 * I have a member list of around 425 entries. It’s terribly slow to look anyone
   up.
 * I am also checking with our hosting company, but in the mean time any tips to
   improve performance?

 * The issue is that you’re loading 425 entries on a single page… that is similar
   to trying to load 425 WordPress posts on a single page. You need one of the [templates which support pagination](https://connections-pro.com/templates/).
   If that is not a route you would like to take, since the page does actually render
   without erroring out due to insufficient resources, you could try a page caching
   plugin such as WP Rocket (not affiliated in any way, just my preferred caching
   I personally use).
 * Hope this helps!

 * Thanks! I purchased a new template that supports pagination, and it seems to 
   be helping a lot. Any other optimization tips I should consider?
 * Thanks again!

 * As far as Connections is concerned … nothing comes to mind. I try to make sure
   everything is optimal by default.
