You have done all the caching tricks in the book on the server side: memcache, apc, database cache and so on and squeezed every millisecond out of it, now your site is as fast as it will ever get. Well guess again ! Too often people forget that what you are effectively caching and creating with those technologies is the HTML part of the user response time, now if they are done correctly then HTML is 10 - 20% of your users response time, so there is room for a whole lot of improvements on those other 80 - 90%. You will be taken through a couple of important steps to achieve this, such as how to optimize your JavaScript, CSS, Images, Cookies and a whole sleeve of other things that make frontend caching the magical place that it is. After having attended this talk you will not only have learned to make your sites faster for your long term users but also people coming for the first time as well as people on slower connections.

Speeding up a WordPress site involves optimizing images, using a content delivery network (CDN) to improve load times, selecting fast hosting, and implementing caching. Page speed is important for user experience and retention - users leave sites that take over 4 seconds to load. Optimizing images reduces file sizes while maintaining quality. A CDN stores content on globally distributed servers to deliver pages faster. Caching saves page content for quick retrieval to improve load times.

Client Side Optimization can give websites a snappier interface and by reducing bandwidth save money. Presentation given at RailsWayCon 2010

The document discusses optimizing WordPress performance. It recommends minimizing frontend assets like images, implementing caching for assets and application chunks, optimizing themes and plugins, and choosing efficient server setups. Specific plugins like W3 Total Cache and a CDN can improve performance by up to 10 times by caching static content. Nginx is presented as a faster alternative to Apache. Overall, the key takeaways are to simplify code, minimize requests, optimize caching, and reduce payload sizes to improve perceived and actual performance.

This document discusses best practices for building scalable PHP websites, as demonstrated by ZingMe's architecture. It describes how ZingMe uses a scale-out approach with load balancing, centralized session storage, and an automated code deployment system. The key aspects covered are load balancing with HAProxy, overriding PHP's session handling to use Memcached, and configuring servers identically through version control and scripts. The goal is to gracefully handle increasing traffic by adding commodity servers within 5 minutes while maintaining a consistent environment.

This document discusses optimizing PHP and web server performance. It covers using opcode caches like APC to improve PHP performance.
