Performance tips for Pimcore 10.5

Adjust Pimcore settings

First make some changes to the Pimcore settings.

Adjust Environments

APP_ENV=prod
APP_DEBUG=0
PIMCORE_DEV_MODE=0
DEV_REDIS_SOCK="/var/run/redis/$PORT.sock" #6379,6380 ++

Restrict locales

Add the following code block under config/packages/translation.yaml:

framework:
    enabled_locales: ['en', 'es', 'de']

Customise Service Container Dump

Place the service container dump in a single file by adding the following code block to config/services.yaml:

parameters:
    container.dumper.inline_factories: true

Adjust PHP settings

You can also make some adjustments under PHP to improve the performance of your Pimcore instance.

Activate OPCache and JIT

opcache.enable=1
opcache.enable_cli=1
opcache.jit_buffer_size=256M

opcache.memory_consumption=256
opcache.max_accelerated_files=20000

Set up realpath cache

; maximum memory allocated to store the results
realpath_cache_size=4096K

; save the results for 10 minutes (600 seconds)
realpath_cache_ttl=600

Set up OPCache Preloading

As a web user, execute the following command:

opcache.preload_user=web-user
opcache.preload=/var/www/share/$HOST/$PROJEKT/var/cache/prod/App_KernelProdContainer.preload.php

Alternatively, as a dev user, you can execute the following command:

opcache.preload=/var/www/share/$HOST/$PROJEKT/var/cache/dev/App_KernelDevDebugContainer.preload.php

Set up Redis caching

Create a cache pool

First create a cache pool that can then be used as an object cache and full page cache. To do this, add the following code block under config/packages/$ENV/cache.yaml:

framework:
    cache:
        pools:
            pimcore.cache.pool:
                public: true
                tags: true
                default_lifetime: 31536000  # 1 year
                adapter: pimcore.cache.adapter.redis_tag_aware
                provider: 'redis:%env(DEV_REDIS_SOCK)%'

Set up full-page caching

To use Redis as a full-page cache, now add the following code block under config/packages/$ENV/fpc.yaml:

pimcore:
    full_page_cache:
        enabled: true
        lifetime: 120
        exclude_cookie: 'pimcore_admin_sid'
        exclude_patterns: '@^/test/de@'
