Is it about th plugin google adsense ? I don't know.

I've search on this forum but I've not find a solution.

Someone can help me?
Do you want more information ?

Thanks you

Hi!

Hm, google adsense shouldn't be related to this. I can see that some performance goes into calling the Stylesheets for the print and categorytemplate CSS files.

Can you tell us which serendipity event plugins you installed? It could also be that your mysql/database-server simply is overloaded... - are you on a s hared or dedicated hoster?

I tried to validate your page to look for problems, but encountered the following error while validating:

Sorry, I am unable to validate this document because on line 17 it contained one or more bytes that I cannot interpret as utf-8 (in other words, the bytes found are not valid values in the specified Character Encoding). Please check both the content of the file and the character encoding indication.

The error was: utf8 "\xA9" does not map to Unicode

We generally use the W3C validator to check our webpages for problems.

According to Firebug's Net tab, it takes 3 sec to load your dtree, the slowest thing on the page.

I didn't find page load times all that bad, but I was visiting early in the morning. If the page load time varies a lot depending on time, your database servers are overloaded; your provider needs to upgrade them (or you need to upgrade providers!). There's nothing more frustrating than waiting on an overloaded database server when you can't fix it.

There's also a cache plugin that can reduce database load, at the expense of some dynamic content. I didn't notice anything on your page that would be affected, though.

Finally, I noted that the banner, left sidebar, and tabs all loaded immediately, but the content took a while. I think this is because your template is table-based. It probably has no widths or heights specified, so the browser has to load all the content before it can decide how to display anything.

Specifying dimensions on your table cells might fix the perceived load time. Switching to CSS-based layout would help, too.

But in my opinion, your database servers are probably slow.
