If the app is slow, how "slow" is slow? 2s a page or 10s for a page?
Now you have to look at what is slow. Is it page render? is it the database? If its page render you will have to look at caching. If its database you need to optimize the database. Add indexes and tune the database. Are you using MySQL? Innodb? did you change the tablespace after going live? How but is the database in MB? I have a feeling that your site does not get crazy amount of traffic and therefore using nginx or Apache or passenger or thin is not going to make any difference. UNLESS your server is a virtual server with only 256mb ram and you are swapping because you did not move the max passenger threads down from the default 6.. my 2cents... PS if this app is 3+ years old you should at a minimum upgrade rails and make use of new rails features... 2006 is Rails 1.1.x ... --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
