This is what i would like to know.The reason is because my site is

And i cant tell wether php is doing it or html o is it another reason
because i only have 20gb bandwidth

My site is called :
ultimate city the game http://www.ultimate-gamez.net

It depends on what you're doing. For instance:

for ($i = 0, $j=0; $i < 1000000; $i++)
$j = $i + $j;

will slow down your server. So can inefficient SQL queries and/or a
poor database design. Or too many images/images that are too big. Or a
lot of other things.

spamming your site in this newsgroup can also slow down your site due to
the increased traffic you get from this popular newgroup

yah, like others have said.. bad code, bad database design, too many
images tat are too big, and a lot of other things can slow down your
server.
that said, it also depends on who your hosts are.. some hosts are
known to have slow servers. I cant think of any known slow web hosts
off the top of my head.. but I know there are some out there that have
really slow servers.

In our last episode,
<d6**********************************@d1g2000hsg.g ooglegroups.com>, the
lovely and talented pe***************@googlemail.com broadcast on
comp.lang.php:

Does php slow your website down?

Every kind document that uses any kind server-side processing is going to be
at least a little bit "slower" than a static document of similar size from
the same server. If you have static pages, it only makes sense to serve
them without any server parsing. You can avail yourself of the advantages
of modular design by generating such pages --- using php cli, perl, make,
other preprocessors, shell scripting, or whatever you like --- offline.

That being said, most complaints of "slow loading" are really effects of
poor design --- huge graphics, inefficient database calls, poor use of
styles (so the browser cannot makeup the page until it gets the whole
thing).

Programming languages don't slow things down. Bad design and bad coding do
slow things down.

Although not a PHP issue, the JS page refresh is very annoying. If
anything, this only worsens your problems.

And you have 150% more <bodyelements than you need.
And you don't use external style sheets.
And you have batches of CSS in the middle of the <body>s.
And you have unnecessary time-consuming JavaScript.
And ... well, I tire of listing page and design errors.

Your monthly allotted bandwidth has nothing to do with the speed of
delivering pages.
