Can someone give me a solid lead on why this is? My site (Globalhosting shared acct.) was suspended for a bit and when it came back up it went from taking 3-4 second to load to now where it takes 40 seconds (if at all). Can it be:

- My hosts SQL server?
- A faulty module? ( I haven't installed anything new for awhile)
- A table in my SQL server?
- Something else?

The site is:
http://blackfootcountry.com

Thanks for any leads.

Look this report for your site.

You can also use firefox with the plugin firebug.

Took me almost 39 seconds to load your site. I have verizon FiOS 15 down /2 Mbps up.

Let me be the first to tell you get a new host!

By the way you have one very cool site!

Looks like they have a few issues over at web hosting talk... I didn't read them all but hey it's a start.

There website took 13 seconds to load... Even thats slow in my book.

4 seconds (ish) for your site to load for me just now, fyi.

Thanks for all your testing, it'll give me a basis for a dialogue with my host who says it takes them like .6 seconds or something.

script_fu, thanks for the words.

I'll consider another host depending on if they can get it corrected or not. I'll post back with my next course of action once it all shakes down.

took me just under 2 seconds to fully load

again nice site btw

Took only seconds for myself, I'm on a 20mb cable connection.

Looks like a cool site.

The second tech they sent my way told me to do a trace route. So I did.

Her reply? That it was a problem with my ISP (Shaw). I may bee looking at this wrong but isn't the majority of the timeouts at their end? She even closed my ticket without asking me anything further.

Maybe this might help. Your home page had a whole bunch of these on the bottom of the page:
