The "Fast Cache PRO - Increase Performance + Scalability" module allows your website users to open pages much faster. Because few buyers want to spend a lot of time choosing a product. And slow page loading is one of the reasons why users leave the site without making a purchase.
Therefore, it is important to reduce the waiting time that your client spends.
A large assortment of products on your website (hundreds of thousands), as well as a large number of users who request pages at the same time, can slow down the work of an online store.
If the load on the server for processing user requests increases, the website may not only slow down very much but also crash.
How does it work?
When a user opens a website page, this page should be generated. After that, it is displayed to the user. Any page is created like this every time someone opens it.
If you are using the module, server-side page caching is applied. This means that after the page is generated upon opening, this page is saved for some time. And the next time it is opened, it is retrieved from the cache and displayed to the user. This operation is much faster than re-generation.
Besides reducing page load time, the module allows you to improve the performance of your website and speed up operations.
That is, in addition to caching for website pages and browser, the module performs:
- the optimization of js files and css styles, including the use of the Critical CSS service (see the terms of use for the service at https://criticalcss.top),
- the compression / conversion of images with the Squeezeimg Image Optimizer (see the terms of use for the service at https://squeezeimg.com),
- optimization of the database and models.
