Are my sites slow?

Discussion in 'Site & Server Administration' started by Sleepy_Sentry, Aug 4, 2007.

    I am experiencing slowness issues with my proxy websites. However, I don't know if the problem is a result of my shoddy Internet connection or a problem on my server.

    To help me figure it out, could you visit the two proxy sites below, go to a few popular sites like Google.com, and tell me how fast they load?
    http://www.instantunblock.com
    http://www.unblockutopia.com

    As an incentive, I will hand out some rep to a few people who help me. Please also post what sites you try out on the proxies please. Thanks for the help!

    They both loaded pretty fast for me :)
    Went to myspace.com for both

    No sense going to google, since it's such a fast loading site anyway

    Yep, you're right, youtube not working. They must be detecting proxies...

    they load from my end, but it takes about 5 seconds for the server to respond, i did a trace from my end and it seems the connection times out just before it hits your server so it's in your data centers network somewhere thats causing the problem and not the actual server it's self.

    the proxy's also don't seem to fetch the pages.

    Thanks for the help guys. I gave a few of you rep.

    It turns out my server was having compatibility issues between Cpanel and the version of Fedora I was running. My provider installed a newer version of Fedora and the issue was fixed.

    I am still wondering how fast my sites load when nothing is wrong with my server. If you have a minute, could you test my sites again?

    I really think you are just advertising your sites. Your servers loaded at the same speed both times.

    I don't know if you bothered to read over the rest of the thread, but many people reported problems with my sites. I posted this thread because I wanted to see if I was having a problem with my sites and then later on to see if my server issue was fixed.

    Why I would want to advertise my websites when my server was experiencing DNS issues I don't know.

    On each
    Homepage loads 1-2 sec
    Google 1-2 sec
    Hotmail 2-3sec
    Myspace 6-8 sec
    Digg 12-14 sec

    Using a 1 meg DSL connection here.

    No speed issues as far as I am concerned. Ads annoying tho but I guess that is the point!!

    hope that helps
