  Hi there

  I have installed CloudFlare on my site (www.thebrokebackpacker.com) and since then the site has slowed down to around 20-30 seconds to load the homepage. This doesn’t make much sense to me as I thought CloudFlare was supposed to speed it up. I have also installed W3 Cache plugin and this has made no difference. I have tried removing CloudFlare but this also hasn’t made any difference.

  I’ve contacted name.com for advice but unfortunately they haven’t been very helpful thus far.

  Has anyone else experienced this problem?

  Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

  Thanks
