Apache and MySql Performance Tuning for High Traffic WordPress Website on Cpanel

By on August 26, 2011 in Web Server Performance Tuning

there were inevitable JavaScript and PHP conflicts, but W3TC is very flexible and was able to handle the task.

…e in those logs, no single RegEx, nor log file location, is going to work for every distribution.

One vehicle to propel the admin far along the path is Reg… 5, 0, 0, 0 and 525.81

Apache config for Worker MPM vs Prefork MPM

By on July 13, 2011 in Consulting, Web Server Performance Tuning, Wordpress
