Load Time Issues

Hi,

Your issue is most probably due to large images on your website.

For example, the following image. It’s more than 5000 pixel.

You don’t need such a large size image, reduce all your inserted images to less than 2000 pixel.

You can use the load images on scroll option, which will speed up website loading.

Thank you

Hey Denzel,

Thanks for the heads up about the photos. I knew I had some big ones, but jeez — 5k pixels is way too many. I’ll be sure to scale those down.

But I still suspected there was something else slowing me down.

Turns out my client’s host was running PHP 5.2 -_-

Upgrading to 5.6 made a huge difference! It’s night and day faster. But honestly I’m impressed that Customizr is even compatible with 5.2. Props to the devs for backwards compatibility.

Hi,

Yes, credits to the developers.

I think it’s much faster if you are running PHP 7

I am running 7.1.0 on my localhost.

Thank you
