This may not be a Clojure specific kind of question, but this is for my Clojure web app(s) so hopefully it's not too far off.
Currently when I deploy my web apps I run 1 app instance on 1 app server. Given these are multi-core servers I am thinking about running 4 app instances on a server to get max IO capabilities at a lower cost. (Note that I currently using nginx, to route requests to a Clojure/Ring+Jetty web app on a specified port. I am expecting that in order to run 4 app instances I will need to load balance within nginx to each port and also set the processor affinity for each app instance to ensure they are balanced across cores). So here are my questions: 1. Does this idea make sense? why/whynot? 2. Do you do currently do this for your web apps and can you provide any insight/experiences that could be helpful? 3. Is there a way to specify processor affinity within the application, such that I wouldn't need to manually set them afterwards? 4. Are there better ideas to accomplish the same kind of thing? Thanks for any help/ideas. Tim -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
