Speed Test is my SERVER SLOW?
 

My site seems to be very slow on my end the past few days and I am losing sales as a result. My host has informed me that it is because my videos are too big but I didnt have this problem before. It is saying 45 minutes to download a 248 mb video and that is a problem in my eyes. Please test my site and let me know how slow it is. Im am sick of the web host's excuses please help me determine if I am correct and my server is slow for http://jayspovsite.com/home.html

The trailers loaded instantly before but now is super slow on my end.

Initial loading is slow.


NY , on High Speed Cable connection.

the trailers are also slow , they start then buffer and so on...

Post a test file or vid up and we can test dl speed also

who is your host? they could be throttling your connection because you have a high demand on your site with 1,000,000+ bytes of images on the landing page

Pretty slow here too.

Very slow.

http://jayspovsite.com/trailers/chassitie_trailer.f4v

It is downloading at 150KB/sec

WEBAIR should be ashamed of this kind of performance.


What kind of plan do you with Webair?

21 seconds for it to completely load. Speedtest.net says I am getting 18.51 Mbps down right now.

I just got the issue resolved. Check it now.

4 seconds now.

Looks good now.

You have to watch a lot of hosts. They will often try things like throttling connections per thread down to something ridiculous like 50K. That just doesn't work well for streaming video.

I can understand throttling streaming videos because most of the time the surfer just skips around.

3 secs to load, video buffered once

It can make sense but on a dedicated you should know about it.

50K * 8 = 400 kb/s

Most tube scripts run around 700 - 900 kb/s by default or it buffers all the time. Many surfers will go somewhere else if the video pauses every few seconds.

Not exactly fast.
