[TYPO3-commerce] how to Improve rendering-time of commerce?

[Franz Koch]

Hi list,

commerce is quite slow on my customers server. Ok, it's a shared host 
and the server itself seems not to be the fastest also - but the 
rendering of one article in listView takes up to 5 seconds - which is to 
  much even for the slow server I think. I was expecting a maximum of 
about 2 seconds.
In comparison a fully cached page takes about 200/300 ms (I know, still 
quite slow).

My test-settings:
- PHP 4.3.10
- TYPO3 4.1.2
- about 300 categories
- for now just 1 article in the DB!
- commerce_pi1 set to USER_INT
- everything else on the page is cached

Any hint's where I could start debugging?  I saw that 
$this->cObj->substituteMarkerArray is used very often instead of the 
cached version - but changing this didn't give any significant improvements.

Unfortunately I don't have any access to the server besides of FTP, as 
it is a shared host.

Any ideas besides moving to a different server?
