The only reason I'm digging this is because I am doing this in the near future:
See what the " " Configuring the production environment " that @Christian Hagelid pointed out.
More specifically: 1.2.2 Step 2. Clear the solution (optional)
- Delete unnecessary files Delete the following files:
- / Indexes folder - If you do not use indexes in your implementation.
- Everything from the / sitecore folder except: - / service -shell / sitecore.version.xml - / login / default.css - / images
- /App_Config/Commands.config
- /App_Config/ConnectionStringsSQLite.config
- /App_Config/Prefetch/Core.config
- /App_Config/Prefetch/Master.config
- /App_Config/Icons.config
- /App_Config/LanguageDefinitions.config
- /App_Config/Portraits.config
- /WebSite/web.config.sqlite *
- /WebSite/webedit.css
- Delete or comment on the following sections from the web.config file:
- Events
- workflowHistoryStores
- processors
- Dataviews
- pageextenders
- controlSources
- Substitutes
- fastCache for the shell site.
- watching
- Teams
- languageDefinitions
- the icons
- portraits
- publishing house
- media watchers and config watchers
- ConfigWatcher from httpModules and system.webServer / modules
- Defining a file system database from databases
- Delete or comment on the following scheduled agents in Web.config:
- CleanupPublishQueue
- CleanupAgents cleaning intervals should be adjusted if necessary
- HtmlCacheClearAgent if not used
I urge you to be brave and experiment with settings. Go through the web.config file one at a time and make sure you understand them. I do this periodically to remind myself of the Sitecore features that I donβt use. Try to remove some parameters that you do not need, and when they work, and you are happy with them, share your results.
Take full advantage of caching - Sitecore has great caching options, and if your site is configured correctly quickly, on the other hand, if you set your site caching incorrectly, it can be very slow and have weird problems with dynamic content being cached incorrectly.
Good luck
