Hi all,

A request for help regarding a very worthy but also very slow (eg, misbehaving?) website please? 

Any and all suggestions for the volunteer website team would be gratefully accepted. Any ideas at all guys.

The website http://www.theshedonline.org.au [27.131.68.217] provides a fine service for the Australian community. It is primarily meant to be a free online men's shed, and does indeed appear to serve that purpose well. There are usually around 70-80 people logged-in, and more-so lately because they have started to 'advetise' on public radio  

However, when there are more than 100 or so logged-in, things lately have been verry slow. Each page will eventually resolve, but maybe take 5 minutes. Most of their pages are 80-90% text, with a few small graphics, no ads and no flash. The site has a simple layout, the CSS would be minimal and their only tracking cookie is from google.  

Please guys, what's going onwith this very worthy charity/non-profit website ?
