Performance of Website

[Samval]

Hi There,

I have just gone live with my CMS MS website. However, I see it takes a long time to generate a web page.

Are there any optimisation tricks or tips that I could use to speed up the website?

Any help would be appreciated.

Regards,

if you do a few searches of the forum... you may find some tips and tricks like removing the {stylesheet} tag etc..

Yes, use Google to search the forum for such words : speed, slow, performance, time, cache...

You also don't post much info.  Take a look at the generated source of the page and see how many seconds it took to create the page.  If that's high, then it's most likely your database that's the culprit.

Caching might help, a little, but a slow database will always equal a slow database driven site.

Samval: and everybody else

From now on, posts that do not provide exact details of issues, and ways to reproduce problems will just be deleted.  We don't have the time to fool with people that don't have the time to provide details.

'It takes a long time to generate a web page' doesn't help anybody.  You're just wasting your time, and ours.

Install eAccelerator if you are able to on your server and in the index.php file change @ob_start(); to @ob_start('ob_gzhandler'); if your server will handle gzip compression.

Surprisingly, Tips & Tricks forum has a sticky thread named Speeding up CMSMS. You should look there: http://forum.cmsmadesimple.org/index.php/topic,13809.0.html  (read it all)

@Calguy: Getting OT, but when you delete the post which breakes the forum guidelines, will the poster be informed about why it was deleted? Something like automatic (and explaining) e-mail, or explaining post... for "education" purposes.
