Laravel Performance Optimization

Speed up your Laravel app: database tuning, caching, queues, search optimization.

When your Laravel app is slow

Pages load in 3-5 seconds. Users leave before the page opens. Google penalizes you in search rankings.

Database queries take forever. The admin panel freezes. Reports time out. Your team is frustrated.

Search is unusable. Filters return results in 5+ seconds. Users type something, wait, then close the tab.

What I do

  • Profile slow database queries and add indexes
  • Set up Redis caching for frequent operations
  • Fix N+1 query problems
  • Optimize search with Meilisearch or ElasticSearch
  • Configure queues for heavy background jobs
  • Add database query logging and monitoring
  • Optimize asset delivery and caching headers

FAQ

How much can you speed up my site?

Depends on the current state. Typical results: page load from 5s to under 1s, search from 3s to 200ms. I provide a performance report with specific numbers after the audit.

Do you need access to production servers?

For audit — logs and APM data are enough. For fixes — staging environment access. Production access only for deployment, with your approval.

What if optimization doesn't help?

If the audit shows the problem is not in the code (e.g., hosting limitations), I'll tell you upfront before starting paid work. No surprises.
