Extreme slowness in loading blog & reply box
-
A reader has reported extreme slowness when trying to load my blog and even worse when he tries to load the reply feature to post comments. This has only become a problem in the last month or so. I have checked at my end and had my IT person check, too, and neither of us can duplicate the issue. The reader advises that he has seen a google ad in the crawl when trying to load the reply box and it stalled out completely. This reader is a very valuable contributor to the blog, and I would like to solve the problem. I’ve been advised that going to wordpress.org, as it eliminates ads loading as the blog loads, might eliminate the problem, but I see nothing that confirms that, so I’m at a loss. Hope someone can help!
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

I have found identified two basic things that should help and have instituted them (reducing the number of blogs loading on the front page and using the page break “continue reading” feature). I suspect there are many more basic fixes I could institute, but I have been unable to find information in the forums that seems applicable. If anyone can supply a link to a forum or other site with suggestions for optimizing blog speed that are suitable for a non-tech person, I’d really appreciate it.
