Issue Best server setting for a fast wordpress website

[fd_paz]

Hi,
I often see websites created with Wordpress that are super fast, but unfortunately my websites are often very slow.
My configurations often require the installation of various plugins.
I tried different methods, but without success. I also tried to set Ram to 2gb, but without success.
I use Plesk 17.8.11 with php 7.2.15, nginx and I also installed memcached.

I would like to know how to configure the server part (with what values) to have a website that comes up very fast?

Thank yuo in advance

there are a lot of possible reasons for this and you might start with this knowledgebase entry Site works slowly. What can be checked?

effective cache, solid framework, optimize images, cdn, etc.

not really a one for all here. it's open to experimentation.

Hi,
I have activated http 2.0 and also gzip in nginx and I have speeded up quite a bit, but there are still some things that I can not.
Attached I send a screenshot of the nginx setting of the domain. Could this setting still be improved?
Then there are some things I can't solve. I have activated gzip, but it asks me to activate the components...
thank you

If you do not want to deal with for a long time nginx fine-tuning, just buy the Speed Kit extension and get a fast site - Another way to make sites load faster - Plesk Speed Kit extension
My articles also can be useful - My Plesk User Experience (1): Easy Starts and Common Issues - Plesk and My Plesk User Experience (2): Lessons learned from testing Plesk Onyx

Why not implement this in the core system? It actually should be standard. It would improve your product dramatically. Surely one should be able to expect proper speed as a basic characteristic.

Install Cache Enabler on any WordPress istance and you're done. It's faster than memcached (a Linux utility you need to configure). Tonight I've tried memcached vs Cache Enabler and Varnish fine tuned vs Cache Enabler. No story, Cache Enabler is faster with less configuration effort.
