I haven't taken too much time to experiment with hand-coding the template files (plus, I haven't found where they might be...), but it looks like the HTML output of iWeb is something I wouldn't want to deal with anyway.
Another feature of the blogging in iWeb that could use a complete overhaul is the archive. I don't think it's at all sensible to put every single entry (if only a title) on one web page; after a month (or a year, in my case), that page would be so long no one would ever think about scrolling through it to see an entry.
And, after reading a few other user's opinions of iWeb, I've found that, yes, it is stupid to have to hand-format every single blog entry (moving text, moving images around, etc.). Very un-intuitive for anyone who blogs more than once a week.
Finally, as other users have posted, the load time for pages is terrible. I thought that iWeb would do a great job at making things look nice using JPEGs and fairly small file sizes, however, I've found that, even if I pre-format a graphic for the right size in Photoshop, the file is converted to a PNG in iWeb, with a ridiculously large file size.
There are a few other problems with iWeb, such as it's inability to allow target="_blank" links for opening new windows, and some other fairly common features of even the simplest blog and website creation tools, and I only hope that these things will be fixed and improved dramatically, or I may never find a use for iWeb.
Now, you may say I am not the user iWeb was intended for... and you are partly right. However, I am looking for a simple tool for a quick picture page or a blog, with little or no hassle, that looks great and doesn't make a huge (in terms of file size) web page. I will have to stick to using Adobe GoLive and Thingamablog for the time being, even for small projects, until some of the above features are added.
P.S. I have also sent this post as feedback to Apple. I suggest you do the same.
[Edit: I've found this thread discussing where templates and such are, but that is no help, since the templates themselves are not very easy to understand...]

Hi Anoop21,
>>Could you please explain the difference between Page Load Time and Page Response Time ?
Based on your issue, I know that the Page Load time is used to count load a page main requests and all dependent requests (images, css, js...) time.
The Page Response Time is count the page main requests time without including the dependent requests time.
So the different is that if the page has the dependent requests.
Hope it help you!

WRT350n Firmware Update 1.03.7 - Web page load really slow after update

Well I updated my WRT350N with the new firmware, but now web pages load very slowly, and streaming video is even slower. Before the update it was blazing fast. I run a mixed network of wireless N and G. Both Wireless N connections connect at 200 or higher Mbps now, which is a great improvement.
Anybody got any ideas why web pages and steaming video run so slow now.
Also downloading files never goes above 30 kb/sec now.
I use comcast cable and downloads were so fast before.
Thanks in advance.

check the download speed and the streaming video when the computer is directly connected to the modem

PHANTOM web page loads on startup. Upon startup, an unwanted web page loads up.

PHANTOM web page loads on startup. Upon startup, an unwanted web page loads up. My preferred web page "A" is still shown on the settings under -Tool-Options-General, home page address is correct and home button works correctly.
Some file somewhere is forcing this page upon startup. I would like some ideas where to look.
I have run various utilities such as AVG, Tweaknow, and spybot s&d newest version.
Its just annoying to have to look at Yahoo Brazil upon startup
