Delay in loading page

  • Using JSL3 fbwf as a widget in the sidebar, my website acts as follows: when loading/refreshing a page (any page!), the header (I’m using twenty twelve theme) shows instantaneous, and after approx. 2 seconds the content page and sidebar show. When I disable the widget, all show instantaneous. So I guess it takes some time for the widget to get and process the fb-data. Is it possible to give priority to the loading of the content page?

    I don’t have any control over how the theme will render a page. Make sure you have the thoroughness option unchecked, as that will slow down the plugin considerably. Also, you may want to consider reducing the number of posts you retrieve to help improve performance.

    Thoroughness was already unchecked. I reduced the number of posts from 10 to 5. Lagging reduced by half to around 1 second.
    I guess my real question is: Is this normal behaviour?

    It depends on your server’s connection to https://graph.facebook.com

    Could you give me some guidance how to check/improve this?

    Try running the following command on your server:

    curl "https://graph.facebook.com/YOUR_FACEBOOK_ID/feed?locale=en_US&limit=5&access_token=YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN" > results.txt

    Replace YOUR_FACEBOOK_ID with the Facebook ID you are using for the plugin. Replace YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN with the access token listed on the settings page for the plugin. Change the locale and limit as appropriate.

    The plugin uses cURL to download your feed from https://graph.facebook.com. Running the command directly on your server should give you an idea of how long it takes.
