While testing in our corp environment (we use IE6) Laconica load times are unusably slow. The front page hangs for up to 15 seconds and each page takes between 5-10 seconds.

There's no firebug for IE6 so I'm not sure to go about debugging the slowness.

Anyone have any ideas how to speed laconica up in IE6? (dont say use FF cuz i cant change that :P)

So, IE6 is not one of the browsers that we're targeting for releases. That doesn't mean we don't want it to work; we just don't have anyone who's willing to work on making it work.

That said, I have a few suggestions for you:

1) Move your avatars to another server (or virtual server). That should make loading things faster, since the browser will connect to both servers concurrently. Note that you don't need two IP addresses, just two hostnames.

2) Make sure Gzip compression is turned on on the server.

3) Test with Firefox or a later version of IE to see if the performance problem is on the server side.
