1. Check your website current speed
You can do it by simply using Google tools: https://developers.google.com/speed/pagespeed/insights
On this tutorial, we are speeding up www.biuro-brzezina.pl. The test indicated the speed of 70 for mobile devices and 80 for a desktop.
2. Tune the Nginx
Copy and paste those couple of lines:
location ~* \.(jpg|jpeg|png|gif|ico|css|js)$ {
expires 365d;
}365d might be too long, remember that user needs to be able to see some new graphics;) Now save it (ctrl+o), test it (
service nginx restart
3. Run speed test again
Come back to point 1:) In this particular case speed bumper on mobile to 74 and on the desktop to 82. IN some cases, like if you are using web applications(like Odoo) it will go much better but don't expect miracles. This is just one step to make your website 100/100. If you couldn't see the images after the process you might want to add "root /var/blablabla" before "expires 365".
Speeding up Odoo
If you are using Odoo...
This blog is mainly about Odoo(for now). If you used the code from above in your Nginx for Odoo you must have realised that styling got messed up. In that case, you should simply use(Source: https://www.odoo.com/documentation/11.0/setup/deploy.html):
# common gzip gzip_types text/css text/less text/plain text/xml application/xml application/json application/javascript; gzip on;
