Best configuration for high traffic site
Posted by CoolMike, 03-05-2010, 05:55 AM |
Hi
I have a dedicated server with a very bussy website. The site is using php and a lot of mysql queries. Therefore I have mysql on a 2nd server. I'm using cpanel and would like to know which configuration would be the best for a high traffic website? At the moment I use Apache 2.2 with PHP 5.2.13 and apache is configured as worker and FastCgi.
The problem is, that apache is not responding anymore with about 50 Requests per second. How can I optimize this?
Thanks
Michael

Thanks for your help, I'm looking more for a solution wich I can easily configure in WHM easyapache. Because after the setup my customer want's to maintain it.
Is fastcgi a good solution?

Litespeed is compatible with WHM and Cpanel. It should give a nice boost to your sites.

There are ways to optimize Apache and MySQL and also Cpanel/WHM has a website optimizer module which can be setup to enable content compression which can help to boost speed. You can check http://www.cpanelconfig.com to find out how to optimize Apache and MySQL.

CoolMike: Did you try install APC (Alternative PHP Cache) ?
Few months ago, i tried APC for my customer (he has very busy traffic site based Wordpress source) and it's work fine now.
