If you go to [this website](https://whois.numericcitizen.me/news/), where the page displays a list of blog posts… personally, when I try, it takes at least 20 secs to load and display… this is built using Elements CMS and hosted on Chillidog… This is way too long… how can we improve this? ---

Maybe it’s because I tested it just before writing this post. I’ll keep an eye on this and see if people can check. ---

I just tried a few minutes ago and it I was about 15 seconds before it loaded, when your page opened I copied the address and then opened another webpage and pasted your address into the address bar and it loaded instantly. Came back to forum, tried the link took about 20secs to load, repeated the paste in another page loaded instantly, back to this forum and it loaded instantly. Update From this forum and the link odd slow loads to instant, pasting the address into another pages address bar it loads so fast ---

This is mostly due to the way the forum is hosted (nothing that can be influenced by RW I think). The forum might use some processes when opening a referred link, whereas when you add the link directly to the browser it loads directly (unless you are opening links via a VPN or a service which checks the content of a uRL before loading). ---

I can see there is sometimes a long-ish loading time (around 3-5 seconds here), but once the page has been visited, subsequent visits (even non-cached visits) to the page are much fast, which makes me wonder if the server needs a kick to wake it up, and once the content has been accessed it becomes a lot quicker to respond. Either way, we will be implementing caching (we have a caching system almost ready to go), however, **the current CMS beta does not use any form of caching.** ---

Thanks for the update. I must say that load times can be as high as 20 sec for me… and yeah, seems some back end issue… might ping someone at Chillidog hosting? [Next page](https://forums.realmacsoftware.com/t/speed-of-cms-content-on-chillidog/49804.md?page=2)
