or use nginx instead of apache.
Load peaks are exactly where nginx beats apache (one process per core
vs one process/thread per connection):
- stable memory usage over time
- less unhandled requests on load
On one server I set up, nginx+php-fpm+mysql handled 1.5 millions
request in one hour with ridiculous load
as well as ridiculous stable memory usage (2gb where most where system
buffers & cache)
