When you're trying to pack nearly 2mb of data through a pipe, in the areas where the pipe isn't as big or maybe has alot more mb in it, you're gonna have hitches. And the more hops, the more chances for hitches.

When you overload the wagon, it gets bogged down in the mud.

Might be interesting to see how the site fares with plugins disabled, and/or some sleeves rolled up, optimization work done.

Here's the WebPageTest on the forum itself. Even worse, 2.8 megabytes. 171 requests.

Native vB 4 is something like 40 requests, 300 KILObytes, just for reference.

If you click on the grades given at the top of the test page, it gives you a complete list of the issues and how to fix them.
