Persistent Connection: Additional Resources

Why Use Persistent Connection and Who Should Use It?

Today, the ranking of web pages is done by Google based on several factors including page speed and page optimization. After an analysis of two websites, one of which comes from a persistent connection server and the other from a non-persistent connection server, the following observation has been made.

Analyse de deux site web connexion persistante

You can notice on these two graphs that when a website has a server with Connection, each of its resources is loaded by a new connection. This is indicated in the waterfall chart by the orange bar. The advantage of loading resources through a new connection is that they increase your page speed. The server has the ability to send subsequent requests from the same server and the same connection, when your page has a persistent connection server. This system allows you to load your page faster and saves you from wasting your time logging in again each time. Thus, to have a better referencing, it is necessary to have a good loading speed, and less reconnections to the server. The persistent connection respects the standards of a good referencing hence its usefulness on your servers. Persistent connection is mostly for anyone with websites, bloggers, web developers. It is intended for individuals and businesses.

How do I enable persistent connection?

The persistent connection is activated differently from one server to another. According to each server, here is what to do.

Apache server with the .htaccess extension

To enable persistent connection on Apache,

Serveur Apache avec l extension htaccess

Go to FTP on your server and in the root folder, search for the .htaccess file.
Once found, save the file
In a code editor of your choice, open the .htaccess file and put the following code which will allow the activation of the persistent connection:

<IfModule mod_headers.c> Header set Connection keep- alive </IfModule>

Delete the old file so you don’t confuse it with the new one you are going to download now.
Wait a few moments and return to Supple to check if persistent connection is enabled.

Apache server with httpd.conf extension

Serveur Apache avec l extension httpd conf

With the httpd.conf extension on Apache, change your configuration file to enable persistent connection. A few settings need to be changed here. First, you must activate your KeepAlive by setting it to “KeepAlive on”. Then you must on “MaxKeepAliveRequests” set the maximum number of requests to allow during persistent connection by setting it to “MaxKeepAliveRequests60”. Finally, the server must wait for new requests. To do this, set your “KeepAliveTimeout” to “KeepAliveTime3” which is the waiting time. This is how your persistent connection will be enabled on Apache with the httpd.conf extension.

NGINX server

Browsers with NGINX server normally have persistent connection enabled unless your browser is not updated. However, on older browsers it can be disabled with the keepalive_disable directive in ngx_http_core_module . If by default it is set to msie6, do not change anything. On the other hand, if it is deactivated on your modern browser, contact your Webmaster or host. After that, if it is possible to delete it, you do so and if so, it will tell you how to proceed. Make sure persistent connection is enabled.

LiteSpeed Server

On LiteSpeed servers, persistent connection is enabled by default. Adjust your KeepAlive, number of requests allowed, and how long to wait for new requests during a persistent connection. To do this, go to the LSWS Admin Console section, then click on “Server” and then on “Tuning” and on “Connection”. Thus, you can configure your persistent connection. Then test your site on Supple’s persistent connection checker to be sure it has persistent connection enabled.

Microsoft IIS Server

To enable persistent connection on Microsoft II, follow these steps:

Go to IIS Manager.
Double click on “HTTP Response Header” found in “Feature View”.
Next, click on “Set common headers” in “Actions pane”.
To finish the configuration, go to the “Set Common HTTP Response Headers” dialog box, and check the box “Enable HTTP keep-alive” and finalize with the “OK” button.

Thus, you have persistent connection enabled on all your servers with this tool. Don’t forget to recheck your site after activation to confirm.
