Slowness is driving me mad.

New re- design on a new upgrade of CMSMS to 1.11.10. Cache cleared, happens on both Firefox & Chrome. Original design using an older CMSMS version is still on server and works fine.

The initial page load speed is OK but after editing etc the reload using F5 or Cntrl-F5 is so slow as to be almost unuseable. System information is:

your php is way too old, php 5.2 is no longer supported since 2011 (http://php.net/eol.php)!!

minimum requirements for your cms: PHP 5.3.2+ Recommended, After the 1.11 series of CMSMS, PHP 5.3.2 and greater will be required. All CG-modules now requires PHP 5.4 or higher.

Your modules aren't up-to-date

so update your php to at least 5.4, update your modules, update your cms

it seems your domain is for sale.

Thanks Staartmees

This was very helpful. I must be getting careless in my old age!

As for the domain there was a typo on the Traceroute. Another error I'm afraid. Oh dear! Not my week.

Thanks again

Martin
