We are very proud to announce our very first extension. We actually are a managed hosting company in Europe that already manage 600+ Ecommerce sites. We mainly work with Magento and we decided to put all our know-how in optimization in our new extension : Nitrogento.
It seriously boost the websites performances through a lot of dedicated optimizations :
Here are the features list :
• Full Page Cache (for CE & PE)
• Sprite generation and auto theme patch
• Auto déploiement of CDN and patch of theme
• Block caching (of not already included blocks)
• Custom bloc caching (of your own blocks)
• Htaccess tweaking (Etags, expire headers & gzip)
• HTML/CSS/JS minifying & compress
• Damn simple installation and direct controle from Back office
Results are impressive, just judge by yourself on the extension site (running Magento & Nitrogento) : http://www.nitrogento.com.
Based on our benchmarks, a category listing professionnal edition get down to 112ms instead of 8 seconds (yes seconds) while activating the full page cache mechanism.
The extension save us about 8 hours of work on each projet doing simple things we were configuring by hand (css/js combine & minify, sprites, htaccess expire headers, etc.)
Well one thing I don’t like about Magento was it’s speed or lack of there of. I was a magento enthusiast but left it for other ecommerce platatform that it’s lighter.
This extension gives me hope....maybe one day I’ll comeback.
The results you show are impressive but can I ask a few questions..
1, Does this module work with fooman speedster module? if not does the fooman module need to be switched off, does this module clash with any other modules that you know off?
2, does it work on all templates?
3, is the 499 euros a one of payment?
We be really considering using this one and the results are pretty amazing.
0,05 second to generate/load the home HTML
8 times less load on the Web server(s)
up to 6 times less HTTP requests (Sprite)
Load static resources 2 to 3 times faster with CDN support
Up to 97/93 in Pagespeed / Yslow (grade A / A in gtmetrx.com)
0,8 second to fully load the page on a demostore (instead of 2,5
It is made to boost Magento’s performances by allowing you to easily setup powerful optimizations
I lowered the number of http request from 75 to 22 using minify & sprite, very efficient ! The Full Page Cache also lowered the pressure on my server CPU.
