do a speedtest to find out. You can use http://gtmetrix.com/ or http://tools.pingdom.com/fpt/ to get a reading on your site
Jonathan Drake says
Both of those sites have an outdated version of the Pagespeed scores. The best place to do a speed test is either http://www.webpagetest.org/ or http://developers.google.com/speed/pagespeed/insights/ (see the discussion here about the other tools https://twitter.com/JonathanDrake/status/496354627273900032 )
