Here is my latest results for my site, pretty frigging good for vB4, http://www.webpagetest.org/result/140309_D0_RWZ/

Now if only vb.org did some of the changes :)

Yeah it could use some tweaking, but it is vB3, so it loads quickly.

They have some images that need to be optimized, and some they really can't control because they are avatars.

But when we test their home page, we see result without avatars and the images they need to optimize are listed: http://www.webpagetest.org/result/14...ompress_images

But it only winds up being a savings of 4.8kb, hardly seems worth the effort just to get a A grade on that..

However they're not caching static assets very well.
HTML Code:
Leverage browser caching of static assets: 3/100

And that's a very easy .htaccess fix.

But with only 90 total KB loaded and only 34 requests, it's not nearly as bad as the grades might seem to make it look.

It's about 15 minutes work to fix everything here and get straight A grades.

final kaoss 03-10-2014 11:54 AM
It wouldn't even take 15 minutes to apply the caching. Maybe 1-3 at most depending on who's modifying it :) but yeah that is one of the big issues is not having their static elements being cached.

I noticed a couple issues at the bottom of the last two sections in the suggested .htaccess file:

Code:
# proc/self/environ? no way!
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} proc/self/environ [OR]
# Block out any script trying to set a mosConfig value through the URL
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} mosConfig_[a-zA-Z_]{1,21}(=|\%3D) [OR]
# Block out any script trying to base64_encode crap to send via URL
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} base64_encode.*(.*) [OR]
# Block out any script that includes a <script> tag in URL
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} (<|%3C).*script.*(>|%3E) [NC,OR]
# Block out any script trying to set a PHP GLOBALS variable via URL
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} GLOBALS(=|[|\%[0-9A-Z]{0,2}) [OR]
# Block out any script trying to modify a _REQUEST variable via URL
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} _REQUEST(=|[|\%[0-9A-Z]{0,2})

The problem with this is you have all these rewrite conditions then at the end you don't have a rewrite rule. You need to add something like this:

Code:
# Send all blocked requests to homepage with 403 Forbidden error!
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php [F,L]
In the two spots where I placed *** ADD RULE HERE*** in the code block above.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

...also suggest a slight change to this line:
Code:
# Block out any script trying to base64_encode crap to send via URL
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} base64_encode.*(.*) [OR]
to this:
Code:
# Block out any script trying to base64_encode or base64_decode data via URL
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} base64_(en|de)code[^(]*\([^)]*\) [OR]

PM me a copy and I'll look at it.

remember, you really have no reason to use mod_deflate if your server is already set to use gzip.

final kaoss 03-31-2014 08:27 PM
You'll be just fine using mod_deflate. Just turn off vbulletin's gzip function otherwise, you'll be increasing load for no reason plus I don't believe vbulletins gzip feature covers everything.

Quote:
The mod_deflate module is similar to mod_gzip, but usable only with Apache v2. Early versions of mod_deflate provided lesser amount of compression than mod_gzip.[2] Starting with Apache 2.0.45, the compression level of mod_deflate is configurable using the DeflateCompressionLevel directive, so this difference disappeared.
A mod_gz module was independently developed by Ian Holsman. This module implements a gzip compression filter for Apache 2.0, providing similar functionality to mod_gzip. One important difference between the two modules is that mod_gzip includes its own gzip implementation, whereas mod_gz relies on an external zlib library.
