Optimizing httpd.conf - HostV Community

sabinnechita · #1 (**permalink**) 01-11-2009, 06:16 PM

Hello,

I started last week to optimize apache.
Edit httpd.conf :

Timeout 15
KeepAlive On
MaxKeepAliveRequests 400
KeepAliveTimeout 15
StartServers 10
MinSpareServers 10
MaxSpareServers 15
ServerLimit 10
MaxClients 128
MaxRequestsPerChild 300

I have a VPS VZ3 1 gb Ram. What do you think? The Configuration is good?
HostV installed for me eAccelerator and with this settings I have a mean Cpu load of 0.40 per day.
The vps has 70 accounts (ffmpeg sites, joomla, php nuke, etc)

Please post sugestions! Thank you!

I'm sorry for dumb question, i have a VPS VZ2 500gb ram.

I have in tv only a site, with vshare, a youtube clone.

But, consume too much memory in the hours with most access...

Do you think use this "eAccelerator" in my vps will help to reduce the memory usage?

and what about the "keep alive on", also this can help me to use less cpu/memory?

Thank you and sorry if this are stupid question.

It is setup be default on all HostV VPS's
But......

Download the latest version of eAccelerator from http://eaccelerator.net, Version may of changed....

Login via SSH as ROOT!

Code:

cd ../tmp

Code:

wget http://bart.eaccelerator.net/source/0.9.5.3/eaccelerator-0.9.5.3.tar.bz2

After you download the file, uncompress the file

Code:

tar xjvf eaccelerator-0.9.5.3.tar.bz2

You will then have a new directory called eaccelerator-0.9.5.3, go to that

Code:

cd eaccelerator-0.9.5.3

directory and execute this command:
Run phpize

Code:

phpize

Configure eAccelerator

Code:

./configure

After that, don’t forget to build the files

Code:

make

You might want to run make test to test it first.
Finally, we install eAccelerator

Code:

make install

You process will give you and output that might be similar to this line below:

Code:

Installing shared extensions:     /usr/lib/php5/20060613+lfs/

Copy the above information to a text file, we gonna need this one later. Now that we’ve finally managed to install eAccelerator, we have to add several settings to the php.ini file.

Code:

vi /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini

(NOTE: This may vary depending on which Linux you have installed.)
And then insert this code at the end of php.ini file.

Code:

zend_extension="/usr/lib/php5/20060613+lfs/eaccelerator.so"
eaccelerator.shm_size="0"
eaccelerator.cache_dir="/home/cache/eaccelerator"
eaccelerator.enable="1"
eaccelerator.optimizer="1"
eaccelerator.check_mtime="1"
eaccelerator.debug="0"
eaccelerator.shm_only="0"
eaccelerator.compress="1"
eaccelerator.compress_level="9"
eaccelerator.allowed_admin_path=""

Note that we used the line we previously saved on the zend_extention parameter. You can also change the value of eaccelerator.cache_dir to any directory you want.
To see weather eAccelerator was successfully installed, create phpinfo file in your site directory. You should see a eAccelerator v0.9.5.3 text somewhere in the phpinfo page.
