Time to First Byte #701

Closed Alecostantini closed 9 years ago

Alecostantini commented 9 years ago

I do not know if it's parameter or characteristic of the module itself.

With the module varnish by Phoenix I get a faster First Byte Load 3x than with turpentine, despite the turpentine a much more complete module.

Ps: The tests were conducted using the same components in the server, changing only the module and the VCL default file for each module.

Would any setting that could be done to improve the First Byte Load using Turpentine module?

Thank you.

you did something wrong, speed must be the same. Phoenix module is a bit dumb, it caches everything. in Turpentine you need to have some knowledge and know what your are doing.

compare headers

Hello, i found the problem.

I put in my page.xml in the mytopcart and toplinks blocks this flag:

This caused the varnish did not realize the cache of any block in the whole page.

But now I have another problem. I'll close this topic and open another.

Thanks.
