Have a question , Suppose i had a client tell me that he can access the web page but it takes long time to view the pages
Ooh, a hypothetical client, who hypothetically is paying you to test hypotheticals?
the website is a static
website ( suppose this website does not server dynamic data or does not connect to a database )... what would one check other than : the server load ( cat /proc/loadaverage ) , the Apache logs , the number of client connection ( netstat -tupln |grep :80 |wc -l )
You're not looking at a problem, as the page is being served up. It's just being served up slow. Stop thinking problem (unless the logs are showing you one) and start looking at tuning. Have you done any sort of performance tuning at all? I might hypothetically consider googling for performance tuning guides for httpd.
how would i know if it a client side issue or a server side issue ........
Benchmark it on the server, on a box on the same local network, then on a remote box on a distant network.
