Hi list

I've installed 3 vservers on a dual xeon (2,8 ghz, 1mb cache) based server 
with 1 GB ram, and 10000 spins scsi disks, currently the vservers/root server 
are not under load. But they will be soon.

I have my doubts about only 1 GB ram in the root server.

I'm using Debian Sarge inside the vservers and it's all running on Debian 
Woody (root server) patched with vserver 1.29 on top of kernel 2.4.28.

What really worries me is that when I'm just testing with ab (apache bench), 
the response of the vservers is periodically very slow and I get a lot of 
failed http requests. And the webpages sometime take 5-10 seconds to load. 
Even with ssh it's sometimes slow, when I ssh to the root server everything 
goes fast (sounds weird to say that ssh goes fast?!).

Here's a dump of ./vserver-stat, vsmon1 is a monitor for PHP applications on 
vswwwe1. vsdbe1 is a mysql databaseserver used by vswwwe1.

CTX  PROC    VSZ    RSS  userTIME   sysTIME    UPTIME NAME     DESCRIPTION
0      65  384MB    7kB  16h39m58  12h28m21  16d03h06 root server
1002   53    1GB   36kB    m12.12    m06.11   2h27m50 vsmon1
1003   52    1GB  144kB   1m26.78   1m51.37   2h27m38 vswwwe1
1004   22  756MB   40kB    m12.85    m03.82   9h59m50 vsdbe1

All the vservers is started on eth0 and aliased each with their own public IP.

What could cause this slow behavior?

Is 1 GB ram enough for 3 vservers or should I put like 4-6 GB ?

Thanks.
