Hi Bet,
Sorry about the delayed response.
Thank you so much for the reply and suggestions.
When you tested in #8 above, were you testing on a Windows live server or a Windows localhost?
– I tested this with a Windows localhost
– Oddly enough, I installed a fresh Centos VM and imported the backup and DB export and it was incredibly quick.
You might try checking it out with the P3 plugin profiler plugin, just to see what’s taking up resources.
– Tried this, told me an RSS Feed plugin was using up the resources – I completely removed the plugin with no change.
Have you tried optimizing and repairing the database?
– I took it as far as completely dropping the database and starting from scratch, no difference.
I honestly have no idea what else to do 🙂
Any help or ideas? 🙂
Thanks!
