spirits999 Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 Hello All, Our website is experiencing a super slow load time for the first time (almost 12-15 secs) and 5-7 secs repeat load time. The URL is www.rationhut.com Could someone help diagnose the problem? We are about to launch and the only reason we are stranded is the load time. We cannot go live as this is the most important part of any website. There has been almost 6 months of hard work in all of this. Another important thing is that the Back office runs perfectly fine. Super fast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EngkusKusnadi Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 You can compress the big size or reduce quality images in photoshop for fast load time, because i see your cache over 900KB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spirits999 Posted October 29, 2012 Author Share Posted October 29, 2012 Thank you for your prompt reply. Do you think that will work? Could you specify the images that need compression? I can reduce their quality and size both. Also, Do you think it has something to do with cache? When I switch off cache and switch on force compile and then switch it on again. I see a better performance for sometime. Is it related to the same solution that you are talking about? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spirits999 Posted October 29, 2012 Author Share Posted October 29, 2012 Ok now! Here is an update. I optimized all the images that come on the homepage. However there is still no difference. It is still extremely slow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wandrille Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 I don't have this problem on 1.4.6.2. Try by replacing your themes by a default one. If the problem is still here, update prestashop version, if not, the problem come from your theme. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spirits999 Posted November 6, 2012 Author Share Posted November 6, 2012 Folks! Finally have a solution to this. The problem was with the htaccess file. I'm hosted on a Windows server and I never knew that windows server does not recognize the htaccess file. I moved my server from Windows to Linux and now it is Superrrrrrrrrrr Fast and perfect!
