XDebug is a tool that allows developers to profile PHP applications to identify bottlenecks and anomalies. It works by instrumenting PHP code during execution and collecting metrics on runtime performance. The document provides instructions on installing XDebug, taking profiling samples of a WordPress site, and analyzing the results with Webgrind to identify expensive functions and optimize performance. With repeated profiling and analysis, developers can pinpoint specific code causing issues and refactor it for better efficiency.
This document discusses PageSpeed, a tool for just-in-time performance optimization of web pages. It provides automatic image compression and resizing, CSS and JavaScript minification, inline small files, caching, and deferring JavaScript among other optimizations. While most performance issues are well understood, not all websites are fast due to the tradeoff between speed and ease of maintenance. PageSpeed tools like mod_pagespeed can automate optimizations to improve performance without extra work from developers.
An introduction to .htaccess and what this file can do to help with SEO. Redirects: - Mod_alias and mod_rewrite - Most common redirect types (domain migrations, subdomain to folder and folder renaming and how to deal with duplicate content). Indexing & Crawling: - Set HTTP headers for canonicals and meta robots for non-HTML files. Website speed: - Gzip and Deflate - Cache control
EasyEngine is a command-line tool for managing WordPress sites on Nginx. It aims to provide an easy and automated way to install, manage and optimize WordPress sites. Key features include automated installation of PHP, MySQL, Nginx and caching plugins. Sites can be created and managed through simple commands. EasyEngine uses conventions over configuration and file-based backups to make management simple. The roadmap includes improved debugging, monitoring, mail server support and a REST API.
The document discusses various techniques for optimizing the front-end performance of websites, including minification, CSS sprites, domain sharding, image optimization, and HTTP caching. It provides examples and best practices for each technique to reduce file sizes, HTTP requests, and load times to improve user experience.
This presentation was presented on October 31, 2012 at BarCamp Tampa Bay, FL. It was made to discuss the basics of Optimizing your WordPress Site.
This document discusses how to maintain large web applications over time. It describes how the author's team managed a web application with over 65,000 lines of code and 6,000 automated tests over 2.5 years of development. Key aspects included packaging full releases, automating dependency installation, specifying supported environments, and automating data migrations during upgrades. The goal was to have a sustainable process that allowed for continuous development without slowing down due to maintenance issues.

WP-CLI is a command line interface for managing WordPress installations. It allows users to perform tasks like installing plugins and themes, updating WordPress core, managing users, and more through commands instead of using the WordPress dashboard. The tool saves time by automating repetitive tasks and allowing bulk operations. Developers can extend WP-CLI's functionality by creating their own commands and packages.
These slides are from my WordCamp Chicago presentation about creating a solid backup strategy to implement on your self-hosted WordPress site.
This document contains notes from a SQL Server 2008 for Developers course taught by Peter Gfader. The course covered topics such as high availability, online index operations, mirrored backups, and SQL CLR integration. SQL CLR integration allows writing database queries using .NET code. It provides benefits like complex calculations, custom types and aggregates, and leveraging .NET debugging. However, T-SQL is better suited for core data operations. The document provides examples of stored procedures, functions, triggers and other SQL CLR code.
The document discusses optimizing Perl code for easy maintenance. It suggests limiting the programming vocabulary to simpler and more common constructs to make the code easier to read, understand and debug. Specifically, it recommends always using strict and warnings, formatting code consistently with Perltidy, writing code for future readers rather than just oneself, following common conventions when possible, and avoiding obscure, complex or magical language features. It provides examples of features that should generally be avoided, such as formats, punctuation variables and indirect object syntax, to optimize Perl code for long-term maintainability.

Things I have learned over the years through experience of having to deliver code rapidly, with few defects and maximum functionality. I cover basic coding techniques, automated testing and sometimes I have enough time to review tools and code generation!
The document discusses techniques for optimizing websites to load faster. It provides 12 tips for optimization including enabling GZIP compression, minifying JavaScript and CSS, optimizing image sizes and formats, reducing the number of requests, and combining files. Performance statistics are given showing how even small reductions in load times can significantly increase user engagement and sales.

Slides from my speech about web apps performance. Images, CSS, JS optimization. PHP and HTTP server effects + caching. Performance profiling with Blackfire.io, debugging with Xdebug.
This document provides best practices for WordPress applications, covering topics like caching, database reads/writes, search queries, maintainability, security, third-party code, teams, and workflows. It recommends tools and techniques to optimize performance, including using Redis for caching, Elasticsearch for complex queries, feature plugins, documentation, testing, linting, and managing dependencies with Composer.
This presentation is about implementing the performance as first approach in web development and a bit of real case study. Then implement the Lighthouse-CI in the development workflow to keep the site performance high.
