Dedicated Server Overload ... Low Page Views
Jun 9, 2008
I'm on a low-end dedicated server that I run 2 decent sized blogs on. I'm getting several traffic spikes a day where the load goes through the roof and I think I need my server optimized.
My server admin says I need a bigger server and he has never steered me wrong but this is ridiculous:
My blogs use Wordpress as its blogging platform....I know they hog server resources and I've recently installed Super cache so that seems to help.
I average about 5,000 pageviews a day and I would think even a low-end box should handle this but maybe I am wrong.
Here's the server specs:

Its been about 9 days since I launch new site.
75gb BW (bandwith) is used up. 24,000 page views so far.
Now I check and I am over the BW limit by at least 30gb.
I have to pay 50 cents additional for each gb.
Continuing the increasing bw spikes I realize it is not economically viable continuing for now, considering what I pay for original package.
The site has been down for at least 24 hours. My budget is rather tight at the moment being a student with full time loan. I did not realize VPS would continue even though bandwith limit has been reached.

By shared plan I mean affordable $8 per month shared plans offered by most cheap hosting providers.
By using wordpress without wp-cache plugin, what's the maximum daily pageviews / page refreshes a shared plan can handle? I mean, in terms of CPU load, before having to upgrade to a VPS plan or sth.
Can anyone give me an approx figure? I'm thinking, if you got 1 visit every 3 seconds, it's 28800 pageviews a day? Any shared plan can handle that right? No other crazy stuff at all, just one domain on wordpress with pure text posts.
I know things vary host by host, but can you give me your own estimation on this?

I have a customer who is having trouble with his account and would like to help him out. He has a VPS from a totally different provider and his Bandwidth usage is 20x normal.
In his awstats, the internal page views is showing a huge number of views to totally different domain names such as Yahoo.com etc
Has anyone ever dealt with this before or have any experience with what it is and how to stop it?

i want to kill apache/http and restart it again automatically. i need this because sometime we are not in front of the server to fix an overload issue immediately, which can affect a server very badly. i believe many of us already face this kind of situation and hope there is some kind of script or way to do this.

I have heard a lot of cases when customers used forbidden PHP scripts on shared servers and as a result their accounts were suspended due to the server overload. I am just wondering what scripts it is desirable not to use within shared hosting packages?

Is there a way to protect apache server from overload? For example Nginx has a module called SysGuard when system load or memory use goes too high all subsequent requests will be redirected to the URL specified by the 'action' parameter.

I have a fairly busy server, and received a High Load warning from my firewall monitoring software. Showing a high 5 minute load average alert of 13.89.
I'm presuming extra memory and a more powerful CPU would be required to sort this out?

I have been receiving these a couple time a day lately and not sure what to do or how to go about checking what might be overloading the server. IF this looks familiar to anyone, I'd appreciate some helpful tips. I'm still a novice, but can muddle my way around the server if given enough guidance. Here is the email I've been getting:
"IMPORTANT: Do not ignore this email.
This is cPanel stats runner on host.myserverhost.com!
While processing the log files for user xxxxxxx, the cpu has been maxed out for more than a 6 hour period. The current load/uptime line on the server at the time of this email is
19:20:10 up 2 days, 7:06, 0 users, load average: 15.17, 13.24, 8.00
You should check the server to see why the load is so high and take steps to lower the load. If you want stats to continue to run even with a high load; Edit /var/cpanel/cpanel.config and change extracpus to a number larger then 0 (run /usr/local/cpanel/startup afterwards to pickup the changes)."
I guess my question is, how would I go about determining what is causing the excess load? Seems to happen even when not many folks are on my site.

After Cpanel update latest release version. I have issue with named.conf.
I tried to rebuild named. but..
/scripts/rebuilddnsconfig
fixrndc requires a syntactically correct /etc/named.conf.
No changes were made to /etc/named.conf.
Problem was:
/etc/named.conf:23: when using 'view' statements, all zones must be in views
Anyone can explain me about "/etc/named.conf:23: when using 'view' statements, all zones must be in views"?

Right now my stats system only shows from what website traffic is coming. I have google analytics aswell, and with all its functions, it does not tell me from exactly what webpage traffic is coming, and to what webpage the traffic is coming to.
So, let say someone is sending me traffic from www.reffererxxx.com/cool_video.html to www.mysite.com/super_cool_video.html
My statistics would only show that www.reffererxxx.com is sending traffic to www.mysite.com
Is there a way(a script/service/program) to find out exactly from what webpage the traffic is coming, and to what webpage of mine the traffic is going to?
(I do not have server logs / webalizer / awstats as my server cannot handle the log processing due to high server loads)

I am not sure if my dedicated server is being attacked or if it is legitimate traffic. I need help figuring out the difference and if it is an attack, how to prevent it, and if it is legitimate traffic, how to configure the server to handle the load.
My server information is below:
HardwareIntel Xeon 3220-Quad Core [2.4GHz
8GB DDR2
SATAII 500GB
SoftwareCentOS 5.3-32
Apache2
MySQL 5
PHP 5
When I do ps aux|grep httpd|wc -l I get the count of current connected clients of 259 which is always maxing out my MaxClients of 256. I had increased it to 512, and it maxed out, I had increased it to 1024 and it maxed out, and lastly I had setup to 2048 and it works, but slows the entire server down.

the server is overloaded some times during a day.
There is one process of httpd witch use 80-90% of memory. Load increases to 90 or 200 :/
I installed strace and when the process appeared I run on that process and there is:
mmap(NULL, 364544, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0) = 0x2b25e60000
There is a lot of that entries.

I am using a AP7901, and at 12AMP I am getting a red led status overload. At 11AMP the led is green status, which is perfect.
Is this a problem? Shouldn't I be able to use 16AMP? Is it safe/ok to use more AMP?

My webserver keeps on overloading, causing pages to lag and mysql connections to get clogged. Each time it overloads, it's because of there being too many MySQL connections, and I really just don't know why there are so many. I am not sure whether someone is sabotaging my server or whether there is a hole in my php scripts that causes an abundance of connections, or some very slow query.

Can someone who really knows what they are talking about write me up a very quick parag. on the reasons why the internet is becoming overloaded w/ e-mail & why people don't get their e-mails besides spam filters filtering them, for example the grey/black list, detecting viruses in Word when the person's anti virus isn't picking it up, etc.
