Magento Cart Optimization
We are putting together a Magento store and have a couple of extensions installed, including Fooman Speedster to cache various files. The pages themselves do not load too slowly, however the “add to cart” function is very slow and we would like to speed this up. The server has 1GB RAM and a dual core processor, so not sure if it is the MySQL. However I don’t have root access to it unfortunately. I would like to look at working on what can be done, and also, if it will make a difference, maybe looking at a different server. We would like to keep the store upgradeable and therefore to use Magento’s ability to make changes in the local area, rather than the core.
