it takes a while for online store to boot. It’s not about hosting. What could it be?
up 
Do you have a link? What version are you on? What server environment are you hosted on? Have you tried any of the ways to speed up CS-Cart that are all over this forum?
If you don’t give any info it is pretty hard to help.

the version is: 2.1.2
My hoster says to me that this is all about cs-cart as it does too many requests and so long to be loaded.
Yep, your site loads slow for me too.
There are some things to try that might speed up your cart. There have been a lot of posts recently about using smartoptimizer. I use smartoptimizer and have been very happy.
I’ve attached smartoptimizer 1.8 to this post. unpack it and put it onto your root. It should look like root/smartoptimizer/the-files
Below is my .htaccess. I’m not 100 % sure if it will work for you, but give it a try. If it doesn’t work, just upload your old .htaccess and you’ll be back to where you are now.
Also, look through the forum. There is a lot of info on here.
Your host is also partially right. CS-Cart is kind of demanding. If your host sucks than your store’s speed is going to suck.
Anyways, here is my .htaccess
```php
DirectoryIndex index.html index.php
RewriteEngine on
Some hostings require RewriteBase to be uncommented
Example:
Your store url is http://www.yourcompany.com/store/cart
So “RewriteBase” should be:
RewriteBase /store/cart
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !.(png|gif|ico|swf|jpe?g|js|css)$
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . index.php?sef_rewrite=1 [L,QSA]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} ./catalog/.
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}/index.html !-f
RewriteRule . index.php?sef_rewrite=1 [L,QSA]
SetOutputFilter DEFLATE
ExpiresActive On
ExpiresDefault “access plus 10 years”
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(..(js|css))$ smartoptimizer/?$1
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f
RewriteRule ^(..(js|css|html?|xml|txt))$ smartoptimizer/?$1
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f
RewriteRule ^(.*.(gif|jpg|jpeg|png|swf|css|js|html?|xml|txt|ico))$ smartoptimizer/?$1
FileETag none
```
Hope that helps,

Wow, that is one slow site… I had to watch lines while the main graphic drew.
This indicates that it’s nothing to do with the cart and everything to do with the host. No graphic should take 5 seconds to render…
