Hi there,

A customer of mine asked if I can install mod_pagespeed, a apache module from Google to optimize the speed of a page. So I had a quick look at the mod and did some searches at the DA-forum but only could find topic's from 2010.

Few questions:
- In older topics I read that mod_pagespeed has some annoying bugs and consume a lot of RAM. Is this still the case? I'm very curious of your experiences with mod_pagespeed.

- I won't like it to configure mod_pagespeed for all my users as no one, except one, has asked for it. Is it possible to turn on a module for only one user?

Thanks in advance,
BlueCola
 
Hello,

If you really want to customize your apache installation for only one customer of yours... I guess you know what you are doing)

Here is what official docs say:

Turning OFF mod_pagespeed

To turn off mod_pagespeed completely, insert as the top line of pagespeed.conf:
Code:
ModPagespeed off

These directives can be used in .htaccess files and <Directory> scopes.

Turning ON mod_pagespeed

To turn mod_pagespeed ON, insert as the top line of pagespeed.conf:
Code:
ModPagespeed on
