I'm looking at the bottom of a hockey-stick growth of web serving :-) In the near future, we could easily be looking at several million hits per day.
Right now, the web server is one machine running Apache (and some other stuff). I've set up an LVS director cluster and have a couple of machines running Apache behind it. Content serving is going to be migrated to this cluster very soon. I'm looking for info about Apache and possible alternatives... the serving in question is lots and lots of small files (components of Flash-driven banner ads... don't shoot me!) I'm used to Apache, but am willing to consider lightweight alternatives. What is the "upper limit" of Apache? Assuming that the host and network bandwidth aren't limiting factors... how much traffic can one instance of Apache handle? Any links to Apache tuning info? What other possibilities are out there? Zeus, Tomcat, litehttpd or httpdlite... -- *********************************************************************** * John Oliver http://www.john-oliver.net/ * * * *********************************************************************** -- [email protected] http://www.kernel-panic.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/kplug-list
