Opencart slow loading - Struggling to update orders

Hi all
I'm running OC2.2.0. As part of cost cutting measures a few years back I moved it to my shared hosting account.
Just been having a few issues recently with it taking a while to load pages and just had some other issues trying to update order statuses. Would my shared hosting be slowing me down, am I better moving it back to 34sp? Do i just need to upgrade to a newer version.

On a side note - Could i create a new site by loading OC to another domain, sorting it all out then moving it onto the original domain.

I look forward to your responses

The first thing I'd do is see what pagespeed thinks of your site IF you don't know what is slowing it down: https://pagespeed.web.dev/
Also you can see if your webhost can tell you about the things that are weighing down your website.

We can do a Technical Audit of your site if you like which will test everything from the speed of the server to the code quality and look for any potential speed problems?
