Re: ... improve my run-time?
Hi guys,
I’ve tried turning the logging off but it has no effect on runtime. My runtime is between 3 – 4 seconds. The site is very slow. Textpattern is installed on a university server what I guess might have some impact on a performance (some security issues maybe?). Although there are other sites which load very fast – those are static HTML sites that don’t use any CMS I guess.
MySQL database is installed on a different server (Dreamhost). I have several databases installed there but don’t have a performance problem with any of them.
URL of the site is http://www.uta.fi/~sanna.harakkamaki/. Does anyone know where should I start to look for a solution?
EDIT: I turned off the plugins I use but it has no effect on runtime.

The distance between the two servers might be a reason for the slowness. Is there a specific reason why you didn’t install textpattern on Dreamhost?
Something against the syptoms might be the asy_jpcache plugin, but it will only affect part of your pageviews (the cache-hits).

Re: ... improve my run-time?
I installed it on a university server because I want the site to have the university URL. There are many lists and databases of students which have already this URL http://www.uta.fi/~sanna.harakkamaki/. (do I make sense with my english?)

Re: ... improve my run-time?
You should be able to reduce runtime delays without disabling logging by setting “Use DNS” to “No” in admin > preferences > advanced.
(edit) – whoops, I missed a bit. Running MySQL and Textpattern on separate networks is the cause here. Every time Textpattern displays a page, it accesses the MySQL server. If they’re on separate machines on the same local network, with a fast LAN connection, the performance hit can be minimal. But, across the open internet, I’d expect delays similar to those you’re experiencing.

Re: ... improve my run-time?
Thank you guys for your answers anyway. Looks like there is nothing I can do about it. Maybe I’ll try to ask a university IT administrator if there is a possibility to install MySQL on their servers.

Re: ... improve my run-time?
I dunno if its the 4.0.2 update, but a page I am working on, which has been pretty darn sluggish in development, has got much faster. Dunno what else the cause might be for the speed up…
