Site optimization

• PHP:
  • php accelerator = NO - WARNING (Dolphin can be much faster if you install some php accelator))
  • php setup = cgi-fcgi - WARNING (your PHP setup maybe very inefficient, please check it for sure and try to switch to mod_php, apache dso module or FastCGI)
• MySQL:

• Web-server:
  • User-side caching for static conten = click here to check it in Google Page Speed
    If it is not enabled then please consider implement this optimization, since it improve perceived site speed and save the bandwidth, refer to this tutorial on how to do this.
    To apply this optimization you need to have expires_module Apache module - OK
  • Server-side content compression = can be checked manually or in "Page Speed" tool build-in into browser.
    If it is not enabled then please consider implement this optimization, since it improve perceived site speed and save the bandwidth, refer to this tutorial on how to do this.
    To apply this optimization you need to have deflate_module Apache module - FAIL (You will need to install deflate_module for Apache)
• Dolphin:
  • DB cache = On (File based cache engine) - WARNING (installing php accelerator will speed-up file cache)
  • Page blocks cache = Off (File based cache engine) - FAIL (please enable this cache in Dolphin Admin Panel -> Settings -> Advanced Settings)
  • Member menu cache = On (File based cache engine) - WARNING (installing php accelerator will speed-up file cache)
  • Templates Cache = Off (FileHtml based cache engine) - FAIL (please enable this cache in Dolphin Admin Panel -> Settings -> Advanced Settings)

  • JS files cache = Off - FAIL (please enable this cache in Dolphin Admin Panel -> Settings -> Advanced Settings)
  • Compression for CSS/JS cache = Off - FAIL (please enable this cache in Dolphin Admin Panel -> Settings -> Advanced Settings)

ok

You can optimize your site depending on how PHP is processed, and if you have an accelerator installed.  This requires a VPS or higher, so you can ignore the messages if using shared hosting.  You can actually ignore these "warnings" entirely, since they are only suggestions.

The messages telling you about file cache can be changed on shared hosting, though.  You should probably leave file caching and compression enabled, unless you're making changes involving the template.

Thanks You.

Can anyone assist with this Warning?

php accelerator = eAccelerator - OK

php setup = cgi-fcgi - WARNING (your PHP setup maybe very inefficient, please check it for sure and try to switch to mod_php, apache dso module or FastCGI)

The recommended setup is to have PHP run as an Apache module, but running under CGI (or cgi-fcgi in this case) also works.  You can ignore that warning, especially on shared.  But if on a VPS or higher, you can do something about it (but it's not really worth it).

I don't like the way these "warnings" are given.  Most don't really matter, and the idea of warning about having an older version of PHP can be ridiculous, especially since that warning seems to work off a feed of the latest releases and not something meaningful.

But if on a VPS or higher, you can do something about it (but it's not really worth it)

Well, it is on a dedicated server...pretty fast machine, but the site doesn't load as quick as I'd like! lol

If you don't think it would make a big difference, then I guess I'll just ignore it.

Thanks for the reply!
