heavy on the database? got a lot more work to do than just removing random images from results, its takes a long time to display search results in web browser from united states and your lucky if the server doesnt time out before you can see results from ipad or tablet. i cant imagine how long it takes from other countrys. website recieved an "A" for first byte time which im sure every site recieves, an "F" grade on everything else and im running a high powered server from usa and this test comes from cable speed from dules VA.
