Java Games Re-development/Performance tuning

This is a request for proposals on revamping an existing game portal. Currently I have a game portal that allows users to play 4 different card games as wll as Chess and Backgammon. The Site is modeled after Yahoo!Games and it is in working order. However, because the number of users are growing, I need some one that is well versed in Java programming/Game development to review the site and tune it for better performance. Currently the applets sometimes hang, do not load etc. In addition I need the developer to revamp the website as well but that is not the big task (maybe 1 or two web pages and CSS) Please provide your profile/experience for reviw before the bid is accepted. **Please also note that upon successful copletion of the project, the bidder is reimbursed with 50% of the funds.
