Static content and dynamic are on the same server (that will change on production). But they are on different apache virtual. Mod_python is turned off for the static stuff. Hitting only a static page is very fast (6500 requests per second). Hitting the dynamic side is slow (300 requests per second).
2. It's gigE between the web server and mysql server, on a dedicated switch. The database is working pretty hard (7000 selects per second), but doesn't seem to be the bottleneck. The webserver is hammered (typing any command takes a long time). 3. I'm using prefork MPM on apache with maxclients set to 1000. We are starting to experiment with caching, but I want to improve the raw performance of the site as well.
