I've found what the problem is.
It is the WIDGETS.
I have 7 widgets in use for the layout of my 'homepage' .
I removed them and just used the 'theme options' ---> 'general' settings,
and selected 80 random videos to populate my homepage.
Homepage now loads fine. Instead of up to 12 secs, now under 1 sec.
(however, i've obviously lost my custom layout)
I put one widget back in the 'homepage' (random video block) to test the speed.
It is taking on average 0.4 secs to execute , which is crazy slow.
Please fix this asap. Something must of gone wrong in a recent update.
Theme was working fine a couple of weeks ago.
Thanks.
ps. @brian mike - hope this helps ?
