I'm currently running vBulletin & two wordpress powered blogs on my box. Number of simultaneous users is about 200~250 and about 15~20 logged in users.
The memory usage is constantly in the range of 1.8 GB - 2.00 GB. Considering that total physical RAM my box has is 2 GB, the memory usage, I believe is exceptionally high.
The same site was running very well on shared hosting environment and also on VPS [with just 512 MB RAM] very fine.
What should I do to bring the memory consumption to minimum (required to run the site well?)
I got 5 wordpress and 5 statics website on this server and 100 visitors by 24H00 each day.
Question 1 : Why the memory is so low and the swap so high ? Question 2 : Why i don't find high usage process in top command ? Question 3 How can i resolve this problem ?
Am using Hypervm,my all vms are not using more than 512 MB memory but when i click on server as localhost the there is show maximum memory usage I have total 8 GB it always show 5-6 GB usage and never drop down, How can I fix this matters?
I purchased a VPS at wiredtree to upload a site that is in the works so that it would be "ready" once it was launched (had it sitting on a shared server before). So I have this domain on there, as well as a small wordpress blog. In total I'm get a very miniscule trickle of visitors to these websites (as they are not officially launched), around 100 visits per day, many of which are only 1 pageview visits.
My problem is, my server is already idling over its memory limit of 256mb. This is causing major slowdowns, and processes like cpanel are constantly be killed and I can't login.
Does anyone have any idea what is causing my high memory usage? I just can't image that the visitors I am getting are doing much, as for the majority of the day I have absolutely no one viewing my domains, yet my memory usage is still over the limit.
Wiredtree support says its up to me to optimize my msql/php scripts etc for low mem usage, but I don't see how this will help when there is no one using them in the first place.
for the last few days, i am facing high memory usage up to 90%.
Memory usage get's high, even if i don't have many visitors online. I have to restart httpd to get the memory to normal. some times, server loads, get's high aswell.
In error logs (only unusual things i see):
Code: [Sat Jan 6 10:37:04 2007] [error] mod_gzip: TRANSMIT_ERROR:ISMEM:104 [Sat Jan 6 10:37:25 2007] [error] mod_gzip: TRANSMIT_ERROR:ISMEM:104
We are currently running plesk 11.5 and over the last few months, the apache memory usage has been very high. On investigation we have gone through the logs and we can't find a cause.
I can issue a service httpd restart and the memory drops for about 30 minutes and then we see the apache memory grow to almost 1.5 - 2GB. Why this keeps happening?
I have a linux server that is only hosting one site , and although the httpd and mysql are working well , then the server load is high and when I restart the server the server load is high till the swap accelerates to 100% and then it uses the memory alot.
I have a site that is eating up my server resources and need to know what the best solution for this is. I'm thinking of getting another server just for mysql but do not know what specs the server should be to handle the current traffic/database load and have the site run smoothly without slowing down to a snail's pace.
An alternative is to get another server just for the videos being served and leave the database and html on the current server. This is where I'm stuck and don't know what route to take with this.
I've attached screenshots of top and bandwidth usage per day. Hopefully with this information you could tell me if I need another server or if there are any things I can do to the current server to help things move faster.
I just got a new server Dual E5520 with 6GB RAM, SAS 15k rpm raid10. It's running well. However, the memory usage is just around 2.5GB, even when I have more traffic. Here is the kernel info

Any idea that we can put more content into memory?
It seems that a user may get more percentage of memory purchased for real use. I've got a xen VPS which has access to all 8 CPU cores. Guess this is a good thing to be able to burst CPU resources
But this requires lots of kthread running to be able to access all CPU resources, which in turn consumes quite some memory, a valuable, limited resource on a small VPS instance.
The output above is grathered when almost no other services are running except sshd.
While XEN VPS surely consumes more memory than OVZ VPS, I would suggest the Xen VPS can be built in such a way less memory is required to just do the housekeeping.
Of course, that would imply careful provisioning, maybe less "overselling" for the sake of lack of a term. The bottom line is how we can reduce the memory usage, while ensure individual VPS instance can still have fair share of CPU if needed.
Is there anyway in the VPS kernel config which can disable access to certain CPU core, thus reducing the number of kthreads and etc?
I do not know if i have problems with my vps but "top" output looks strange for me. It looks like apache processes have huge VIRT parameter and all processes have huge SWAP param.
My VPS 712 guaranteed and 1024 burstable. I'm running 10 virt hosts with very small traffic. Totally not more than 500 visits/day. Most of sites are static and only two are PHP.
how much adding php to apache will increase memory usage on a VPS? This would be php5.
I need it to use phpMyAdmin to manage my MySQL database (actual site is running off tomcat but jspmyadmin won't work for some reason).
Or can someone recommend a database design tool (I've used toad data modeler before) which I can use on my home pc to generate SQL statements for execution on the server (and please don't say notepad).
I am trying to run tomcat on my linux server and I am getting memory allocation error. When I see check memory usage it is full, but when I check the cpu usage it show as this:
I was just wondering about DA memory load. Like CPANEL load around 300mb and LXADMIN about 20mb. I was going to get VPS with 256 only to host 40-50 church sites with just static html, not dynamic or anything. Greatly appreciated with your input. I'm still learning all of this
I have a VPS with 384 MB RAM, with free about 100-120 MB. I've upgraded to 512 MB (to have some other features...). I notice that the memory usage is always about 250-300 MB. For example, now:
Code: [root@host ~]# free -m total used free shared buffers cached Mem: 512 311 200 0 0 0 -/+ buffers/cache: 311 200 Swap: 0 0 0 But PHP tells "out of memory" in some tasks
The current PHP config is memory limit 192 MB (it was 96 MB, then I tried to increase). [url]
Code: <b>Fatal error</b>: Out of memory (allocated 19660800) (tried to allocate 39 bytes) in <b>##hidden##/includes/joomla.php</b> on line <b>3041</b><br />
I'm currently playing with my dedicated server, it isn't much but for learning purposes it's more than enough.
I have CentOS 5.3 installed on the server.
It's Intel Atom 330 with 2 GB RAM.
Now my question is:
When server is running nothing but basic install memory comsumption is aroun 500-600 MB.
Today I have rsynced 11 GB of data from one of my VPSs to the ded server and the memory comsumption on the server sky rocketed to 2 GB, leaving only 56 Mb free.
Since a short while back my server memory usage is 100%. The amount of visitors decreased so the memory should be lower in consumption than before.
I suspect a newly installed script could have bugs or misuse of the server by hackers. I don't know how to see on the server what script or what part makes the memory use so high. I see Apache is very high but I'm on VPS. Technical data........
My managed dedicated server at 1and 1 has very low load, but quite slow, I was trying to figure out the reason. The top and free command ( I run at midnight without traffic), here is the result. Can anybody tell me if the memory usage is normal, anything suspicious. Look like the memory usage is high even with no traffic, but 1and 1 support say that's because it's reserved for cache.
