First load of your page took a very long time for me. I think you'll have a very high bounce rate until you get your static page load times under control.

- jbverschoor 11y agoInteresting.. It's very fast here. it's hosted in the EU.. So that might mak a difference (though I'd say only 100Kb)
- giarc 11y agoLoaded fine for me (Canada).
- kaybe 11y agoIt's fast enough here in Germany as well. (Any lag probably due to my limping computer.)
- icebraining 11y agoAccording to the first site testing tool I found (https://www.dotcom-tools.com/website-speed-test.aspx https://www.dotcom-tools.com/website-speed-test.aspx), there's a clear delay when accessing from outside Europe or Canada. Less than 2s to Frankfurt and London, but 5-6 for the US and 11+ to Australia.
- jbverschoor 11y agoI looked into it. Gzip compression was off, even though it was configured in nginx. Highlightjs was included in my main javascript, while I only need it for the instructions to highlight some html/js/ruby/php. It's a whopping 100kb by itself. I moved this to the instructions page, and I'm using cloudfront now as a CDN.
