Hi Folks, My hosting company has just informed me that the CF7 instance for a site I maintain is using about 65% CPU at the moment (on a Solaris machine). The site uses quite a few frameworks - ModelGlue, ColdSpring, Transfer and Javaloader.
We have recently attempted to move this to CF8 but aborted the attempt because it basically just ground the server to a halt. So I think there is something more sinister going on here that I need to sort out before we attempt that again. However I'm a bit stuck with where to go from here. The site has been going along quite nicely until recently. Traffic has grown quite a lot in the last 1-2 years which I'm sure is not unrelated. Just to throw a few extra spanners into the works I *believe* this is a shared server but I have no information on what else is running on it and whether that could possibly be causing us problems. I know this is very very vague but I don't get a lot of info from our hosting provider except that we are using up too many resources. Perhaps we have just outgrown our current hardware, but I am not sure how to confirm this. Any suggestions on what I could start looking at to track down the source of the issues would be hugely appreciated. Andrew. P.S. I do have a development server which is identical except that it only has 2GB RAM as opposed to the 4GB in production. Load testing on this is definitely an option - I have used JMeter in the past but not sure I have used it optimally. Anyone got any suggestions on load/ stress testing tools? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "cfaussie" group.
