Hi

I have installed the new release (my first eZ install) and am most unhappy with the super slow performance speed ...

A few notes:

I run my eZ copy on a semi-dedicated server environment.
I do not have access to the php.ini file.
I do not have shell access.
My server has the latest versions of PHP (PHP5) and MySQL installed (CGI Mode)
My server also has the last PHP4 version installed (as a Module) but that will not be supported for very long.

Hardware stuff:

Pentium 4 CPU at 1.7 GHz
1024 MB RAM
40 GB Space
250 GB Bandwidth
Semi Dedicated Server

My question is, how can I speed up the performance for Exponential?

I have been using typo3 for a long time now and there you have the MMTurck Cache Extension (Module) which you can install to speed up the performance of your page which works wonders.

I am bringing up Typo3 because, very much like Exponential, the system is HUGE and takes up quite a large portion of resources as well which can slow down the entire system.

Any tipps are greatly appreciated :)

Thanks

Maleika

This looks like cache problem. Did you set right permission to var folder. You can also turn on DebugOutput in settings/override/site.ini.appnd.php

[DebugSettings]
DebugOutput=enabled

You can use turckcache with every PHP based system. Exponential benefits greatly from it (I'd even say it's not really usable without).

Thank you a ton for the recommendations.

I do have another question though and I hope this is not too idiotic a question.

How can I get a php accelerator to work with eZ? Is this configurable within eZ or do I need to manually install the accelerator on my server? I do not have access to the php ini file. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

PS: is there an accelerator for php that you'd recommend over mmturckcache for Exponential??

Thank you in advance,

Maleika

Okay, sorry for that question. I realise this can only be done by my webhost.
