Cloudfront also gives you http2 (no doubt others do also). I found this decreased my over all load times a lot. | |

| Mar 8, 2017 at 20:18 | comment | added | David Verholen | ah ok. Yes, having varnish enabled but no configured varnish server in place might lead to having no full page cache at all | |
| Mar 8, 2017 at 18:29 | comment | added | Sackling | Just me talking to myself, but the biggest problem was that I had varnish enabled in the full page cache options when I am on a shared server that could not have varnish enabled. Turning on the regular page cache brought down the ttfb to 300 ms. A bunch of other little changes too brought down full load to just under 3 seconds, so very happy with that. | |
| Mar 7, 2017 at 21:14 | comment | added | Sackling | Sorry to pile on, I'm not sure anyone will even read this lol but gtmetrix has been reporting the lack of gzip, so has google page insight. I know that it is enabled but it looks like certain files are not being gzipped for instance the minified JS is a big culprit. Is there anything that needs to be done to gzip the minified files? | |
| Mar 7, 2017 at 20:33 | comment | added | Sackling | Switching to 7.0 seems to have given a pretty nice jump in page load time. TTFB is still pretty high at 0.9 seconds on the low size and 1.5 on the high now but on a whole a big improvement so thank you for recommending that. The person I have a ticket with said I can switch but that it would not have a big effect, which I think was incorrect it had a pretty large effect. He said that Magento 2 is still in a state of development and that we would basically have to live with the long ttfb until things improve in that regard. | |
| Mar 7, 2017 at 19:03 | comment | added | Sackling | I will ask about 7.0, I can actually make the change myself from the nexcess admin panel but will confirm with them first. My initial request was for them to enable gzip which they did. I have varnish cache enabled in admin with TTL at 86400. Css and JSS minified and combined. | |
| Mar 7, 2017 at 18:52 | comment | added | David Verholen | yes, magento2 supports php 7.0.x (not 7.1.x yet) and it gives a really huge performance boost for php. Still, when a page is cached, it should be faster. Basically I would say, that nexcess knows what they are doing, but if they did not recommend you to switch to php7, they consulted you really bad. | |
| Mar 7, 2017 at 18:49 | comment | added | Sackling | Thanks for the reply David, Is PHP 7 stable with Magento 2? We are currently on 5.6.30. I switched to product mode and am still getting a 2-3 second ttfb. Our host is Nexcess and we are on the starting shared hosting plan SIP 100 which I believe is plenty powerful enough for such a basic setup. There are no custom extensions unless maybe the cart2cart import uses something I am unaware of. here is a link to my last test: gtmetrix.com/reports/gostwear.nextmp.net/vL5LSusz | |
