My problem is as it stands, the loads are too high already, at peek times our Dual Quad Core Xeons with 18 gigs of ram go as high as 100.00 and this is with a max clients of 600. We do use memcache and eaccelerator.
I mean I should have been more clear. I do know what the W and C are I was just wondering why there would only W and Cs.. sorry for the confusion there. When the server is at a load of 100 we still have 2 to 3 gigs of ram to spare and there is never any swapping. I just do not think that the problem is server capacity, it seems to be something else I think, but not sure what? In a top I see every couple of mins on all servers this. 22498 apache 15 0 0 0 0 Z 0.3 0.0 0:45.98 httpd <defunct> Right now all our server are at . top - 14:58:31 up 7 days, 3:49, 3 users, load average: 138.71, 121.10, 85.80 Tasks: 759 total, 1 running, 757 sleeping, 0 stopped, 1 zombie Cpu(s): 13.2%us, 2.5%sy, 0.0%ni, 82.9%id, 0.0%wa, 0.1%hi, 1.3%si, 0.0%st Mem: 18470312k total, 12042288k used, 6428024k free, 580252k buffers Swap: 2096472k total, 0k used, 2096472k free, 8233784k cached Current Time: Monday, 13-Jun-2011 15:00:26 EDT Restart Time: Monday, 13-Jun-2011 12:54:23 EDT Parent Server Generation: 0 Server uptime: 2 hours 6 minutes 3 seconds Total accesses: 1062620 - Total Traffic: 197.1 MB CPU Usage: u2966.14 s1473.45 cu0 cs0 - 58.7% CPU load 141 requests/sec - 26.7 kB/second - 194 B/request 378 requests currently being processed, 201 idle workers WW_WW_CC_WCC_.__WWWWWW_.WW__W__W___WCWWCWW_CWW_CWWCWWW_WW__C__WW W__W___.WCC____CCCWWW_WC_W_WW_C_CCWWWC__CW_W.WWWWWW_W_CW.W__WWCC WWRW_WWW_WW___WC_WW_RWW_W_W_WWW_C___WWCCC__WWWWW_W___WC_C.WWWWC_ W_WWW___W__C_WWWWW_WWWWW_WW_W.WWW_WW_..___WCW___W_CWC_W_WW_WWWW.
