Slow load and what is init?

Howdy people,

Just wondering if anyone has any issues with slow load times on this site?

(I realise its stacked full of images but its a 3/4 second delay before the site starts to load at all)

I’ve installed WP Tuner and the culprit seems to be init, taking up a whopping 68% of page generation performance time.

How can I improve this?

(I’ve done all the usual disabling plugins etc)

Cheers all.
