Thanks guys, followed this and my sites working faster than usual

 

Expired headers, no idea how to manually do this in the htaccess file

## EXPIRES CACHING ##
<IfModule mod_expires.c>
ExpiresActive On
ExpiresByType image/jpg "access plus 1 year"
ExpiresByType image/jpeg "access plus 1 year"
ExpiresByType image/gif "access plus 1 year"
ExpiresByType image/png "access plus 1 year"
ExpiresByType text/css "access plus 1 month"
ExpiresByType application/pdf "access plus 1 month"
ExpiresByType text/x-javascript "access plus 1 month"
ExpiresByType application/x-shockwave-flash "access plus 1 month"
ExpiresByType image/x-icon "access plus 1 year"
ExpiresDefault "access plus 2 days"
</IfModule>
## EXPIRES CACHING ##

 

Add this to your htaccess for example. You can also find a free example htaccess file here in the marketplace. I can't find the link right now.

It is easy, you need to install a php module and add some lines to .htaccess.  Unless someone else does I will give the information about it later ( Since I dont have access to it ). Besides I will give detailed information how I have made the latest setup that I am able to make the site faster than it was before.

Oops, did not realise @inkredible had already posted the solution Thanks

I've got this

Should I be using mod_mpm_worker instead?

It is said that prefork is the default for Apache 2.4. It changes on your config which you should choose. I am running prefork and others run event and may be others run worker.

The difference can be found in following link. Not very clear to understand though if you are not an expert ( not for me either )

Prefork is the best option if you run php on DSO.

If you are running php-fpm, I read that event would be the best.

But you will have to test on your environment.

For cpanel servers phpfpm using event is the best option :-)

Yeah maybe we can actually find a group of WHM/Cpanel + IPS users. I think most of us have the same requirements (aka just a few, big and selfowned sites hosted with CPanel) which might be helpful sometimes (for example when it comes to optimizations for the servers).

When 4.2 is released we should definitely have a cPanel Users Club

I have finally gotten mine set up to a speed that I think is acceptable. What really put it over the top was putting in HTTP2.  That alone made such a huge difference.

Are you using it on EA4?

TLS 1.3 coming to my setup in a few days :-)

What about CPANEL support of it?

I think he is, it's in pre release at the moment. Some people reported bugs though, so be careful when trying http2 :-).

Interessting, do you have numbers? I know it's especially helpful for pages with a lot of requests (for example pages who don't use sprites for icons and similiar)

I'm using it with EA4 but not through EA4 using the Cloud Linux experimental repository .   Get that installed, drop a conf file in your apache, and restart. It's one of those things that, for me at least, just runs.  According to WebpageSpeedTest it cut my page load times in half (my article pages are very heavy)

That is what I have opted after opcache issue. In this setup is it normal to have nobody to be owner of  httpd processes ?
