Drupal Performance Optimization

Is your Drupal content management system slow? How do you optimize your Drupal performance?

The initial installation of a Drupal content management system on your site may be slow. However, we can speed up with Drupal performing tuning, one of the most popular and commonly used CMS, with a few essential adjustments. At OSSCube, we do Drupal Performance Optimization at three different levels;

1. Configuring the web server

Drupal is written using PHP and installed by using a MySQL database and an Apache web server. Drupal gets converted to an executable program for every new web page using a PHP engine. Likewise Drupal uses MySQL database to store the entire site content. OSSCube has the capability to decrease the load time and speed up your website to a large extent by;

• Enabling PHP accelerator script caching by saving and re-using converted scripts
• Enabling MYSQL query caching by saving and re-using the results of common queries

2. Configuring Drupal

• Our Drupal CMS has several in- built performance features that can further reduce page load times and speed up your site by Enabling Drupal’s page caching to save and re-use pre-built pages
• Enabling Drupal’s CSS file aggregation to combine different files into one and remove the extra white spaces and comments
• Enabling block caching by replacing slow blocks with cached versions that are quicker to assemble

3. Configure your theme and page layout

Drupal performance tuning and CMS at OSSCube has a theming system that allows you to download and install variety of themes and create your own fancy looks and feel. Here, Drupal performance optimization is enabled by;

• Using a simpler theme with fewer files to download on every page
• Avoiding slow blocks in your book network by simply using very few blocks
