Thanks all, i understand there isn't really anything i can do about it
.... :(
Except for switching DB-system (not really an option now) or optimize
the PHP codes, which i already made as good as i'm capable of at the
moment ...
About the caching of data: if i first 'wake the server up' by accessing
the news
section of the site, and then go to links (both from DB) links is still
a lot faster,
as when visited immediately, though it's not in cache ...
(First load really takes up to 10 secs, second up to 0.8 (still quite
slow), can't be
normal ... )
The site is on a shared host.
Anyway, thanks again!
