This tutorial will show you how to improve the page load times of your
website by using the Google mod_pagespeed module for Apache in
conjunction with the fast in-memory cache Memcached on Ubuntu 16.04
(Xenial Xerus). The page load time is an important factor to get good
rankings in search engines, you can test the current load time e.g. with
the Google PageSpeed Insights tool
or with the developer tools in the Firefox web browser. Pagespeed is
an Apache 2 module that optimizes and caches the content of a website
before it gets delivered to the browser, the result is that the page
loads, the system load on your server decreases and the server will be
able to deliver more pages per second. Mod_pagespeed uses a filesystem
cache by default, in this tutorial, we will replace the filesystem cache
with Memcached, a fast in-memory caching daemon which will further
improve the load time. This tutorial is compatible with all kind of
apache setups, I will use a Ubuntu LAMP server as basis but you may also use on of the ISPConfig 3 Perfect Server tutorials.
How to find out if you need the 32bit or 64Bit package? Run the command:
When the command contains the string "x86_64" then your system runs a
64Bit Linux kernel. In this case, use the commands provided below for
64Bit Ubuntu.
Ubuntu 64 bit (Default for most current servers)
Ubuntu 32 bit
Then restart Apache 2 to load the mod_pagespeed configuration.
The Port is shown right after the word localhost. In this case, the port is 11211 which is the default port of Memcachedd. We need to know that port number for the mod_pagespeed configuration.
If you like to use Memcache from your PHP based applications and not just for mod_pagespeed, then install the PHP Memcached extension:
If you have plenty of memory in your server, then you can get a further speedup by removing the # in front of this line:
Now mod_pagespeed will use Memcached as storage backend. You can get usage statistics from Memcached with the nc command:

Now test the speed of your website again, e.g. with PageSpeed
Insights. When your website has not much traffic yet then it might be
that you have to reload the web page a few times to fill the caches
before you get proper results.
Existen 2 soluciones:
Installation of mod_pagespeed
Google provides mod_pagespeed .deb packages for 32 and 64-bit Ubuntu installations.How to find out if you need the 32bit or 64Bit package? Run the command:
uname -a
Ubuntu 64 bit (Default for most current servers)
cd /tmp
wget https://dl-ssl.google.com/dl/linux/direct/mod-pagespeed-stable_current_amd64.deb
dpkg -i mod-pagespeed-stable_current_amd64.deb
wget https://dl-ssl.google.com/dl/linux/direct/mod-pagespeed-stable_current_amd64.deb
dpkg -i mod-pagespeed-stable_current_amd64.deb
cd /tmp
wget https://dl-ssl.google.com/dl/linux/direct/mod-pagespeed-stable_current_i386.deb
wget https://dl-ssl.google.com/dl/linux/direct/mod-pagespeed-stable_current_i386.deb
dpkg -i mod-pagespeed-stable_current_i386.deb
Then restart Apache 2 to load the mod_pagespeed configuration.
service apache2 restart
Installation of Memcached
The Memcached daemon is available in the Ubuntu repositories as .deb package and can be installed with apt:
apt-get -y install memcached
Run the command "netstat -tap | grep memcached" to see if Memcached is started:
netstat -tap | grep memcached
The result of the netstat command shall look like this:tcp 0 0 localhost.localdo:11211 *:* LISTEN 3269/memcached |
The Port is shown right after the word localhost. In this case, the port is 11211 which is the default port of Memcachedd. We need to know that port number for the mod_pagespeed configuration.
If you like to use Memcache from your PHP based applications and not just for mod_pagespeed, then install the PHP Memcached extension:
apt-get -y install php-memcached
Configure mod_pagespeed to use Memcached
Open the pagespeed.conf file in an editor, I will use the nano editor here:
nano /etc/apache2/mods-available/pagespeed.conf
and search for the line "ModPagespeedMemcachedServers":
[....]
# ModPagespeedMemcachedServers localhost:11211
[....]
Remove the # in front of the line so that the resulting line looks like the one below:# ModPagespeedMemcachedServers localhost:11211
[....]
[....]
ModPagespeedMemcachedServers localhost:11211
[....]
ModPagespeedMemcachedServers localhost:11211
[....]
[....]
ModPagespeedCreateSharedMemoryMetadataCache "/var/cache/mod_pagespeed/" 51200
[....]
Then restart the Apache 2 server to activate the new configuration.ModPagespeedCreateSharedMemoryMetadataCache "/var/cache/mod_pagespeed/" 51200
[....]
service apache2 restart
echo stats | nc 127.0.0.1 11211

Mod_pageSpeed y WordPress
Existe un pequeño problema con el WYSIWYG del administrador de WordPress y es que al concatenar y comprimir ciertos Javascripts del admin, el editor visual deja de funcionar.Existen 2 soluciones:
- O bien configurar el WordPress para que no concatene los scripts, lo cual hay que hacerlo en cada Wordpress que exista en tu servidor.
define('CONCATENATE_SCRIPTS', false );
- O bien tu tu configuración de Mod_pagespeed configuras 2 nuevos filtros:
ModPagespeedDisallow */wp-admin/* ModPagespeedDisallow */wp-includes/*
