Hi. I am working on a site and on my end it appears to take a pretty long time to load. Alcohost.com Could you please check it out and let me know approximately how long it takes to load the entire homepage? Also, what is your connection speed/ browser? Thank you so much for taking a look. It is still only in the early stages and your input would mean a lot!
It is quick for me, but I have broadband... get yourself "Web CEO" software - it will give you a suggestion on the speed of the page, or Google does it too
61.17 seconds, 167 requests. I am on a T3. The initial get took 6 seconds, but this is not the problem. The problem is the way in which you are loading the google map data through "_promaps_geocache.xml". 100+ requests at ~70ms per request, not including the time between requests, adds up fast!
chrome dev tools, see the bar, it shows time taken to load complete page. 51 sec 256 Mbits/s net connection
Some more details... my testing today shows: ~8 seconds over 24 requests from the start to the first "_promaps_geocache.xml" GET.Starting from the first "_promaps_geocache.xml" GET to the last request is took ~36 seconds over 113 requests.

I am on uk broadband. Page appears after about 7 or 8 seconds but the Google map takes another 7 or 8 seconds to finish loading all the location flags.

I have broadband and ie7. It took about 5-6 seconds to get some info on the page but I could not move the right-hand viewing bar (sorry can't think of the technical term) down the screen for the next 30 or so seconds - ie it seemed to be still loading something. I then gave up.
