Increase Page Speed

Currently I am having page speed score of 87 for Google page speed. Just wondering if there will be any page speed addon for cs cart v.2.2.4?

Also, how can I move all java script down, which file I should look to modify it?

Any advise would be really appreciate.

Thank you.

Hello, rosepleasure!



It's not a trivial task to increase page speed, the proper work should be done with your exact store.



You can find a file which you are asking about in this directory skins/your_skin/customer/common_templates/scripts.tpl



Also, you can always contact us for any custom development service.



Best regards, Alt-team

Hi Alt-team,



Thank you. ;)

I switched from shared to dedicated and doubled page loading time if not tripled and has not slowed down one bit, on a shared we were having all kinds of issues with loads

That must be the most confusing sentence I ever read. But I assume you mean switching to dedicated it speeded things up :)

Yes, so far on my new dedicated server, speed is not an issue at all. If you can allot enough resources to cs-cart it's great.

I had 85 on Google page speed and site was running fine for the past year or so, VPS. Last week it slowed to s crawl and my host said it was due to keep alive keeping too many open at once for too long. I noticed they disabled keep alive in my Google page aspeed info and my score dropped to 65, I asked them to enable it and they said it is better to leave it off. Gotta say site still loads and runs fast but I am concerned Google will see this as a negative, Anyone else have any info on it?

oh… and 3 other sites on same VPS didnt seem to slow at all ?

JOhn

Having keepalive enabled saves time on negotiating subsequent connection requests, so it is better to have it enabled. You can also change the keepalive timeout value, setting this to a low value say 4 seconds would reduce connections being kept open for to long.



Example:

KeepAlive Off:

Your web page consists of 30 objects (html, css, js, images, etc) all these will require connection negotiation (look at gtmetrix.com or pingdom.tools and you will see connection time for every request).



KeepAlive On:

Browser will hold say upto 8 connections open, so remaining 22 objects (no connection negotiation required) will download quicker. These connections will timeout after 4 seconds of no further request with KeepAlive timeout = 4 seconds



I would also limit the total number requests for a persistent connection to around 150

It is a shorter version

About Page Speed, to reach 90/100 or more, just read this great article: [url=“http://www.gibni.com/optimize-cs-cart-store”]http://www.gibni.com/optimize-cs-cart-store[/url]



It gives you great ideas to start with and it talks “CS-Cart”.

It talks about CSS/JS compression, CDN, htaccess, core mods and more…



I asked Gibni.com to optimize my market place ([url=“https://www.odience.net/market/”]https://www.odience.net/market/[/url]) and here are the results:

[list]

[]I went from 70/100 to 95/100 speed score (Pingdom.com),

[
]I went from 75/100 to got 90/100 from Google Page speed, B grade,

[*]I went from 74/100 (D grade) to 87/100 from YSlow, B grade (GTmetrix.com).

[/list]

Give it a shot, and you will run faster! :-)

What was the price for these optimization?

I noticed a big difference on my server load when I switched to litespeed. It really helped out a lot.

It took about two weeks of work for basic optimizations and custom configurations as I host on shared hosting ( Great, Huh?!)

I asked Gibni.com to provide me a package of the tunings useable for all CS-Cart installations that I will commercialise on my store, odience Market, very soon.



You could expect the package to be less than 100€ with optional integration and installation (price will depend on your requirements and current setup).



Cheers.

In case switching to dedicated server is not the option, here are some steps to optimize the page speed for your store:





[indent=1]1) make sure you're using the correct format for pictures: png or jpeg (for vector pictures and photos correspondingly)[/indent]

[indent=1]2) combine your images into CSS sprites (it'll reduce the number of HTTP requests)[/indent]

[indent=1]3) minify your CSS and Java (get rid of unnecessary characters)[/indent]

[indent=1]4) place CSS in the header and Java in the footer of the page.[/indent]

[indent=1]5) avoid using too much animations[/indent]

[indent=1]6) use measuring tools to find out what's slowing down your site.[/indent]





You may use Shopping Cart Diagnostics to monitor your website speed and find out possible culprits.

NGinx + PHP-FPM + XCache = Super Fast Server and Low memory overheads.



NGinx is a modern web-server with many features which make CS-Cart fly. Freeing up memory which can be used to also boost MySQL performance.



Switching to NGinx could boost performance, save memory, and save you money $$$ from upgrading to the next server level.

Well yes but for us normal mortal humans it is a pain in the b** to make the switch i want to do it but i don't have the know how to get started on such a project.



also how to make the rewrite work ? i think i read somewhere that .htaccess and rewrite doesn't work the same way on NGinx.
