    Hi,

    I noticed that my wordpress blog loads slow and i was wondering if anyone here noticed the same?

    I don't have a lot of plugins (<10 or so) enabled and a few ads but i dont think that would slow down the blog.

    Any tips or is my host just slow?

    I have the same issue. All my wordpress blogs loads very slow. I have a dedicated server with 4 gigs of ram and is very strange to me that my forum with hundred of users online at the same time loads faster that my sites with wordpress that has only a few users.

    Any idea from someone how to speed up sites with Wordpress engine?

    my modified wordpress install works great, got about 7 plugins installed and im on a vps.

    could be due to a poorly coded plugin or badly optimised server.
