   Hi all,

   Load time for my pages are consistently around 3 seconds. First, here are my install details:

   Win2K3 Server 64bit
   IIS6 running 32bit Fast CGI
   PHP 5.2.9
   MySQL 5.1
   Wordpress 2.7.1

   I've tested PHP and it works great. MySQL is good to go and my server-to-server connections are fine. Installed GetVanilla to see if it displayed the same behavior and its responses were nearly instantanious for every dynamic requests. Will probably throw a few other apps on to check as well.

   However, with WordPress, I am experiencing a very consistent 3 second (approximate) delay on every request made on the blog. Admin pages take around 6-12 seconds to load/refresh. The database is fresh...only the install sample data exists. I've added no plugins. This behavior exists on the above mentioned server as well as on my local development machine. It also exists whether I connect to a MySQL instance installed on the same machine as the web server or on a different machine that serves data only.

   Does anyone have any clues that might help fix this problem? (Other than a LAMP stack or IIS7...which works very well with WP.)

   Thanks in advance!

   Good news...found the solution to this problem.

   It is related to WordPress checking the web for updates to the core code and plugins (possibly other requests, but disabling these two greatly eliminated my problem). The code clearly moves along if a response is not returned these items in 3 seconds (wp-includes/update.php).

   My development server and development box are behind a proxy server which needs some additional information in order for the requests to pass through to the web.

   how did you configure wordpress to use the proxy server for outgoing requests?
