<h1>PageSpeed System Integration</h1>
<h2 id="caching">Configuring Caching</h2>
<p>
PageSpeed requires publicly cacheable resources to provide
maximum benefit. As discussed in the "Cache Extender" filter, the
origin TTL specified in the server configuration file dictates how
quickly changes made to the source can propagate to users' browser
caches. However, using PageSpeed, resources referenced statically
from HTML files will be served with a one-year cache lifetime, but
with a URL that is versioned using a content hash.
</p>
<h2 id="server_cache">Configuring Server-Side Cache for PageSpeed</h2>
<p>
In order to rewrite resources, PageSpeed must cache them server-side. A
file-system based cache is always employed on each
server. <a href="#memcached">memcached</a> or <a href="#redis">redis</a>
may be used as a scalable network-accessible cache in addition to the file
cache. The file cache is always required, since PageSpeed has a few
things it needs to store locally. Finally, a per-process in-memory LRU
cache and/or an interprocess shared-memory cache can be configured for
rapid access to small objects.
</p>
<h3 id="file_cache">Configuring the File Cache</h3>
<p>
PageSpeed must be configured with a path where it can write
cache files, tuned to limit the amount of disk space consumed.
The file cache can be placed on
a <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tmpfs">tmpfs</a>
partition or on a physical disk. The file cache has a built-in
LRU mechanism to remove old files, targeting a certain total
disk space usage, and a certain interval for the cleanup
process. An example configuration is:
</p>
<dl>
<dt>Apache:<dd><pre class="prettyprint">
ModPagespeedFileCachePath "/var/cache/pagespeed/"
ModPagespeedFileCacheSizeKb 102400
ModPagespeedFileCacheCleanIntervalMs 3600000
ModPagespeedFileCacheInodeLimit 500000</pre>
<dt>Nginx:<dd><pre class="prettyprint">
pagespeed FileCachePath "/var/cache/pagespeed/";
pagespeed FileCacheSizeKb 102400;
pagespeed FileCacheCleanIntervalMs 3600000;
pagespeed FileCacheInodeLimit 500000;</pre>
</dl>
<p>
It is important to note that <code>FileCacheSizeKb</code> and
<code>FileCacheInodeLimit</code> do not define absolute limits
on the cache size and inode count. The cache cleaning process will run at
the time interval defined by
<code>FileCacheCleanIntervalMs</code>, and will only initiate
cleaning if the cache size exceeds
<code>FileCacheSizeKb</code> or the cache inode count exceeds
<code>FileCacheInodeLimit</code>. When cache cleaning is
initiated, the oldest files in the cache will be removed until the cache
size is under <code>0.75 * FileCacheSizeKb</code> and the
inode count is under <code>0.75 * FileCacheInodeLimit</code>.
</p>
<p class="warning">
<b>Warning:</b> Because the file cache cleaner does not impose a tight
bound on disk usage, if your site is large and receives heavy traffic
PageSpeed's cache can expand to fill your entire disk. If this becomes a
problem you must either use a sufficiently large disk that this can't
happen, or a cache whose size is guaranteed to be bounded. Bounded caches
include keeping your file cache on a PageSpeed-specific
partition, <a href="#memcached">memcached</a>,
and <a href="#redis">redis</a>.
</p>
<p>
PageSpeed previously reserved another file-path for future use as a shared
database in a multi-server environment. This is no longer in the plan,
and <code>GeneratedFilePrefix</code> now generates a deprecation warning.
</p>
<p>
Starting in version 1.12.34.1, it is possible to disable cache cleaning
entirely, making PageSpeed ignore the limits set
by <code>FileCacheSizeKb</code> and <code>FileCacheInodeLimit</code>. To
do this, set <code>FileCacheCleanIntervalMs</code> to -1:
</p>
<dl>
<dt>Apache:<dd><pre class="prettyprint"
>ModPagespeedFileCacheCleanIntervalMs -1</pre>
<dt>Nginx:<dd><pre class="prettyprint"
>pagespeed FileCacheCleanIntervalMs -1;</pre>
</dl>
<p>
In versions before 1.12.34.1, using a large number for the interval, like
<code>1576800000000</code> (fifty years), has the same effect.
</p>
<p class="warning">
<b>Warning:</b> Without cleaning the cache will grow without bound as
PageSpeed continues to store additional resources. If you disable the
built-in cache cleaner you must implement something yourself to ensure
that PageSpeed does not consume all available disk space for its cache.
</p>
<h3 id="lru_cache">Configuring the in-memory LRU Cache</h3>
<p>
To optimize performance, a small in-memory write-through LRU cache can be
instantiated in each server process. Note that in Apache's pre-fork mode
this means dozens of processes, so the total memory consumed
(<code>LRUCacheKbPerProcess * num_processes</code>) must fit into the
capabilities of the host machine. Nginx typically runs with many fewer
processes, so a larger <code>LRUCacheKbPerProcess</code> is appropriate
there. The <code>LRUCacheByteLimit</code> is the limit on how large a
cache entry the LRU cache will accept. A sample configuration is:
</p>
<dl>
<dt>Apache:<dd><pre class="prettyprint">
ModPagespeedLRUCacheKbPerProcess 1024
ModPagespeedLRUCacheByteLimit 16384</pre>
<dt>Nginx:<dd><pre class="prettyprint">
pagespeed LRUCacheKbPerProcess 8192;
pagespeed LRUCacheByteLimit 16384;</pre>
</dl>
<h3 id="shm_cache">Configuring the Shared Memory Metadata Cache</h3>
<p>As part of its operation, PageSpeed stores summaries of how to apply
optimizations to web pages as part of a <em>metadata cache</em>. Metadata
entries are small and frequently accessed. They should ideally be stored in
local memory and shared across server processes, as opposed to on disk or
an <a href="#external_cache">external cache</a>. That is exactly what the
shared memory metadata cache does, and it is the best place to cache your
metadata entries.</p>
<p>Prior to 1.12.34.1, writes to an explicitly configured shared memory
metadata cache were in-memory only, and not written to disk. This provided a
large performance boost but the contents of the cache were lost upon server
restart.</p>
<p>As of 1.12.34.1, PageSpeed checkpoints the shared memory metadata cache
to disk, providing almost all the performance but without the cache being
wiped on restart. By default the metadata cache is checkpointed every 5
minutes, see <a href="#shm_checkpointing">shared memory checkpointing</a>
for more details.</p>
<p>In all versions, if you enable an <a href="#external_cache">external
cache</a>, cache entries are written through to it.</p>
<p>The shared memory metadata cache is enabled using
the <code>CreateSharedMemoryMetadataCache</code> directive. This directive
takes two arguments. The first is the exact string given as the argument
to <code>FileCachePath</code> in any virtual host where you want this cache
active. The second is the size of the cache in kilobytes. Unlike the LRU
cache, this cache is shared among all server processes, so far larger values
are possible. For example:
<dl>
<dt>Apache:<dd><pre class="prettyprint">
ModPagespeedCreateSharedMemoryMetadataCache "/var/cache/pagespeed/" 51200
&lt;VirtualHost www.example.com:80&gt;
ModPagespeedFileCachePath "/var/cache/pagespeed/"
&lt;/VirtualHost&gt;
&lt;VirtualHost alt.example.com:80&gt;
ModPagespeedFileCachePath "/var/cache/pagespeed/"
&lt;/VirtualHost&gt;</pre>
<dt>Nginx:<dd><pre class="prettyprint">
pagespeed CreateSharedMemoryMetadataCache "/var/cache/pagespeed/" 51200;
server {
listen 80;
server_name www.example.com;
pagespeed FileCachePath "/var/cache/pagespeed/";
}
server {
listen 80;
server_name alt.example.com;
pagespeed FileCachePath "/var/cache/pagespeed/";
}</pre>
</dl>
will create a 50-megabyte metadata cache used for both www.example.com and
alt.example.com, and shared among all server processes.
<p>If you are currently using a file cache, you can estimate a good size for
this cache by measuring the size of the <code>rname/</code> directory of
the on-disk cache, using the <code>du -s -h --apparent-size</code> command,
for example:
<pre class="prettyprint-sh">
du -s -h --apparent-size /path/to/pagespeed_cache/rname
</pre>
then, multiplying the result by 1.75 and converting it to kilobytes.</p>
<p> You can see how effective this layer of cache is at the
<a href="configuration#virtual-hosts-and-stats">global PageSpeed
statistics</a> page, where at the bottom of the page every shared
memory cache will be listed, including in particular information on its hit
rate and how full it is (blocks used). </p>
<h3 id="default_shm_cache">Default Shared Memory Metadata Cache</h3>
<p>
Any virtual host that does not have a <a href="#shm_cache">shared memory
metadata cache</a> configured
with <code>CreateSharedMemoryMetadataCache</code> will share a default
one. In versions 1.12.34.1 and later, snapshots of the shared memory
cache are periodically saved to disk via <a href="#shm_checkpointing"
>shared memory checkpointing</a>. Versions prior to 1.12.34.1 did not
support snapshotting, and instead wrote all changes through to disk,
significantly degrading the write performance of the shared memory cache.
</p>
<p>
You can configure the size of this cache
with <code>DefaultSharedMemoryCacheKB</code>, or disable it entirely by
setting the size to 0. The default size is 50MB, and is shared across all
server processes.
</p>
<dl>
<dt>Apache:<dd><pre class="prettyprint"
>ModPagespeedDefaultSharedMemoryCacheKB 50000</pre>
<dt>Nginx:<dd><pre class="prettyprint"
>pagespeed DefaultSharedMemoryCacheKB 50000;</pre>
</dl>
<p>
This directive can only be used at the top level of your configuration.
</p>
<h3 id="shm_checkpointing">Shared Memory Metadata Cache Checkpointing</h3>
<p class="note"><strong>Note: New feature as of 1.12.34.1</strong></p>
<p>
Shared memory caches are fast but have the significant disadvantage that
they do not survive a server restart. The file cache does persist across
restarts but performs significantly worse than an in-memory cache.
Checkpointing attempts to provide a balance by using the same fast
in-memory cache and periodically writing its contents to disk. In practice
this can perform almost as well as a straight memory cache, with the
significant advantage that it also survives a server restart, as the
checkpoint is read into memory at startup.
</p>
<p>
If you're using an <a href="#external_cache">external cache</a>, all
writes to the shared memory metadata cache are written out to the external
cache so that other servers using the same external cache can avoid
redundant optimization. In this configuration, the checkpoint is not
written through to the external cache when it is restored, because this
could overwrite the work of other servers.
</p>
<p>
Checkpointing is enabled by default, running every five minutes. You can
adjust this interval by
setting <code>ShmMetadataCacheCheckpointIntervalSec</code>, and you can
disable checkpointing entirely by setting it to -1.
</p>
<dl>
<dt>Apache:<dd><pre class="prettyprint"
>ModPagespeedShmMetadataCacheCheckpointIntervalSec 300</pre>
<dt>Nginx:<dd><pre class="prettyprint"
>pagespeed ShmMetadataCacheCheckpointIntervalSec 300;</pre>
</dl>
<p>
This directive can only be used at the top level of your configuration.
</p>
<p>
Note that if you disable checkpointing, the shared memory cache will not
be written to disk, and all optimizations will be lost on server restart.
</p>
<p>
If you have multiple file caches enabled, PageSpeed has to pick one to
use for snapshots for the default shared memory cache. It resolves this
by taking the file cache path that comes first alphabetically and putting
all snapshots there.
</p>
<h3 id="external_cache">External Caches</h3>
<p>
PageSpeed supports two different external
caches, <a href="#memcached">memcached</a> and <a href="#redis">redis</a>.
The main reasons to use an external cache are:
</p>
<ul>
<li>You want to run multiple PageSpeed servers without
duplicating optimizations.
<li>You want to allocate more memory to PageSpeed's cache than a single
machine an provide.
</ul>
<p>
You can configure different external caches for different virtual hosts,
but you can't use both memcached and redis for the same virtual host.
</p>
<h4 id="memcached">Configuring memcached</h3>
<p>
To enable <a href="http://memcached.org/">memcached</a>, specify the list
of memcached servers with a comma-separated list of hosts and ports. If
the port is omitted, the default memcached port of 11211 is assumed.
PageSpeed's memcached integration by uses a background thread for
communicating with the memcached servers. This allows PageSpeed to batch
multiple Get requests into a single MultiGet request to memcached, which
improves performance and reduces network round trips.
</p>
<dl>
<dt>Apache:<dd><pre class="prettyprint"
>ModPagespeedMemcachedServers "host1:port1,host2:port2,host3:port3"</pre>
<dt>Nginx:<dd><pre class="prettyprint"
>pagespeed MemcachedServers "host1:port1,host2:port2,host3:port3";</pre>
</dl>
<p class="note">
To start memcached with 1Gb of memory, use <code>memcached -p PORT -m 1024
-u WEBSERVER_USERNAME</code>. The default size of 64Mb might be too low
for large sites. See <a
href="https://github.com/memcached/memcached/wiki/ConfiguringServer">the
wiki</a> for detailed memcached configuration help. Be aware that
configuring scalable caching requires tuning and iteration. You must be
sure that the user-id running the server has permission to access
memcached. For example, on CentOS, you may need to run memcached
with:
<dl>
<dt>Apache:<dd><pre class="prettyprint"
>memcached -p PORT -m MEMORY_IN_MEGABYTES -u apache</pre>
<dt>Nginx:<dd><pre class="prettyprint"
>memcached -p PORT -m MEMORY_IN_MEGABYTES -u nginx</pre>
</dl>
If SELinux is enabled, then you must also grant permission for the
server to access the memcached port. Failure to do this results in
'permission denied' warnings in the error logs and will prevent
PageSpeed from optimizing resources.
</p>
<p>
When you use memcached with PageSpeed, many vital memcached statistics can
be found
at
<dl>
<dt>Apache:<dd><pre
>http://localhost/mod_pagespeed_statistics?memcached</pre>
<dt>Nginx:<dd><pre
>http://localhost/ngx_pagespeed_statistics?memcached</pre>
</dl>
These statistics are taken both from the PageSpeed perspective,
aggregating all memcacheds as viewed from a single server...

...and also from the perspective of each memcached server, aggregating
activity from each memcached client including all PageSpeed instances.

<p>
By default, PageSpeed uses a half-second (500,000 microsecond) timeout for
cache operations. If the timeout is exceeded more than 4 times in a 30
second span, PageSpeed assumes that memcached is not healthy and will stop
optimizing resources for 30 seconds before trying again.
</p>
<p>
For wide area networks or for alternative implementations and proxies of
the memcache protocol such as couchbase or moxi-server it may be necessary
to increase the I/O timeout. Please monitor the statistic
'memcache_timeouts' to help tune the timeouts. Select a new timeout with
the <code>MemcachedTimeoutUs</code> directive:
</p>
<dl>

>ModPagespeedMemcachedTimeoutUs timeout_in_microseconds</pre>
<dt>Nginx:<dd><pre class="prettyprint"
>pagespeed MemcachedTimeoutUs timeout_in_microseconds;</pre>
</dl>
<p>
For example, to increase the timeout to from half a second to a second,
use:
</p>
<dl>
<dt>Apache:<dd><pre class="prettyprint"
>ModPagespeedMemcachedTimeoutUs 1000000</pre>

<h4 id="redis">Configuring Redis</h4>
<p class="note"><strong>Note: New feature as of 1.12.34.1</strong></p>
<p class="warning"><strong>Warning:</strong> Redis support is experimental
and has not yet had substantial real world use. Before rolling this out
in production, be sure to test it well. If you run into problems, please

>let us know</a>.
</p>
<p>
To enable <a href="http://redis.io/">redis</a>, specify a single redis
server as <code>host:port</code>. The port is optional, and defaults to
6379. This host can either be a stand-alone redis server, or a master
node from a redis cluster. If the host is a cluster node, PageSpeed will
ask it for the cluster configuration and distribute its reads and writes
among the cluster nodes.

<dt>Nginx:<dd><pre class="prettyprint"

You can configure how long PageSpeed is willing to wait for a response
from Redis before timing out a request, which defaults to 50ms:
</p>

</dl>
<h2 id="flush_cache">Flushing PageSpeed Server-Side Cache</h2>
<p>
When developing web pages with PageSpeed enabled, it is
sometimes convenient to flush the cache of a running server, in
order to get the system to reload CSS or JavaScript files that
have been updated before the origin cache lifetime expires.
</p>
<h3 id="flush_cache_legacy">Legacy Flushing Of Entire Cache</h3>
<p>
By default, the system is configured to support only whole-cache
flushes &mdash; we'll call this <em>legacy mode</em>. As
of <strong>version 1.9.32.1</strong>, it can be configured to
also allow purging of individual URLs. The two modes operate
differently and you may choose between them for each virtual
host. Legacy mode is on by default, to provide compatibility
with existing scripts and other infrastructure that might have
been built around it. In a future release, individual URL
purging will become the default. Subsequent to that, the legacy
whole-cache flushing mode will be eliminated.
You can choose between the two modes with
the <code>EnableCachePurge</code> argument. If set to "on" you
will get the new behavior, with individual URL purging, while
"off" will give you the legacy behavior. The default is "off",
as if your configuration read:
</p>
<dl>
<dt>Apache:<dd><pre class="prettyprint"
>ModPagespeedEnableCachePurge off</pre>
<dt>Nginx:<dd><pre class="prettyprint"
>pagespeed EnableCachePurge off;</pre>
</dl>
<p>
In this mode, simply touch the file "cache.flush" in the directory
specified as <code>FileCachePath</code> above. For example:
</p>
<pre class="prettyprint lang-sh">
sudo touch /var/cache/pagespeed/cache.flush
</pre>
<p>
The system may take up to 5 seconds to take effect (changeable via option
<code>CacheFlushPollIntervalSec</code> described
<a href="#purge_options">below</a>).
</p>
<h3 id="purge_cache">Purging individual cache entries or entire cache</h3>
<p class="note"><strong>Note: New feature as of 1.9.32.1</strong></p>
<p>
In this mode, the cache may be purged by sending HTTP requests
to the server, using a configurable
path. The cache can be purged via
an HTTP GET, PURGE, or DELETE, once a handler has been
<a href="admin#config">configured</a>. The <a href="admin">admin
site</a> makes this easier by providing a graphical interface to
initiate purge requests and see what entries have been purged.
</p>
<p>To enable individual URL cache purging, you must
<a href="admin#config">configure the admin site</a>,
specify a PurgeMethod, or both. Plus you must turn on
EnableCachePurge:
<dl>
<dt>Apache:<dd><pre class="prettyprint"
>ModPagespeedEnableCachePurge on
ModPagespeedPurgeMethod PURGE &nbsp; &nbsp; <em>(optional)</em></dd></pre>
<dt>Nginx:<dd><pre class="prettyprint"
>pagespeed EnableCachePurge on;
pagespeed PurgeMethod PURGE; &nbsp; &nbsp; <em>(optional)</em></dd></pre>
</dl>
<p>
This establishes three methods to purge the cache of a URL, or to
purge the entire cache, assuming PageSpeed is running on example.com:
<table>
<thead>
<tr>
<th>Method</th>
<th>Purge single URL</th>
<th>Purge entire cache</th>
</tr>
</thead>
<tbody>
<tr>
<td>HTTP GET</td>
<td><code>curl 'http://example.com/pagespeed_admin/cache?purge=path/file.ext'</code></td>
<td><code>curl 'http://example.com/pagespeed_admin/cache?purge=*'</code></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>HTTP PURGE</td>
<td><code>curl --request PURGE 'http://www.example.com/path/file.ext'</code></td>
<td><code>curl --request PURGE 'http://www.example.com/*'</code></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Admin GUI</td>
<td><img src="images/purge_one_url.png"></td>
<td><img src="images/purge_entire_cache.png"></td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
</p>
<p>
The Purge requests for individual URLs made via the GUI are
executed via an HTTP GET. In either case, the URL being purged
is specified relative to the ORIGIN of the admin site. In these
examples, <code>path/file.ext</code> is combined
with <code>example.com</code> to purge the path
<code>http://example.com/path/file.ext</code> from the cache.
</p>
<p>
When the new mode of cache purging is enabled, the purges take
place immediately, there is no five second delay. Note that it
is possible to purge the entire cache, or to purge one URL at a
time. It is not possible to purge by regular expression or
wildcard. The URL purging system works by remembering which
URLs are purged and validating each URL coming out of cache
against them. There is a limitation to the number of distinct
URLs that can be purged. When that limit is exceeded,
everything in the cache older than the oldest remaining purge
request will be dropped. The limitation is high enough that
it's not expected to be exceeded often, but is not currently
changeable.
</p>
<h3 id="flush_cache_limitations">Limitations</h3>
<p>
The following limitations apply to both method the legacy and new methods
of cache purging.
</p>
<p class="caution">
<strong>Caution:</strong> In a multi-server system, you must run
these commands on every server. All the cache data from
VirtualHosts using that cache directory will be flushed. This
is true even when using memcached: the cache flush information
is kept locally on each machine running PageSpeed, not in the
cache itself. This is because of the L1 caches that run locally
on each machine, and because memcached does not guarantee
persistance.
</p>
<p class="caution">
<strong>Caution:</strong> Flushing or purging the cache does not
delete the old files from the directory, the memcached server,
or PageSpeed's in-memory cache, but it tells PageSpeed to
ignore those files.
</p>
<p class="note">Note: After flushing or purging the cache, the
stale files will eventually be replaced with fresh copies or
removed by the normal file cache cleaning process
(see <code>FileCacheCleanIntervalMs</code> above).
</p>
<p>You can change the polling interval and name of the cache-flush
file in the configuration file. If you set the polling interval to 0, the
cache flushing feature will be disabled. If you specify the cache flush
filename as a relative path, PageSpeed will look for that file in
the <code>FileCachePath</code> directory. If you use an absolute path,
then the caches associated with multiple virtual hosts can be flushed all
at once.
</p>
<h3 id="purge_options">Cache Flushing and Purging Options</h3>

<dt>Apache:<dd><pre class="prettyprint">

ModPagespeedCacheFlushPollIntervalSec number_of_seconds</pre>
<dt>Nginx:<dd><pre class="prettyprint">
pagespeed CacheFlushFilename alternate_filename
pagespeed CacheFlushPollIntervalSec number_of_seconds;</pre>
</dl>
<h2 id="downstream_caching">Downstream Caches</h2>
PageSpeed is designed to work without any caches between it and the user,
but it has experimental support for caching proxies. It works with Varnish,
Nginx's proxy_cache with the ngx_cache_purge module, and any other server
that accepts purge requests over HTTP, allows fragmenting the cache based on
UA regexps, and supports modifying caching headers based on the response's
content type. For details and sample configurations, please see the
documentation on <a href="downstream-caching.html">configuring downstream
caches</a>.
<h2 id="shm_lock_manager">Configuring Use of Shared Memory for Locks</h2>
<p>
When fetching or rewriting resources PageSpeed uses locks to ensure that
no redundant computation or fetching is done. This can use the file-system
or shared memory. The system defaults to shared memory locks, but you can
control which implementation is used with
the <code>SharedMemoryLocks</code> option, passing it <code>on</code>
or <code>off</code>.
</p>
<p>
Note that if you turn on shared memory locks when shared memory is not
available, the system will fall back to file-system locks automatically.
</p>
<p>
On multi-server setups, locking being per-host will not adversely affect
correctness but might result in multiple servers performing the
same computation simultaneously.
</p>
<p>
Virtual hosts that specify <code>SharedMemoryLocks on</code> with
identical values of <code>FileCachePath</code> will share the same locking
domain. Note that these must be identical strings, not just two strings
representing the same directory. For example <code>/var/foo</code>
and <code>/var/foo/</code> are different instances from a locking point of
view.
</p>
<p>
This setting's resource consumption is modest (300 kilobytes per instance
on 64-bit systems) and it reduces file-system load.
</p>
<h2 id="cache-fragment">Configuring a Cache Fragment</h2>
<p>
By default every site has its own cache. If you have multiple sites
served from the same machine that reference common resources you can
improve your cache performance and reduce CPU consumption by setting a
shared cache fragment:
</p>
<dl>
<dt>Apache:<dd><pre class="prettyprint">
ModPagespeedCacheFragment some_token</pre>
<dt>Nginx:<dd><pre class="prettyprint">
pagespeed CacheFragment some_token;</pre>
</dl>
<p>
You must set this to the same value on every site that
shares a cache. The fragment may consist of letters, numbers, underscores,
and hyphens only. The physical caching layer also has to be the same for
the two sites: either you need a shared <code>FileCachePath</code> or you
need to be using the same <code>memcached</code> server.
</p>
<p>
Note: you don't have to do this for simple cases
like <code>www.example.com</code> and <code>images.example.com</code>.
The default cache fragment is the minimal private suffix, in this
case <code>example.com</code>, and is determined from
the <a href="http://publicsuffix.org/">public suffix list</a>. If you
have <code>www.example.com</code> and <code>images.example.org</code>,
however, then they will not share a common minimal private suffix and you
should set the <code>CacheFragment</code> for better performance.
</p>
<h2 id="native-fetcher">Native URL fetcher</h2>
<p class="note"><strong>Note: Nginx-only</strong></p>
<p>
Often PageSpeed needs to request URLs referenced from other files in order
to optimize them. To do this it uses a fetcher. By default ngx_pagespeed
uses the same fetcher mod_pagespeed does,
<a href="http://serf.apache.org/">serf</a>, but it also has an
experimental fetcher that avoids the need for a separate thread by using
native Nginx events. In initial testing this fetcher is about 10% faster. To
use it, put in your <code>http</code> block:
</p>
<pre>
pagespeed UseNativeFetcher on;
resolver 8.8.8.8;</pre>
<p>
Your DNS resolver doesn't have to
be <a href="https://developers.google.com/speed/public-dns/">8.8.8.8</a>;
any domain name service your server has access to will work. If you don't
specify a DNS resolver, PageSpeed will still work but will be limited to
fetching only from IP addresses.
</p>
<h2 id="native-fetcher-keep-alive">Persistent Connections with the Native
URL Fetcher</h2>
<p class="note"><strong>Note: Nginx-only</strong></p>
<p class="note"><strong>Note: New feature as of 1.9.32.1</strong></p>
<p>
As of 1.9.32.1 the Native URL Fetcher
supports <a
href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTTP_persistent_connection">persistent
HTTP connections</a>. The fetcher will send the <code>Connection:
Keep-Alive</code> header and if the server also sets that header on its
response then the connection will be kept open for 60 seconds in case
another fetch from the same server is needed. By default a connection will
be reused no more than 100 times, but you can use
<code>NativeFetcherMaxKeepaliveRequests</code> to change this limit.
Keep-Alive support is on by default, and you can disable it by setting the
limit to 0:
</p>
<pre>pagespeed NativeFetcherMaxKeepaliveRequests 0;</pre>
<h2 id="url_fetcher_timeout">Setting the URL fetcher timeout</h2>
<p>When PageSpeed attempts to rewrite a resource for the first
time, it must fetch it via HTTP. The default timeout for fetches is 5
seconds. A directive can be applied to change the timeout</p>
<dl>
<dt>Apache:<dd><pre class="prettyprint"
>ModPagespeedFetcherTimeoutMs timeout_value_in_milliseconds</pre>
<dt>Nginx:<dd><pre class="prettyprint"
>pagespeed FetcherTimeoutMs timeout_value_in_milliseconds;</pre>
</dl>
<h2 id="rewrite_deadline">Setting the rewrite deadline per flush window</h2>
<p>When PageSpeed attempts to rewrite an uncached (or expired) resource
it will wait for up to 10ms per flush window (by default) for it to finish
and return the optimized resource if it's available. If it has not
completed within that time the original (unoptimized) resource is returned
and the optimizer is moved to the background for future requests. The
following directive can be applied to change the deadline. Increasing this
value will increase page latency, but might reduce load time (for instance
on a bandwidth-constrained link where it's worth waiting for image
compression to complete). Note that a value less than zero will
cause PageSpeed to wait indefinitely.</p>

<h2 id="rewrite_cache_min_ttl"
>Setting the minimum cache-lifetime for optimizing resources</h2>
<p>When PageSpeed fetches a resource via HTTP or HTTPS, it uses
the origin cache lifetime, based on the Expires or Cache-Control
header, to determine how frequently it should check with the
origin for updates. If the time-to-live is very quick, then
optimization might be pointless and PageSpeed will skip it. The
threshold is zero by default, meaning even 1-second resources will
be optimized. To set the threshold, use the configuration file
setting:</p>
<dl>
<dt>Apache:<dd><pre class="prettyprint"

-->
<h2 id="implicit_cache_ttl"
>Setting the implicit cache-lifetime for resources</h2>
<p>When PageSpeed fetches a resource via HTTP or HTTPS, it
examines the Expires and Cache-Control headers to determine how
frequently it should update its cache. When these headers don't
specify a timeout, a default timeout of 5 minutes is used. To
override this, specify:</p>
<dl>
<dt>Apache:<dd><pre class="prettyprint"

<h2 id="fetch_with_gzip">Fetching Resources using Gzip</h2>
<p>This option causes PageSpeed to add <code>Accept-Encoding:gzip</code> to
requests for resources. If the server responding to the request
handles this option (e.g. via mod_deflate), this results in reduced
bytes transferred over the network.</p>
<p>By default, PageSpeed attempts to fetch resources without specifying
an<code>Accept-Encoding</code> header. This means the resources will be
sent uncompressed. These requests are often within the LAN, so network
bandwidth to transfer the resources may not be a consideration.</p>
<p>If network bandwidth is a consideration, then PageSpeed can be
configured to fetch resources using gzip. This will lower the network
transfer bandwidth considerably, but may increase the CPU usage depending
on server configuration. The primary concern is the time spent by the
origin server compressing the resource, rather than the time spent by
PageSpeed inflating it.</p>

</p>
<h2 id="tune_thread">Tuning Threading</h2>
<p>
PageSpeed uses threads so that resource optimization work does not delay
request serving. There are two kinds of threads in use: <em>rewrite</em>
threads deal with very short-lived bookkeeping tasks that are generally
latency-sensitive, while <em>expensive rewrite</em> threads deal with more
computationally expensive tasks that are not in latency-sensitive
paths. By default, if you use a single-threaded MPM (such
as <code>prefork</code>) one thread of each kind will be used per an
Apache process. With a threaded MPM (such as <code>worker</code>,
and <code>event</code>) up to 4 threads of each kind will be used. You
can, however, tune the thread count per process if necessary via
the <code>NumRewriteThreads</code>
and <code>NumExpensiveRewriteThreads</code> options.
</p>
<p>
Note that this is a global setting, and cannot be done in a per virtual
host manner.
</p>
<h2 id="image_rewrite_max">Limiting the number of concurrent image
optimizations</h2>
<p>
When optimizing images, PageSpeed can use significant CPU resources. As
the results of the image optimization are cached, this is not ordinarily a
concern once the cache is warm. But when PageSpeed is first installed, or
when a corpus of new images is added to the server, PageSpeed needs to
avoid having each process consume maximum CPU. To accomplish this,
PageSpeed keeps a server-wide counter of active image optimizations. It
avoids running more than <code>ImageMaxRewritesAtOnce</code> image
optimizations in parallel across all processes. The default value is 8.
Override this in the configuration file to change this maximum.
</p>
<p>
This directive can <strong>not</strong> be used
in <a href="configuration#htaccess">location-specific configuration
sections</a>.
</p>
<h2 id="max_parse_bytes">Limiting the size of HTML parsed</h2>
<p>
When parsing and rewriting large HTML pages, PageSpeed can use
significant memory. This option limits the size of an HTML page that is
parsed. Once the size of the HTML exceeds <code>MaxHtmlParseBytes</code>,
further parsing is disabled, and a script is inserted that redirects the
user to the <code>?ModPagespeed=off</code> version of the page. The
default value is 0, indicating that there is no limit. Override this in
the configuration file to change this maximum.
</p>
<h2 id="ipro">In-Place Resource Optimization</h2>
<p class="note"><strong>Note: Enabled by default as of 1.9.32.1</strong>
</p>
<p>Normally PageSpeed rewrites a resource such as an image by finding
its URL on your page, fetching and optimizing the data in the background,
and then replacing that URL by an optimized pagespeed URL. But what about
resources that are loaded by JavaScript code? And what about links to your
images from pages outside your domain? In-Place Resource Optimization (IPRO)
will optimize the content of a resource that’s requested using the original
(non-pagespeed) URL, ensuring you are serving optimized content even when
that content isn’t explicitly linked in your html. This should be especially
helpful for sites with slide shows that use JavaScript to load images in the
background; those images can now be optimized by PageSpeed by adding
this command to your configuration file:</p>
<dl>
<dt>Apache:<dd><pre class="prettyprint"
>ModPagespeedInPlaceResourceOptimization on</pre>
<dt>Nginx:<dd><pre class="prettyprint"
>pagespeed InPlaceResourceOptimization on;</pre>
</dl>
<p>
Some sites employ JavaScript that is sensitive to the original resource URL
syntax and won't work with PageSpeed's altered resource URLs. You can
choose to
<a href="config_filters#preserveurls">preserve the URLs</a> of your
resources; these will still be rewritten by IPRO, but they won't be replaced
by a pagespeed URL. This is especially useful as an &quot;optimization is on
by default&quot; setting for hosting providers and optimizing forward
proxies – cases where site-specific settings to blacklist URLs are
impractical.
</p>
<h3 id="s-maxage">Setting s-maxage on unoptimized resources</h3>
<p class="note"><strong>Note: New feature as of 1.12.34.1</strong>
</p>
<p>
When there is a caching proxy between PageSpeed and the user, resources
that haven't been optimized yet shouldn't be stored in the proxy cache for
the full cache lifetime because this will prevent PageSpeed from
optimizing them. As of 1.12.34.1, PageSpeed marks unoptimized resources
with <span style="white-space:nowrap"><code>Cache-Control:
s-maxage=10</code></span>, telling shared caches that they should only
hold the unoptimized resource for ten seconds. Browsers will ignore
the <code>s-maxage</code> and will hold the resource for whatever cache
lifetime you had originally set.
</p>
<p>
The <code>s-maxage</code> value is configurable:
<dl>
<dt>Apache:<dd><pre class="prettyprint"
>ModPagespeedInPlaceSMaxAgeSec 10</pre>
<dt>Nginx:<dd><pre class="prettyprint"
>pagespeed InPlaceSMaxAgeSec 10;</pre>
</dl>
To restore the earlier behavior and not insert <code>s-maxage</code>, set
<code>InPlaceSMaxAgeSec</code> to -1.
</p>
<h3 id="in_place_optimize_for_browser">Doing browser-specific in-place optimization</h3>
<p>PageSpeed has a number of optimizations that are browser-specific. For
example, <a href="reference-image-optimize#convert_jpeg_to_webp">WebP
conversion</a> is performed only for browsers that can display WebP images.
Ordinarily PageSpeed accomplishes this by serving different rewritten URLs
to different browsers depending upon their capabilities. For resources that
are rewritten in place, this isn't possible; instead, appropriate headers
(such as Vary: Accept and Vary: User-Agent) are added to rewritten resources
as necessary. Enable these browser-specific optimizations as follows:</p>
<dl>
<dt>Apache:<dd><pre class="prettyprint"
>ModPagespeedEnableFilters in_place_optimize_for_browser</pre>
<dt>Nginx:<dd><pre class="prettyprint"
>pagespeed EnableFilters in_place_optimize_for_browser;</pre>
</dl>
<p>By default, when <code>in_place_optimize_for_browser</code> is enabled,
appropriate <code>Vary:</code> headers are added to resources that are
subject to browser-specific optimization. CSS files are served with
a <code>Vary: User-Agent</code> header. Photographic images that are
candidates for WebP conversion are served with <code>Vary: Accept</code> to
browsers that include <code>Accept: image/webp</code> in their headers.
Note that while the most recent versions of browsers that display WebP
images include this header in image requests, older WebP-capable browsers do
not &mdash; as a result, a slightly smaller subset of browsers will receive
WebP images than would be the case if the URLs were rewritten.</p>
<p>Internet Explorer has difficulty caching resources
with <code>Vary:</code> headers (they are either not cached or require
revalidation on every resource access). As a result, browser-specific
in-place resources are instead marked <code>Cache-Control: private</code>
when served to all versions of Internet Explorer.</p>
<p class="caution">
<strong>Caution for users of downstream caches such as
Varnish:</strong> Consult the <a href="downstream-caching">documentation on
configuring downstream caches</a> to correctly fragment cache keys based on
user agent characteristics; this fragmentation should work equally well
for <code>in_place_optimize_for_browser</code>. The <code>Cache-Control:
private</code> header sent to Internet Explorer will cause cache entries to
be flushed unconditionally. This behavior should be disabled as
follows:</p>
<dl>
<dt>Apache:<dd><pre class="prettyprint"
>ModPagespeedPrivateNotVaryForIE off</pre>
<dt>Nginx:<dd><pre class="prettyprint"
>pagespeed PrivateNotVaryForIE off;</pre>
</dl>
<h3 id="ipro_deadline">Setting the inplace resource rewrite deadline</h2>
<p>When InPlaceResourceOptimization is enabled, PageSpeed uses a
default deadline of 10ms the when optimizing the resource. If the
optimization cannot be completed in 10ms, then the original
resource is served to the client, while the optimization continues
in the background. Once cached, the optimized resource will be
served for further requests. Note that a value less than
zero will cause PageSpeed to wait indefinitely.</p>
<p>Also note that in-place-optimized resources generally take at
least two refreshes to optimize regardless of the deadline, due to
the current architecture of the server modules.</p>
<dl>
<dt>Apache:<dd><pre class="prettyprint"
>ModPagespeedInPlaceRewriteDeadlineMs deadline_value_in_milliseconds</pre>
<dt>Nginx:<dd><pre class="prettyprint"
>pagespeed InPlaceRewriteDeadlineMs deadline_value_in_milliseconds;</pre>
</dl>
<p>

sections</a>.
</p>
<!--
<p>
Furthermore, in-place resource optimization allows more expansive rewriting
with <a href="#uncacheable_optimization">optimize uncacheable resources</a>.
</p>
-->
<h3>Considerations</h3>
<p>Resources optimized by in-place resource optimization are optimized
differently from resources found in HTML, JS, and CSS. First, rewritten
pagespeed URLs contain a content hash that enables the optimized data to be
cached for a year by browser and proxy caches; in-place resources are not
cache extended. Second, in-place resources can't be optimized specially for
the context in which they occur on the page: images can't be resized to the
size they appear on the page, and multiple resources on a page can’t be
combined together. Finally, in-place resources that are eligible for
browser-specific optimizations (such as conversion to the WebP image format)
will be served with the <code>Vary: User-Agent</code> caching header,
reducing caching at intermediate proxies.</p>
<h3>Risks</h3>
<p>In-place resource optimization will add a new cache entry for every
unique URL requested. It will also copy each request into memory once. If
you have a large site with many uncacheable resources, this could quickly
fill up your cache or cause a lot of expensive string copies.</p>
<p>In-place optimization will also add a small delay to every server
response, this should not be large and we have not been able to measure any
noticeable slow-down, but if most of your resources are uncacheable, you may
wish to avoid this cost.</p>
<!--
<h2 id="uncacheable_optimization">Optimizing Uncacheable Resources</h2>
<p>
By default PageSpeed does not optimize resources that are uncacheable
or if Cache-Control header is set to private or no-store.
For sites where it's more important to optimize for bandwidth than
latency, it is desirable to optimize uncacheable resources.
By using the combination of flags shown below it is possible to optimize
uncacheable resources without storing them in the cache. This works only
when <a href="#ipro">in-place resource optimization</a> is enabled.
</p>
<p class="warning">
Note, that this setting can be very CPU intensive for the sites that have
a lot of private/uncacheable resources.

can <strong>not</strong> be used
in <a href="configuration#htaccess">location-specific configuration
sections</a>.
</p>
-->
<h2 id="rate_limit_background_fetches">Rate Limit Background Fetches</h2>
<p>
To avoid overloading the origin server, PageSpeed will limit the number
of background fetches it makes on a per-domain basis. As PageSpeed makes
fetches it keeps a count of how many ongoing fetches there are for each
domain, and if there are too many then additional fetches will only be
allowed through if they're for user-facing requests. Other fetches
(background fetches) will be queued up for completion later. If the
queue gets too large, PageSpeed will give up on those background
optimizations, leaving them to be reinitiated in response to a later
request. This feature can be disabled by
setting <code>RateLimitBackgroundFetches</code> to <code>off</code>:
<dl>
<dt>Apache:<dd><pre class="prettyprint"
>ModPagespeedRateLimitBackgroundFetches off</pre>
<dt>Nginx:<dd><pre class="prettyprint"

<h2 id="gzip_cache">Configuring HTTPCache Compression for PageSpeed</h2>
<p>
<p class="note"><strong>Note: HTTPCache Compression is a new feature as of
1.10.33.0</strong></p>
In order to rewrite resources, PageSpeed must cache them server-side.
Until 1.10.33.0, these resources had been stored uncompressed.
To reduce disk usage, decrease server latency, support higher compression
levels, and increase server throughput, the HTTPCache can automatically
<a href="https://developers.google.com/web/fundamentals/performance/optimizing-content-efficiency/optimize-encoding-and-transfer">gzip</a>
compressable resources as they are stored in the cache.
To configure cache compression, set <code>HttpCacheCompressionLevel</code>
to values between <code>-1</code> and <code>9</code>, with <code>0</code>

<p>
PageSpeed supports
Nginx's <a href="http://nginx.org/en/docs/varindex.html">script
variables</a> in some directives. You can use this to
adjust these settings on a per-request basis.
</p>
<p>
Script support must be enabled at the top level. To turn it on for a
subset of directives, which is the only method supported in 1.11 and
earlier, set:
<pre class="prettyprint">
http {
pagespeed ProcessScriptVariables on;
...
}</pre>
</p>
<p>
This allows scripts in the following directives:
</p>
<table>
<tr><th>Setting<th>Script Support Added
<tr><td><a href="domains#LoadFromFileScriptVariables"
>LoadFromFile*</a>
<td>1.9.32.1</td>
<tr><td><a href="downstream-caching#script-variables"

</table>
<p>
In version 1.12.34.1 and later, you may instead set:
<pre class="prettyprint">
http {
pagespeed ProcessScriptVariables all;
...
}</pre>
</p>
<p>
This will allow scripts in all directives, not just the seven specified
above.
</p>
<p>
Because Nginx uses the <code>$</code>-sign to indicate script variables,
when you turn on <code>ProcessScriptVariables</code> you need to make a
small change to any script-supporting commands that are
using <code>$</code>. For example, if you had:
<pre class="prettyprint">
pagespeed LoadFromFileRuleMatch Disallow \.ssp.css$;</pre>
Then you would need to replace <code>$</code>
with <code>$ps_dollar</code>:
<pre class="prettyprint">
pagespeed LoadFromFileRuleMatch Disallow \.ssp.css$ps_dollar;</pre>
</p>
<p>
If you have a server that you don't want the scripted configuration to
apply, specify <code>ClearInheritedScripts</code>. For example:
</p>
<pre class="prettyprint">
http {
pagespeed ProcessScriptVariables on;
pagespeed LoadFromFile "http://$host/static" "$document_root/static";
...
server {
server_name example.com;
root /var/www/ec;
# PageSpeed will load example.com/static/foo from /var/www/ec/static/foo
# directly, without going through the rest of nginx.
}
server {
server_name example.org;
root /var/www/eo;
pagespeed ClearInheritedScripts;
# This server block won't see that LoadFromFile config at all, so PageSpeed
# will load example.org/static/foo by asking nginx for /static/foo over
# http.
}
