Some installations of Apache will have been compiled to work with either Prefork or Worker MPM, but most by default are compiled only to work with Prefork. Changing to Worker MPM may allow your server to handle much higher traffic, more user sessions, with less RAM use. Your site or server will not scale well if it is running Prefork MPM.

WordPress with W3 Total Cache on Nginx with APC (Virtualmin)
Virtualmin now includes support for Nginx web server. I deploy many WordPress sites with W3 Total Cache and APC Alternative PHP Cache, so I was very interested to see how Nginx performance compares to Apache for WordPress, and whether APC and W3TC would play nice with Nginx.

Load Balancing Virtualmin WordPress Hosting Server with Varnish on AWS
I am creating a true load balancer topography for a WordPress hosting server, if it needs to scale up beyond what the current system can handle. Scaling Levels The current system is the “admin” path shown in the diagram, with no CDN or Load Balancing. It will handle a lot of traffic, but it is somewhat vulnerable to failure and overload. A simple and inexpensive extension of this system is to add CloudFront CDN, the “beta users… 5, 1, 0, 0 and 4.99

Image Manipulation in WordPress Editor – Crop, Rotate, Resize Images
WordPress has a very nice and simple editor that uses TinyMCE. As of WP 2.8, there is a load of new functionality in the image uploading and management department, with the new Gallery functionality. I like the way WordPress handles all of the image files attached to a post… it lends itself to slideshows, etc. But recently I had a question about rotating images within the editor, and I went searching for a plugin to do it… and found … 3, 1, 1, 0 and 4.1
