This is all I am doing to serve images:

The resize function only resizes the first time and uses a cached version of the image after that.

I checked the server and the CPU is not too high so I think it must be HTTP as parent pointed out.

Yes, I checked and all I see is 22 requests. I don't know where OP got the 504 numbers. It also loads instantly for me.

Ignore my comments, then.

I misunderstood your original comment. The reason why there were 500 requests is because I was showing a background full of creepyfaces. It made the site look much nicer but it turns out it didn't scale very well.

:) Well, good thing you updated the site then.
