How to reduce the time it takes to load my web game? [closed]

Question

I created a puzzle game with Unity and uploaded it to one server. This works fine, but I bought a new server and uploaded my game to it as well. There, the loading time is much longer.

These are the servers:

1. http://pinheadsinteractive.com/Mozzie/ (fast)
2. http://operation-mozzie-free.com/ (slow)

The Unity files are exactly the same from one server to the next.

My client is dissatisfied with the new, slow loading time. So, how can I reduce the time my Unity game takes to load?

Even in some cases they faced the problem that they could not load the game at all. For the the moment, I'm using an iframe on the new sever as a workaround, but the issue still remains unsolved.

This sounds like a bandwidth issue, you second server is just delivering files slower than the first one.

A simple workaround would be to host your files on the first server and refer to them on the second.

It looks like you've already come to this solution yourself, as you second link now uses an iframe, and loads just as fast as the first.

Another option if you want to avoid the iframe would be to refer to the Unity file of server 1 on server 2, so in your Javascript code instead of doing this:

if (typeof unityObject != "undefined") {
    unityObject.embedUnity("unityPlayer",
        "WebPlayer.unity3d",
         960, 600);
}

Try something like that:

if (typeof unityObject != "undefined") {
    unityObject.embedUnity("unityPlayer",
        "http://pinheadsinteractive.com/Mozzie/WebPlayer.unity3d",
         960, 600);
}

Not sure if this will work but you could give it a shot.
