If I switch off all the plugins the speed issue remains – but if I change theme it speeds up – do I need to increase the memory available or do something else
On the front end it is nice and fast, mainly due to using caching plugins
All help is appreciated
Hey DavidMiles!
You can try increasing your WordPress memory limit via http://www.dailyblogging.org/wordpress/increase-wordpress-memory-limit/
Also make sure you are using a modern browser like Chrome, Firefox or Safari as many users have reported IE having issues.
Cheers!

Thanks Devin – what level do you suggest taking it up to for better performance?
Hi!
I always recommend 128M. Some hosters allow up to 256M.
Cheers!

I’m at 128MB – I don’t think JustHost allow any higher – but the admin crawls
Any further suggestion on this – the site is currently taking an average of 1 minute to save a post or a page – sometimes it takes 2 minutes for a really complex page
The only other thing I could suggest would be to talk to your host and see if they see any issues with timeouts or something like that. I’ve been using the same install for all of Kriesi’s themes with 64mb(on purpose for testing) of memory and hundreds of different pages at this point and am not getting any issues with the admin being overly slow.
Different hosts run WordPress at varied levels and with Enfold there is a lot more going on when you are saving a page because of the extra data with the template builder so the flaws and budget hardware/settings start to get highlighted pretty quickly.
