Magento

When I goto Catalog > Manage Products, it takes around 5 seconds to load.  Sounds like a short time, but with an ajax internet and many things to do, it feels like im waiting for ages.  Happens with some other pages in the backend too.  Anyone else notice this? 

I’ve installed it using the 1 click install with MediaTemple

whole backend is slow for me.

I agree with this. I am running the a fresh install of Magento locally on Apache 2.0.59 wth MySQL 5 and PHP 5.2 and the admin tool is annoyingly slow. I usually run osCommerce locally for all my e-commerce development and the admin tool for that is way faster than the current levels I am experiencing on Magento. I haven’t uploaded Magento to my webserver yet so have yet to experience speeds over http://

Yes.. its slow… i just installed a fresh copy of magento1.0 in my server..  im quite worried if there are already lots of products to load in the admin.. i wonder how much time will it take for the loading. :( little bit worried about it..

I hope anyone could have a solution for this one. Im excited to use magento in my client’s store.

Mine is super slow AND I get “unresposive script\” messages every time I click “save” or “Save and continue” when editing.  I have to hit “continue” on the script error 3x before it’ll actually save my changes.  Taking FOREVER to get anything done.

I have 300+ products in my products area so I expect that to go slow… but going into an individual product takes forever too. (not due to script errors.)

Why mine was going so slow:

I use Firefox browser on a Mac and had some “add-ons” that were conflicting. 

I disabled all of my add-ons and now it’s lightning-fast AND all errors have ceased.

Hope this helps the rest of you too.

We had the same problem with MediaTemple (gs) and with Mosso’s similar cloud hosting environment. The front end was even slower than the backend, but the slow backend made it tedious to add products.

Moving to a faster hosting plan (MediaTemple (dv) for us, insert your preferred host here) solved the problem for us.

slower than the frontend, which definitely makes it slow. i use firefox2, but have since tried it in safari 3, where it was lightning fast after caching the first time.

i’m still going to use firefox though, its not slow enough to stop me.
