I'm trying to get them to change it.

Safe Mode should be set to off for all the features of X-Cart to work correctly. To speed X-Cart up disable "Fancy Categories" if you have that add-on. Turn off all features that aren't necessary to you (ie tracking of stats, best buys, other languages, etc.)

The html catalog is great for the search engines to crawl your pages but only from a link on your first page. Once a user selects any help menu item or adds to cart they are bounced out of the html pages never to return again.

I thought the same as you about the speed but after tweaking it found it runs fine. If traffic is heavy on the server or the internet itself you notice a slow down.

I am using Fancy Categories, using "JavaScript to dynamically expand/collapse tree " slowed my site down to 30-40 seconds or more sometimes. compared to 1-2 seconds. Big difference on a VPS.
