Please check out my site: pyterminator.com
The site opens very late. I don’t know what the reason is.
I used dj-static package in wsgi file. Does this affect performance?

wsgi.py :

import os
from dj_static import Cling 
from django.core.wsgi import get_wsgi_application

os.environ.setdefault('DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE', 'core.settings')  
application = Cling(get_wsgi_application())

I bought the “Starter hosting” package and deployed there. Through C-Panel. Could this be the reason for poor performance?

I use these packages.
