Database Optimization
Is it just me or are there some really heavy database joins going on with Clipper?
My site is on a VPS with 4GB ram and 2CPUs and should absolutely fly, but it doesn't.
I have W3 Total Cache installed, so when a page is cached it is fine, for example:
Time to First Byte on the homepage is 11 seconds (!), but when it is cached it is 0.094 seconds. I'm pretty sure the issue is the database queries that the theme makes to the db to return the coupons.
Does anyone else have these issues and any hints? I have the latest theme installed.
