Hello, I use mod-fcgid 2.2 with Apache 2.2.9 (worker), and php 5.2.6 on a Debian Lenny 64bits.
My fcgid conf (for tests) : MaxProcessCount 32 DefaultMaxClassProcessCount 4 DefaultMinClassProcessCount 2 the PHP wrapper : #!/bin/dash export PHP_FCGI_CHILDREN=5 export PHP_FCGI_MAX_REQUESTS=1000 exec /usr/bin/php5-cgi $@ I reload Apache (apache2ctl graceful) then I access to the website, there is 6 php-cgi process : it seems ok since PHP do a fork() to maintain 5 children per "fcgid process". So this configuration should allow 20 (4 * 5) simultaneous php queries, no ? So I run ab with only five concurrent users (-n 5000 and -c 5). And I obtain in my logs : [Fri Feb 27 01:18:45 2009] [notice] mod_fcgid: too much /home/xxxx/http/v2/index.php process(current:4, max:4), skip the spawn request The DefaultMaxClassProcessCount is reached, but why fcgid try have launched 4 process ? Just one or two should be sufficient in the case of five concurrent users, since each PHP process can handle 5 of them. No ? Or maybe I misunderstood this fork feature of PHP, and FCGID can't use this children in parallel ? But in that case, what is the interest of this fork() ? Thanks for any explanation, Olivier B. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Open Source Business Conference (OSBC), March 24-25, 2009, San Francisco, CA -OSBC tackles the biggest issue in open source: Open Sourcing the Enterprise -Strategies to boost innovation and cut costs with open source participation -Receive a $600 discount off the registration fee with the source code: SFAD http://p.sf.net/sfu/XcvMzF8H _______________________________________________ Mod-fcgid-users mailing list Mod-fcgid-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/mod-fcgid-users
