How To Speed Up And Get Better Performance

Hi,
I know the performance topic has been discussed a lot here but still I need advice>.
Recently, I've installed Multi vendor Cs-cart v4.9 with demo data on dedicated server
(Intel i3 Dual Core 2 x 120 GB SSD 16GB RAM)and
applied all minimum requirements and recommendation for performance
(Apcu,opcache,redis, imagick,compress) 
and finally I am working on Nginx, PHP-FPM 
However, still loading page time 1-3 sec. I plan to get around 1 sec. 
 
So could you please advise me how to speed up the website?

Use cdn and varnish

Buy a different server? We use AWS EKS and get response times of 150ms without varnish and apcu.

150 ms ttfb right?

Also varnish really inserance doom load speed 10x same as ttfb

Buy a different server? We use AWS EKS and get response times of 150ms without varnish and apcu.

Really, how a big difference?

I don't prefer to use AWS now? Is there another option?

How can I know that the problem in the performance is from the server? in other words how can I measure the capabilities of my server after I choose better hardware?

Is using Nginx, PHP-FPM will make a big difference

150 ms ttfb right?

Can I achieve that using varnish


Use cdn and varnish

Some use cdn, but they don't find a big difference

poppedweb also right your cpu poor. you can achieve partially with varnish.

Thank you so much for your responses, and could you please give more details

thx

You can choose xeon e5 cpu

I tested cs-cart on my local server e5-2650 x 2 cpu with varnish ttfb is 2-3 ms without varnish 130-140 ms

I've installed varnish and make it a reverse proxy to apache but the website doesn't appear the front page although I can log in to administrator panel. Is there any configuration I need to do in Cs-cart. Now,

thank you so much

Hi,

I 've installed varnich as a front proxy for apache, but loading time is still 2-3 sec

any advice

you have to configure varnish for cs-cart, for telling which pages cache or pass, with default config varnish pass all pages, search on google about varnish configuration samples, Or you need cs-cart addon like this

Thank you so much Teosu for responding

Could you please tell me about your plan with AWS EKS

Yeah its pretty easy to install, although you will need a bit of custom development and preconfiguring, as you can not make changes to your code in the backend. After that you will have to rework a few classes to use different connections and then your software is completely scalable. Besides the fact that it is scalable, it will also reduce hosting costs as on AWS EKS you only pay for the compute power you use, so it is very efficient.

Ok, Thanks

The above, and other posts by some users in other topics have been gerated by ChatGPT (you can feed it back in and ChatGPT will confirm this). It is worth noting that ChatGPT disclaimer indicates that it is known to make some errors, not that anything stands out in this particular post.

I note that cs-cart documentation provides some specfic tips … How To: Increase the Performance of Your Store — CS-Cart 4.16.x documentation

cs-cart also wrote an article Several Server Tweaks and Recommendations to Get Maximum Speed out of CS-Cart and Multi-Vendor | eCommerce Blog on Running an Online Marketplace (noting a little dated, there is a seperate topic in the forum discussing move PHP to 8.1, though at the time of writing today it is anticipated the documentation will not be updated to recommend PHP 8.1 until version 4.17+ of cs-cart).

… and in another post @magpiedon recommends “Enabling PHP extension Zend OPCache and installing the PHP PECL module APCu in your PHP installation will dramatically speed up your website.”
