Speeding up page load I have upgraded your php to php 4.4.1 and restored the mysql medium config settings. The SQL database was not the bottleneck, as all threads were idle when trying to load the page. Strace provided some inconclusive results concerning errors loading the template files.
Speeding up page load The website that was doing very well http://www.retirement-retirement.com is now frozen when I post new articles like the others
Speeding up page load There are only two possibilities: 1) One of your modifications is causing this problem. I could look into it if you provide the requested files (see post #2055) or a full zip with all your modified files. 2) There is a problem with the server configuration.
Speeding up page load Thanks Randy. I need more files. Can you send me a zip with all templates and CMS files?
Speeding up page load I just tried your templates with my biggest test database (around 60,000 news). The performance is nearly identically to the original templates. I also cannot reproduce any crash problem. My best guess is that your current VPS environment is to strict configured. Perhaps your webhosting provider can move your sites to one of the better shared hosting accounts?
Speeding up page load The site work very well until I add new content. I would hate to move again because the last move was so ugly and I believe this server company has a good platform much better than the shared services we came from. Your sites work well, but the problem is when I add new content the main page becomes frozen, the back pages work but at a lower rate. Did you test when dealing with adding content?
Speeding up page load I have to say I'm frustrated, the server company says their platform runs great that the problem is software. The platform seems to run well and they have very good service. After reviewed them I believe they have the best platform on the market. The software company says it's software runs great that it's a server platform, I know the software has tremendous success with other sites, and that success would not be attainable with my issues, for my needs I thought and still do believe that it's the best product on the market. The search engines and many of our better clients have pretty much dropped us because are up time might be 7/24 and the industry is use to 24/7. These events have been constant for over 45 day. It truly is really hurting our business, time involement, and costly. It's funny because i do believe these are both outstanding products but how do we get a working solution. The program and server run fine until we add content, and the server is not overloaded. My frustration would end tomorrow if we could only fix the problem.
Speeding up page load Yes. I think your current VPS environment have a problem with rebuilding the main page cache. The main page cache gets deleted each time after you add new content. One thing you could try is limiting the numbers of articles on the main page to 10 or 20 articles. To limit the number of articles: cadmin => Other/Websites => Edit => Max. News
Speeding up page load ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hello, My best recommendation is to let the software developer have complete access to your VPS. Beyond that, we could possibly look at a dedicated solution. But that means a higher cost.
Speeding up page load I may found another workaround to speed up the rebuilding of the main page cache. Open index.php and remove the following lines: Code: if (!$insert[story_html]) { $insert[story_text] = DeChomp($insert[story_text]); } if ($insert[story_icon]) { $insert[story_text] = Icons($insert[story_text]); } if ($insert[story_code]) { $insert[story_text] = Code($insert[story_text]); } $insert[story_text] = eregi_replace("\[thumb\]([^\[]*)\[/thumb\]", "<a href="javascript:FullWin('thumb.php?img=\1&action=full§ion=news')"><img src="thumb.php?img=\1§ion=news" border="0"></a>", $insert[story_text]); $insert[story_text] = eregi_replace("\[thumbleft\]([^\[]*)\[/thumbleft\]", "<a href="javascript:FullWin('thumb.php?img=\1&action=full§ion=news')"><img src="thumb.php?img=\1§ion=news" border="0" align="left" hspace="10" vspace="10"></a>", $insert[story_text]); $insert[story_text] = eregi_replace("\[thumbright\]([^\[]*)\[/thumbright\]", "<a href="javascript:FullWin('thumb.php?img=\1&action=full§ion=news')"><img src="thumb.php?img=\1§ion=news" border="0" align="right" hspace="10" vspace="10"></a>", $insert[story_text]); if ($blocks[website_ads]) { $insert[story_text] = DoAds($insert[story_text]); } These lines are two times in the index.php script. Remove both. Removing these lines will disable the parsing of block code, smilies, and text ads during the rebuild of the main page cache. This will significantly speed up the script, especially with 100 articles on the main page.
Speeding up page load Thanks again I have a couple of small issues when you add a new article sometime the article does this. One is "environment�i.e., an FDIC insured bank account. Risk comes in various forms, but the average investor�s primary concerns are �credit� and �market� risk� " It sometime adds symbols mainly when you use a '.
