Mayur,
Your site loading time is fast. Nice!
webwait uses your internet link to benchmark site, and you can not determine what exactly take your site to load so long time, if any.
I would also recommend this free online website performance testing tool: http://Site-Perf.com/
It measure loading speed of page and it’s requisites (images/js/css) like browsers do and shows nice detailed chart – so you can easily spot bottlenecks.
It’s very detailed and accurate, supports a lof of features like Keep-Alive or HTTP-compression.
Also very useful thing is that this tool is able to verify network quality of your server (packet loss level and ping delays).
Well, that was interesting; said my site loaded in 6.59 seconds. I’ll take that any day of the week.
