Bravo , votre site est super ! Félicitation pour votre travail.
@VisualFrames :
Magento est très prometteur, si vous voulez vous implanter rapidement sur le marché Français et même européen la première chose à faire est d’adapter le système de taxe aux particularités que l’on a : http://www.magentocommerce.com/boards/viewthread/4791/ . Je sais que vous êtes sur ce problème mais plus le temps passe et plus les entreprises risquent de choisir une autre solution (je parle des petites structures qui n’ont pas les moyens humains à mettre en place pour résoudre ce problème). En tout cas bravo pour votre travail !
Pour les anglophones :
Nice , your website is great ! Congratulation for your work.

Nice Site! Can you please tell us any modications you have done to speed up the site?
I would love to see your modifications so that we can apply them to our site, which is slow.
- the server is hosted at OVH on a (now “old") Start 100M large+ : dual 2.00GHz + 1GB of ram. We plan to migrate to one of the new OVH products, they now more ram for the same price.
- the OS is linux fedora 6
- we installed PHP 5.2, apache 2, and mysql 5, and APC 3 (bytecode cache)
- we increased the mysql max_connections to 200 (see this great post), no really special or weird tuning was done (until now) !
- the tabs for products are not included in the base magento release, but many tab scripts/css are available around the web
- the link on the whole header is made using a simple [removed]
<div class="header-top-container" onClick="[removed]window.open(’http://www.theclimbingshop.com/shop/’,’_self’);">
- the blocks, links and whatever can be moved easily, but not yet on using wysiwyg unfortunately. You need to identify the templates and layouts files (.phtml and .xml) and adapt the css to change the look of the elements.
- we managed to adapt the tax system for the french market (prices including VAT, sell in France + CEE with VAT, outside CEE without VAT) by configuring admin/system_config/edit/section/sales/. Tax is based on origin in order to get the VAT included in the price on the shop, but then we had to modify some files to get tax based on destination. The 2 modules we made are joined, provided “as is” ! Don’t hesitate to post your questions if any.
- we didn’t migrate to 1.0.19700 yet, we’ll wait the next (patch of the next) big release
thanks a lot man… i am really confused atm cause i’m running magento with the same settings on better hardware with OpenSuse 10.3/ php5.2.5 and Xcache and can’t nearly reach this performance
