Cache hit ratio optimisation

    Hello,

    We’ve been using your plugin for some time now and it works really well for cached pages. I have more work to do to improve uncached performance, but I think we’re also suffering from pages frequently dropping out of CF cache, which exposes more users to the slower uncached pages.

    I saw another thread re Remove Cache Buster Query String, which should help with this, but as we’re a quite low-traffic site, is there anything I can do to make our pages ‘stickier’ in CF cache?

    Secondly, I’ve been playing around with LS Cache alongside Superpage Cache (while removing Autoptimize & Optimole) in a staging environment. Page caching should be disabled on LS, but performance actually improves with it enabled. Why would that be?

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    Hi @fizzers,
    First of all, I will highly recommend you read this article to understand how Cloudflare caching works. That being said, I will highly recommend you to enable the Smart Tiered Cache inside your Cloudflare Dashboard > Caching > Tiered Cache section. It will greatly improve your cache HIT ratio.

    Finally coming to using LS Cache, it is very hard to say due to many variables. But in your test make sure that you are testing everything thoroughly before coming to any conclusion.

    Hey @isaumya, thanks for the response and sharing the informative article. We’ve had Tiered Cache enabled for some time already. Is there a ballpark ‘good’ cache HIT ratio from your experience?

    Is your advice still not to use Rocket Loader, if so, what’s the best way to replicate that functionality (without Perfmatters)?

    Hi @fizzers,

    This is really hard to explain as it depends on many variables and website type/content. So, if you are getting good cache HIT ratio, then you should be good.

    Is your advice still not to use Rocket Loader, if so, what’s the best way to replicate that functionality (without Perfmatters)?

    Yah, I personally don’t use rocket loader. You can implement the same feature that Perfmatter is offer by writing your own codes, but trust me investing in Perfmatters is really a good investment. You should do it.
