i did a fresh wordpress install on my NAS and on my local machine (notebook). on my notebook anything is running perfect (takes ~3 secs to load) but from my NAS it is really extremely slow :( (taking ~12 secs)

it's the same setup and i couldn't find out the reason .. :(

it seems like that the problem is the internal siteurl (the nas' ip-address) and that wordpress is using it for all paths ..

any ideas? thanks

I guess you already answered the question yourself. The other thing could be that your NAS has a slow harddrive (5.400 rpm) or that your connection is slow.

Edit: Speed up with removing unwanted dashboard items...

Edit #2: Link to a debug plugin that offers time meassuring: Blackbox Bar

i forgot to mention that filetransfer is really fast, also normal use of the webserver. one thing i found out: disabling the dashboard's widgets did it speed up dramatically, but still ~2x slower than from the local machine. – Fuxi Feb 9 '11 at 14:44
Just adjust the plugin i added to your needs if it helps... – kaiser Feb 9 '11 at 15:44
Oh, and look at the link at the bottom of the answer. Maybe this helps too figuring out where the delay is (ex. DB??). – kaiser Feb 9 '11 at 15:45
thx for your reply - i already removed unwanted widgets + checked loading times with firebug. it doesn't help really as with my local version even with widgets it loads fast, but not from the NAS - it all just takes much longer .. – Fuxi Feb 9 '11 at 17:11
The "Blackbox Bar" didn't help anything? It's imo better than firebug (afaik i only know how to look at the network tab) 'cause you can look far more into detail (queries, etc.). – kaiser Feb 9 '11 at 17:19
