Acceleration of website performance
I am looking for a specialist in technical optimization and website performance enhancement for mirson.ua on the OpenCart 3 platform for ongoing collaboration (contractor or consultant).
After transitioning from OpenCart 2.1 to OpenCart 3, the website gradually started to work slower, with periodic "freezes" of pages and spikes in server load.
The Lightning module is already installed — it has significantly improved speed, but this is not enough to achieve previous performance levels.
The goal is real acceleration of the website for users, not just improving Google PageSpeed or GTmetrix metrics.
What needs to be done:
Conduct an audit of the current state of the website:
code, template structure, modules, SQL queries, caching, image processing;
identify "bottlenecks" affecting speed.
Optimize:
frontend (HTML, JS, CSS, images, lazy-load, browser caching);
backend (database queries, page caching, modules, cron jobs).
Set up performance logging (at your discretion — for example, Lighthouse CI, GTmetrix, or other tools).
Conduct testing before and after optimization to capture the real effect.
If necessary — provide recommendations for the server specialist (PHP, MySQL, Redis, caching, etc.).
Expected results:
page loading speed on desktop and mobile devices significantly increases;
stable operation without "hangs" even under peak load;
noticeable improvement in UX without loss of functionality;
a brief report on completed work and recommendations for the future is provided.
Requirements for the specialist:
experience in optimizing large projects on OpenCart 3;
understanding of caching mechanisms (Lightning, PageCache, Redis, Varnish, Cloudflare);
basic knowledge of Linux server administration — will be a plus;
real cases (portfolio or examples of websites that have been accelerated).
Collaboration format:
first stage — audit and one-time optimization;
further long-term collaboration for technical support is possible.

5631 77 3 Good day!
I have been working with OpenCart for 15 years. I know its problems very well and how to deal with them.
I conducted a superficial audit of your site - I noticed a couple of critical issues that affect speed and security. Most likely, there will be issues with the server, the database, and the code.
I propose collaboration as follows - my fee is for conducting a full audit. There I will localize the problems in each section. If there are minor bugs (and there will be) - I will fix them immediately during the audit.
After completing the audit, I will see the full scope of work and we can discuss the cost and timeline for optimization.
I will be happy to continue our collaboration!

605 2 0 We at RedHotTeam regularly accelerate large eCommerce platforms after core updates — and we have worked with OpenCart 3 more than once. But honestly: if you want stable speed, without “hangs” and peak loads — Shopify will be a significantly more effective solution than continuing to patch OpenCart.
Let me explain briefly 👇
🔹 The architecture of Shopify is built on CDN + Cloudflare-level caching, so there are no slowdowns even with thousands of visitors simultaneously.
🔹 The code and themes are not cluttered with modules, as in OpenCart — everything is done through Liquid/JSON templates, which render almost instantly.
🔹 Automatic scaling — Shopify distributes the load itself, there is no need for a separate Redis or Varnish.
🔹 Stability and security — server updates and caching are fully managed, you do not risk, as after the transition from OC2 → OC3.
🔹 Real speed for users, not just PageSpeed metrics — our Shopify projects maintain LCP < 2.5 s and CLS < 0.1.

If you are not yet ready for migration — we can conduct a full technical audit of OpenCart 3 (SQL, template, cache, modules, server), optimize the front and backend, add performance logging, and prepare a detailed report with recommendations for migration.
But if the goal is stable speed, lower server costs, and 0 technical headaches, Shopify will be your final solution.
When is it convenient to discuss the details and start with the audit?

1328 35 1 Good day. I will perform a real optimization of the OpenCart database. You already have Lightning installed, which is the best caching module. If it didn't help, then it's only the database + code.
