LMS services

LMS performance optimization

Slow dashboards, quizzes timing out under load, bloated hosting bills — we find the real bottlenecks with profiling and fix them.

  • Moodle, WordPress LMS, Open edX, Canvas & custom
  • Senior engineers, no hand-offs
  • Transparent, fixed-scope pricing

What we deliver

What’s included

Profiling

Measure where time goes: PHP, database queries, cache misses, external calls.

Database tuning

Indexes, slow queries, table bloat and configuration.

Caching

Application, object (Redis) and page caching configured correctly.

Core Web Vitals

Faster LCP and INP through asset, image and font optimization.

Infrastructure

Right-sized servers, PHP-FPM, CDN and scaling for exam peaks.

Load testing

Simulate enrolment and exam peaks before they happen.

How we work

A predictable delivery process

Every engagement — from a one-week plugin fix to a multi-month platform build — follows the same transparent steps.

  1. Discovery

    1–5 days

    We review your platform, code, data and goals, then agree on scope, risks and success criteria.

  2. Plan & estimate

    2–3 days

    You get a written scope with milestones, a fixed price or capped budget, and a timeline.

  3. Build in sprints

    Weekly demos

    Work happens in short iterations on a staging environment with demos and version control.

  4. Test & launch

    Launch plan

    Functional, performance and security testing, then a rehearsed, reversible go-live.

  5. Support

    Monthly

    Optional maintenance: updates, monitoring, backups and small improvements.

Frequently asked questions

Why is our LMS slow?

Common causes are missing database indexes, poorly configured caching, heavy plugins, cron running on page requests, undersized PHP workers and unoptimized media. Profiling tells us which apply to you.

Will you need to change our hosting?

Not necessarily. Many gains come from configuration and code; when infrastructure is the limit we explain the options and costs.

How do you prove the improvement?

We record baseline metrics (response times, throughput, Core Web Vitals) and report before/after results.
