--=-WZVqw92c2jFh/fmICImR Content-Type: text/plain Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Early September I upgraded php4 using the new php port structure (that is php4 and php4-extensions). Since then I have noticed quite an increase in server load - I'd say my current load is about five times what it was before. Graph available here: http://bjorn.swift.is/tmp/hermes-uptime-year.png I suspect this being because the "new way" seems to compile everything as loadable modules. My question is basically whether "this is just how it is" and that I should compile php myself I want it built as one binary - or if this increase in load is something not to be expected. Has anyone else witnessed anything like this on their servers? What did you do ? The server is a patched FreeBSD 4.8 running php 4.3.8 and apache 1.3.31. It's not a heavy loaded one, serving an average of just over 3 req/sec, but most of the files (besides images) are rather bloated php scripts; webmail, message boards and such. The server is running Nick Lindridge's PHP Accelerator. If anyone has any tips or thoughts they would be greatly appreciated. (Would freebsd-isp perhaps be a better list for a question of this sort?)
