I notice that many websites have loads of graphics and photographs but still
load in a flash. My site with just a few graphics (compressed at that) still
takes 18 seconds at 56.6. What do they do that i do not?
 
What do they do that i do not?

To answer that, we would have to know

(1) What web sites you're comparing your web site to.
(2) What your web site it.

There are any number of reasons why a page might load slowly of quickly.
Among them are:

1. Total bytes of content. Includes graphics, Flash, ActiveX Controls, text,
etc.
2. Caching. If the resources of a web site are cached, they may not need to
be re-fetched.
3. Scripting. Excessive scripting can slow down the performance of a page.
4. Location. If a page is on your machine, it will load very quickly.
5. Network-related issues. Traffic, proxies, web server, etc.

If you can post a link to the page that performs poorly, we can probably
provide suggestions.

Hi Chris,

Thanks, but the stats did not show on your posting, can you post them again
please?
 
It must be me, but... cannot see the paperclip and I have looked everywhere,
even on the floor. Nor can i access that page - I get a 404 error.
