Question about server

discuss4u · 2013-08-16 10:45:49

I am having a server with 8 core (8 threads) of CPUs, 24 GB of ram and 2x 1T harddisk (Raid 1).

Using "top" command, I found that the CPU load was about 12 to 17 during peak hours. It is still alright for the memory. Swap was not used during peak hours.

So I would like to seek for your opinions. Will it be a better option to get a server with more cores?

Or should I move all videos to another server?

I am using nginx. I am still trying to further optimize the server but it seems to me that it will not be really possible to bring the server load back to something like 7 to 8 during peak hours.

Thanks!

How many conversions where running when you had 12-17 load? How many visitors during peak hours?

I have not checked the access log yet.

There was no conversion when I have 12-17 load. And the number of visitors was around 800-900 in 30 mins.

In fact, the server load is a lot lower (6-11.5) today than the previous days. Yet, the number of visitors is still similar. Not sure about the reason. I will try to check the access log later today.

12-17 % load is nothing if these many users are there. Second Thing In My Site Some Times It goes For 89 - 95% In 8Gb Ram And 4 Cores When users Upload Videos For More Then 24 Hours Thats Why I Closed Uploading. But then also My Site Is Accessible With No Problem. If You have Issue Some Site Performance Then Change Server Some Times the Hosting Company have Low Productive /Performance Servers.

Hmmm...what i can recommend:
1. Use a CDN for thumbs/js/css/images.
2. Use sphinx search for searching/related videos.
3. Enable caching in Admin.
4. Enable slow query log in mysql and if there are any slow queries, please contact us and we will check/fix.

thanks symtab.

I would like to add a new subdomain on my server so that I can put all the videos on this subdomain and use CDN for my main domain.

Is it that Nginx is still not supported for multi server?

Thanks!

Nginx is supported for multi-server starting with 1.0.7.
