Modules Are Painfully Slow To Load

1. offizieller Beitrag

    Joomla 3.10.4
    PHP 8.0
    JoomGallery 3.5.1

    I just moved to a new server with plenty of ram. I've got "Use Real Paths" set to "No" so I can protect the images and have a hit counter but the site is very slow. I have determined the issue is with the JoomImages and JoomCategories modules. The more images that are displayed in these modules, the slower the site becomes. Even with a minimal number of images (1.5 MB), the site is still too slow with load times between 10-15 seconds.

    Has anyone else experienced this?

    Any suggestions on how to speed things up while keeping all of the functionality?

    A CDN does not help enough. Caching does not appear to do anything.

    I've been using this extension for a bunch of years and I think it's always been this slow. I'm just finally trying to improve my seo and fix any issues and I can't get past this.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Hi,

    Speed optimization is sometimes not a simple matter and depends on many factors.

    Here are a few general tips:

    - load as few images as possible in the modules

    - do not use dynamic cropping of images if possible

    - use the small thumbnails instead of detailed images
