[OPTIMISATION] Nginx + PageSpeed mod : MUST HAVE :)

[Foovince]

Hello everybody.

 

 

When your website is online, the first occupation is to get a fast website.

You can analyze your website with google tools - page speed : 

 

https://developers.google.com/speed/pagespeed/insights/

 

Then to fixed items, once of good ways is to get the pagespeed module installed on your webserver.

The module is available on Apache and Nginx (I only tried it on Nginx - The best/reliable server)

 

Its my nginx configuration - We can share tips/advice on this thread

# enable ngx_pagespeed
        pagespeed on;

        pagespeed FileCachePath /var/ngx_pagespeed_cache;

        # disable CoreFilters
        pagespeed RewriteLevel PassThrough;

        # enable collapse whitespace filter
        pagespeed EnableFilters collapse_whitespace;

        # enable JavaScript library offload
        pagespeed EnableFilters canonicalize_javascript_libraries;

        # combine multiple CSS files into one
        pagespeed EnableFilters combine_css;

        # combine multiple JavaScript files into one
        pagespeed EnableFilters combine_javascript;

        # remove tags with default attributes
        pagespeed EnableFilters elide_attributes;

        # improve resource cacheability
        pagespeed EnableFilters extend_cache;

        # flatten CSS files by replacing @import with the imported file
        pagespeed EnableFilters flatten_css_imports;
        pagespeed CssFlattenMaxBytes 5120;

        # defer the loading of images which are not visible to the client
        pagespeed EnableFilters lazyload_images;

        # enable JavaScript minification
        pagespeed EnableFilters rewrite_javascript;

        # enable image optimization
        pagespeed EnableFilters rewrite_images;

        # pre-solve DNS lookup
        pagespeed EnableFilters insert_dns_prefetch;

        # rewrite CSS to load page-rendering CSS rules first.
        pagespeed EnableFilters prioritize_critical_css;

With OpCache, PHP-APC and memcached installed its sooooo good ;-)

Hello,

 

thank you for tip!

 

Can you please share your whole nginx config for prestashop?

 

Because I have problems to solve friendly urls.

 

Thank you!

[Foovince]

Yep :

 

for url rewriting :

rewrite ^/api/?(.*)$ /webservice/dispatcher.php?url=$1 last;
rewrite ^/([0-9])(-[_a-zA-Z0-9-]*)?(-[0-9]+)?/.+\.jpg$ /img/p/$1/$1$2.jpg last;

In which folder do you Install the ngx_pagespeed?

 

Have you tried this PPA? *If you're using ubuntu.

 

https://launchpad.net/~adegtyarev/+archive/ubuntu/nginx-pagespeed

[sennevb]

i have problem in BO since i'm using mod_pagespeed.

I love it but cant edit products anymore.. 

 

I tried disabling pagespeed in backoffice in these ways, but still no use:

 

location /admin {
pagespeed Off;
}


pagespeed Disallow "*/jquery-1.11.0.min.js";
pagespeed Disallow "*/js/jquery/jquery-1.11.0.min.js";

 

 

any clues??

Hi, I had all your pagespeed options set up, but I'm not getting "good" results. I was expecting more improvements.

I only have opcache installed, because somewhere I read that MemCached was designed to balance the load between different servers. And that if you only have one, it's not worth it.

I will discuss how to add APC.

 

Here is pagespeed configuration:

pagespeed on;

ngnix with https2 on dedicated with nvme/ssd is now getting near good vps costs!  last year nvme was 200 a month, still is for lagging hosting.  Now we are seeing nvme 

https://www.fasthosts.co.uk/dedicated-servers

and ovh example

https://www.ovh.com/world/dedicated-servers/advance/adv-2/

we do the nvme and other performance tuning then setup the mysql config properly, all hosting out of box have poor mysql default settings

happy webmastering
