plone 2.5 website dissapointingly slow

[john habermann]

Hi Nynke

I can see straight away one thing that will be causing your website to
be very slow  and that is that you have the debug setting portal_css
setting turned on as I can see all your css files are being loaded
separately rather than be merged together.

If you go into the the ZMI for your site click on portal_css make sure
that the Debug/development mode is unticked.

You might also want to have a look at the options you have enabled in
the zope.conf file and make sure you don't have other debugging
options turned on.

cheers
John
