Heavy calculations slow down the website

    I’m developing a live scoring system. I started making al lot of calculations on the live page, but found out quite quickly that this slowed down the -probably- most-viewed page of the whole website. So I moved all the calculations to a page “page-calculator”. This page inserts all the results into the DB and the Live Page reads them from the DB.

    Question: How can I run page-calculator every n seconds to perform the calculations and store them in the DB again?

    I run my website on an online webhost, not on a local server.

    I’ve got no knowledge of cron jobs, exec etc. I’ve been looking for hours now. Appreciate any help, thanks!

    I’m sorry to hear that you are having trouble. However, http://windmeetfreestyletour.com/ is a self-hosted WordPress.org blog, which we really can’t help with.

    To clear up any confusion, WordPress.com and WordPress.org are two different entities: http://support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

    WordPress.org has complete documentation and support sites for self-hosted/installed versions of WordPress.org at http://codex.wordpress.org/ and http://wordpress.org/support/
