Hi, We have a website running vbulletin and some other stuff. The number of visitors is huge, and our quad core 16GB RAM dedicated server is feeling the load. The web server is lightspeed Poking around on vbull forums revealed that most big boards run on 2 server config 1. Database server 2. Front end Web server. We are on single server. Sometime back we were on apache, and loads were very high, after moving to lightspeed, things improved, but looking at the growing web traffic, we would need to go with dual server, with one database server running mysql, and vbull frontend etc., on the other server. But before me make this plunge, we want to make an informed decision about whats consuming what load. Is the RAM the bottleneck, or is it CPU, if its CPU which process is eating CPU, how much is mysql process consuming etc., etc.,
So we were thinking that we run a simple monitor software which dumps some graphs etc., over a period of one week, where we can compare the real time traffic vs CPU load graphs etc., and which process is memory intensive, which is CPU intensive blah blah. Any pointers to some easy to configure stuff? regards Tanveer _______________________________________________ Ilugd mailing list Ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd
