Server Optimization Request

محروم.كوم · #1 04-10-2009, 07:30 PM

1. Is this on dedicated or shared virtual server.

This is a new dedicated server that I split into several VPS with OpenVZ web server and database server were separated as instructed http://www.jasonlitka.com/2006/12/13...s-with-openvz/

2. your server specs.
cpu speed/type single or dual cpus): Core2Quad 6600
how much memory installed: 8GB ram
hard drive type/configuration: 250GB + 160 GB SATA: Centos 5.2
apache/IIS version: apache 2.2.8
linux distributor or windows version: Centos 5.2
PHP version: php 5.2.6
MySQL version: mysql 5.0.58

3. what version of vB are you running ? 3.8.2

4. if you use mysql 4.x instead of mysql 3.23.x, do you have any innodb type databases/tables on your server ?
5. if possible how mysql was compiled/installed with yum
6. your top stats. So log into your server via ssh telnet as root user and type the command in bold - top
top - 07:42:59 up 1 day, 2:32, 1 user, load average: 0.03, 0.03, 0.00
Mem: 8159420k total, 325944k used, 7833476k free, 0k buffers
Swap: 0k total, 0k used, 0k free, 0k cached

You'll see stats like the following

Now while top is running hit the number 1 on keyboard to show break down of cpu load over all cpu cores. For example a Q6600 quad core kentsfield processor will have 4 cores. A dual Xeon 53xx/54xx quad core clovertown and harpertown processor based server will have 2x 4 = 8 cores listed.

i.e. after hitting 1

Best to provide the 2nd example top stats in your threads where possible.

9. is your vB the only thing on the server? yes

10. how many average -200 and max concurrent users on your vB forum ? 412 and what your cookie timeout is ? 900

11. create a file named phpinfo.php and place this code in it and post the url/link to it from your web site. Please url link only - DO NOT copy and paste entire phpinfo.php page's contents to the thread!

fishyforum.com/phpinfo.php

12. if you run Apache and you have your own dedicated server or access to your httpd.conf (apache configuration file) can you post the values you have set for the following :

Apache 2 users: If you can't find these values in httpd.conf it's because they have moved. You may find the values in /usr/local/apache/conf/extra for http-mpm.conf and http-default.conf

KeepAlive On
MaxKeepAliveRequests 100
KeepAliveTimeout 4
MinSpareServers 10
MaxSpareServers 20
StartServers 10
MaxClients 256

AND Maxrequestsperchild value = 1000

13. check to see if any files i.e. apache log files are hitting 2GB or 4GB max file size limits i.e. see if you have max file size exceeded messages in apache error log

You can use this command to find such files
Quote:
find / -size +2000000k
14. Post output from these 3 commands
