Does anyone has ideas on how to improve the loading rate of this module? As it is really slow whenever i refreshed with CTRL + F5 and that was what client complained of. Viewers who have ideas might give me suggestions. Thanks.

Hi,
1) Use cache for module and gzip for Joomla
2) Reduce image size

..and after that add URL here..we will see want next to do.

You have to modify php/js files from module, sorry I'm not a programmer to help you with this.

p.s.
Maybe try to implement a Caching Scheme with .htaccess


Code: Select all
<FilesMatch “.(flv|gif|jpg|jpeg|png|ico|swf|js|css|pdf)$”>
Header set Cache-Control “max-age=2592000″
</FilesMatch>


This code snippet will set your site up with .htaccess file caching.

# 1 YEAR

Code: Select all
<FilesMatch “\.(ico|pdf|flv)$”>

Header set Cache-Control “max-age=29030400, public”

</FilesMatch>


# 1 WEEK
Code: Select all
<FilesMatch “\.(jpg|jpeg|png|gif|swf)$”>

Header set Cache-Control “max-age=604800, public”

</FilesMatch>


# 2 DAYS
Code: Select all
<FilesMatch “\.(xml|txt|css|js)$”>

Header set Cache-Control “max-age=172800, proxy-revalidate”

</FilesMatch>


# 1 MIN

Code: Select all
<FilesMatch “\.(html|htm|php)$”>

Header set Cache-Control “max-age=60, private, proxy-revalidate”

</FilesMatch>

The Problem here is...

1) Image Show development was never taken care off... even though it is most used Module (I guess), All I hear about NEWS Pro.. I know Image Show is nearly perfect but its not perfect.

2)I am using Images(3) which are 100kb each but Image show takes 4-5 to initialize and the entire site loads in 2 seconds

3) Can I get advice for cache Settings just for Image Show Module?

All modules have cache settings - more added minutes means better.

You can always cache all images uses .htaccess rules.

Check here: http://www.askapache.com/htaccess/speed ... ching.html

But before you will use it - ask your hosting provider - what "rule" is available & recommended.
