Server optimal server configuration

[Smile]

I have checked https://docs.thirtybees.com/installation/ for the server requirements and did not find it very exciting 😉

We have installed a plain brand new thirty bees. But I found it very slow... >4000 ms

 

I have attached the statistics and cache settings used...

I am wondering can I do more? Because I expect I do something wrong on this test site. We run on a VPS.

What are the server and server software specs? 

[Smile]

Centos -> apache -> nginx -> whm -> cpanel

2 vcpu x64 4gb

[lesley]

That should be fine, is opcache running on your server? 

[lesley]

Oh, also, debug mode and debug profiling should not be run during speed tests... 

[Smile]

Opcache was not running I did enable it now. 

[lesley]

Did that help any?

Can't get very excited: http://beesuits.eu/thbees/

Maybe to many test installations (6-on other cpanel) but should not be an issue as they are not visited...

[lesley]

Where is the server located? Can you turn on debug profiling? Also, which php version are you using? 

[lesley]

As a side note, are you actually testing, or are you relying on the load time to your browser?

Both are under 1.5 seconds, what are you wanting?

7.1 all done, Netherlands.

Well soon we hope to migrate. This is just one of the preparations. Maybe we decide to get some support hours to optimize the server and installation.

 

Looking at the browser and just bu browsing through the site i found it slow and decided to look into it... I also did those two test which strangely do very well.

The internet is a complicated thing. I like to test with several different tests, that way you can rule out localized problems. It does not matter how optimized your site is, if there is an issue between you and the destination server, the loading time will be affected. 

 

If you really want to monitor and test things, you can spin up a digital ocean droplet and use sitespeed.io, we have a post on our blog about it.

Interesting article, bit to much for now but good to keep in mind after the migration.

 

For testing I also use often developertools -> audits.  Anyway I will check this speedtopic again after migration.
