- The Rocktetheme templates are unacceptable slow. Look at www.joomlapolis.com , the demo of the fast template. What a great difference. An example for the next RocketTheme template?

Most of the templates are pretty fast...
A lot has to do with the customization you do to the template, images, 3rd party scripts, etc.
Along with that, your hosting can be a major factor. - Thanks,

Disable RokTwittie and it loads in 1½ second
- Please reply with a direct link to the issue & create a new thread for each new issue.
A template is only as good as the content that goes into it

A nice tool is "the performance Grader",
on www.joomlaperformance.com/component/opti...rformance/Itemid,52/
Checking my site: www.web66.nl/varadero gives a bad result due to the RT templates in my opinion

I compared Joomla with default template and the latest standard RT template with NO customization. The difference was 2-3 seconds. In my opinion that is slow, too slow.
While I might agree with you about the speed, I have found that RT templates have a lot more built-in features than the default templates. To me, the added features more than outweigh the slight increase in loading speed. I guess that it depends on what you want in a template - I need the extra features, and so I'm prepared to sacrifice a bit of loading speed. And none of my clients has ever complained, so far.
