Hi Guys,
I've searched high and low for answers on Google, forums and other sources. A few months ago a client rang me and said that his wordpress site is slow on first load.
So I started to look into it and ran several tests and can see his reason. About two weeks later he rang me again with the same issues so, I asked on the wordpress forums and someone said to install super cache. So I installed the plugin and noticed a slight in decrease in time for his site to load however, it wasn't good enough.
Over the last 2 months we had swapped over to a new network and changed from vmware to KVM and upgraded the software, OS, Ram, cpu cores etc... however, we are experiencing the same TTFB issue. So I temporary increased the resources and this made hardly any difference in the load times. We also changed to SSD hard drives too.
Our monitoring charts are saying that the server resources are more than what we actually need.
We have other non wordpress sites on the system and they are extremely quick to load. So we know that it's not the network, nor the equipment.
Some posts read are saying it's how apache is configured others saying it's the network and/or the equipment but we have tried different things but we are not seeing this issue been resolved.
I'm using cpanel 11.6 + Cloudlinux + Centos 7 with 4 x 2.6Ghz CPU Cores and 10GB ram. We have tried doubling resources with no difference.
