Correct me if I'm wrong, but It sounds like you tried a whole bunch of
optimizations before you identified what was actually causing the slow
down. I'm not surprised that you're still experiencing slowness. When
this happens to me, I first investigate the problem thorougly so I
understand what is causing the problem before I start implementing
optimizations.
Try using the Firefox extension Live HTTP Headers so you can identify if
the problem is on the server side or client side (it could be that your
PHP code is running slowly, but it could also be that your pages are
slow to actually load in the browser)
