[php] faster loading pages?

[r4myy]

Firstly do not use flush()

Took that off now

at the top of your site make sure your starting you output_buffer with gzip compression

Take a look at this caching function without gZip.. before printing contents you can use the ZLIB functions like gzcompress http://uk.php.net/manual/en/function.gzcompress.php

I have

ob_start("ob_gzhandler"); 

on the top of the page

Secondly! What system are you actually using, your own or pre made.

My own

Design:
Compress your external files like css / js into one file!, so if you have style.css,reset.css put the rest at the top of style and just load the style.css..

Same with javascript.

Done

Reduce the amount of images you have on your page, thats not css images im talking about <img src.../>

These are just some things you can do, theres more advanced methods such as CatchControlling and so on but the about will get you a little faster

So is it faster if i use backgrounds in css instead of <img


I just updated the mysql queries too.. i think there were lots of unnecessary things in there (i think thats where most of the loading was)

Thanks a lot for the help

Private Mesage me or Litewarez the site if you want and I'll let you know more. If you use FireFox you can use an addon called firebug. That will tell you all the files that are used to load a page and all the server request. It also tells you the time takes to download each file and their size. This gives a great indication of what causing the problem on your site as it's show in graph form. example from google below:

http://www.warezat.net/movies/ - new

any diff?

You've a shit load of adverts and their's an error in one of the advert codes that's killing your site. Your site has 101 requests. A typical site should have 10 - 30 which your site has but you've about 60 advert requests. Try removing the adverts as they seam to be causing issues. A lot of them are even failing to load as show below.



Compare the above to the top half of the list which is your site and you'll see their clearly taking longer to load.

Excellent. On my computer you've just cut the load time by 60% and took 11 seconds off the load time. The site is now 40% smaller as well code wise. I'd have a look at adding different adverts if you really need them. The ones you had clearly didn't work right and were causing major problems.

Great, thanks a lot

I just put up those ads recently and i noticed that google wasnt crawling my pages as much lately, do you think this is why?

Hard to say exactly but yes it definitely would have had an influence. Google will definitely prefer your site now. Glad it's all worked out now.

I hope this is a lesson to other as well not to jump to conclusions and go straight to blaming your host for issues such as a slow site when you don't know the cause of the problem.
