Hi!
Ever since we updated to X5 some time ago our site has been really slow. We are now on the latest version (6.4.6?) and it’s equally as slow. Cornerstone and Slider Revolution are also updated.
To be specific Revolution Slider is what’s slowing the site down. If we deactivate Revolution Slider the home page loads in 3 seconds. With it activated load time are about 30 seconds. There’s no obvious reason for this. There are 4 sliders on the home page – ranging from 100k to about 2.5 MB. Smart loading to activated for each of these sliders. We’ve tried removing each of the 4 sliders and load times are reduced 1-2 seconds for each one removed.
In the newer versions of cornerstone the sliders are in a “classic Revolution slider” element-- so I’m wondering if these sliders need to be converted or something? (again we are running the latest v of Rev Slider.
Can someone shed some light??
Many thanks!
