I've got a couple WordPress sites that I've been optimizing with themes and plugins. I'm hosted on a fast server with low CPU loads. I have a couple static websites on this server that perform fine: Click an internal link, and the resulting page refresh is fast. But my WordPress sites (two different sites using mostly the same plugins but different themes) have page load time problems. Some times they'll load in a second or two. Other times you may have to wait five or ten seconds to get a page! (I am using the WP-Cache plugin, so this shouldn't be a server issue for page generation.)

1) I was thinking that page size may be an issue, but WordPress does a dynamic page generation. I don't know how to find out what that size is. Can anyone assist?

2) Any other thoughts or experience as to why my pages are loading slow, or help with troubleshooting?

Thanks,

Andy
