You might want to try switching to Apache worker MPM (threaded) and disable any extensions that are unused (especially anything like PHP) to reduce resource usage. You might also want to try a different web server like nginx or lighttpd. For apache, something like mod_bw might help you to reduce bandwidth usage which could translate to lower load averages. Alternatively, try faster disks, more RAM and faster CPU.... :) -- Kevin Stange Chief Technology Officer Steadfast Networks http://steadfast.net Phone: 312-602-2689 ext. 203 | Fax: 312-602-2688 | Cell: 312-320-5867 -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
