 * Hi guys,
 * Can someone suggest me why my blog is extremely slow?
 * [http://thclabs.writopedia.org/](http://thclabs.writopedia.org/)
 * Is it the theme? Or is it the host server GoDaddy? Or probably some plugin?
 * I have W3 Total Cache activated too.. Apart from that, just Akismet & UserPro,
   that’s it on the plugins…
 * I am working hard to go live with it in 2 days time.. Quick suggestions would
   be appreciated…
 * Cheers

 * The size of you home page is quite big at 3.5mb, and there are 417 requests being
   made, which is pretty high.
 * Sites like [this one](http://tools.pingdom.com/fpt/#!/cKGEtm/http://thclabs.writopedia.org/)
   can help you debug these problems.

 * Thank you. this looks useful. but almost all those 417 are spam requests.. Can
   you guide what can be done about it?
