XF 2.2 Slow image loading: 2-10 seconds

[ColumbiaCS]

My forum seems to be extremely slow when it comes to loading images. I am currently using Redis, Lazy Image Loading, and Image Optimizer on a dedicated server (Bluehost). Does anyone have any suggestions?

Post Your Colorful Dials

In general, I think, most dials are black or white. When I look at my collection I have 3 white dial watches and 8 black dial watches. But quite often I prefer a more colorful dial. This thread is to bring more color to the forum. 1. Grand Seiko SBGE257 2. Seiko Sarb065 3. Eterna Super...

The images definitely take awhile to populate in the dom. It's not instantaneous. See this image-heavy thread: https://www.watchforum.com/threads/whats-on-your-wrist-created-by-bloomincookie.1043/page-426

Another vote for it probably being your connection because it also loads fast for me.

And another, fine for me.

Might wanna run a speed test just to confirm it's you.

Fast for me too.

It's only loading small thumbnails and they're being loaded from a CDN so they're not actually coming from the forum at all. So either connection or an issue with the CDN which has resolved itself.

Instant loading on a 1gb fiber connection. It has to be your computer or connection, not the site.

Loads instantly here, too.

What's your Setup -> Options -> Maximum attachment file size set to?

It's pretty instant for me as well, I'd run a tracert. That might give you an idea of where the bottleneck is.

Check this with your isp mate. It's possibly that rather than xf.

 

[nodle]

I can confirm as well, plenty fast.

Thank you for everyone who tested and responded. The Xenforo community is amazing and very helpful.

Ideally, what should this setting be set to?
