Thanks Ron, yes it is useable. The "first byte" delays look reasonable at 0.690s and 0.502s which tells me you're not having a connectivity issue at least for this test. I'd be very interested in seeing a webpagetest result for one of your 30s thread reading delays.

Hi Greg, I think I'm set for the time being. MyBB requires redirects to be placed in the .htaccess file. Currently I'm using a 301 response which means a "permanent" redirect to the https url. My .htaccess file is pretty complex because of all the google seo crap in it. I have no choice but to do redirects at this level.

All I really want from the SSL Certificate is the static IP address. Actually using https is optional and experimental. It's a little messy because there are links that I bring in on various pages that aren't https so on occasion you may see a "security.mixed_content.block_active_content" error message. If anyone sees this let me know and I'll either restore things to http or tell you how to modify settings in your browsers to ignore these messages and continue loading content. An example of where you might see this error is when you navigate over to the "User Locations" toplink which sucks in a bunch of non-secure google mapping stuff.

BTW, don't let all this highfalutin language lead you into falsely believing that I know what I'm talking about... Thanks everyone for helping out; I often don't know that we have performance problems unless someone tells me.
