Hello ! :) Regarding XCache, can you tell me if it works better with the highest possible value for xcache.size ? Or should xcache.size be set to a reasonnable value in any case ? I'm asking this because : - I had OOms when xcache.size was set at 64M. So I decided to increase xcache.size up to 96M. - when looking at the administration panel, I notice that there are blue and green bars : but after some time, when the bars are near to be filled, everything is cleared : Is this normal ? Thank you for your help ! :)

Hello I am using xcache and i add also the: $INFO['use_xcache'] = '1'; On the config of the forum. Does that means that it will cache other things than php requests? And my second question is as i want to use memcache for static files and xcache for dynamic which line i must add to the forum config? Please give me some info. And the third question :) Do i have to compile from easy apache update on cpanel the memcache and the memcached? I think memcached is for php.. Memcache will work alone? Thank you

Well to me the site is fairly large. Im converting about 30k members millions of posts from a vBulletin 3.8 install to IPB 3.1.4. I just want to make sure the convert goes off without a hitch and if I run into an issue I have someone to offer assistance. Let me know if there is anyone out there and what your rate would be. On a side note I have already done a few conversions with the database but issues always seem to arise when I try want to go live (this is my second forum conversion)

Hello! First of all I made this thread out of curiosity. I have no experience what so ever, and I hope you could help me boost my knowledge a bit :P What are the benefits, and/or disadvantages using SSD for large databases (20+ GB)? If you run a forum on a SSD wouldn't content (posts etc. (not images etc of course)) be displayed much faster (improved speed)? And also, when using the forum search function, wouldn't results display faster? Or am I missing something here? I have read that having DBs on SSD is much more efficient when it comes to repairing/doing changes in the DB and that this on a HDD would take a ridiculous amount of time. I know memory is vital, but let'…

I have the intention to upgrade my server with the new PHP and MySQL scripts, and exactly from PHP 5.2.14 to php 5.3.3 and MySQL from 5.1.44 to MySQL 5.5 I would ask you if some of you had issues with those new version of the scripts, and would go ahead, as I would then install Sphinx and change tables from MyISAM to InnoDB. Your experience?

I've got a forum split between 2 servers. I've installed Sphinx to the database server and set it up as per the instructions. It's generated indexes and such with no problems. Unfortunately the forum doesn't appear to be using it to search for things. It searches members fine but not the forums it just returns no results for terms I know should generate plenty of results. The settings are: Address: IP of database server, port: default, sphinx base path: /var/sphinx as per guide, wildcard searching is off. When starting Sphinx says it's listening on 127.0.0.1:3312 so I'm wondering if that may be implying that it's only receiving connections from localhost, but that…

I have an IPB forum with chat and calender apps. No portal, no blog, no gallery, and almost no hooks. Just the ip.board. The board has roughly 3,500 members and averages about 60 online users during daytime hours. From about 9pm until 8am, that number drops to almost zero. We don't allow attachments. We have about 300,000 posts and the ipb database size is under 200MB. Siteground, which responds to every problem by recommending a more powerful server, says we've maxxed out a dedicated server. I say no freaking way. Time to move. What type of server package should be required to run this community? Can anyone give a recommendation? I'm eyeing the following Hostgator …

I got a little bored and figured I'd hack up a MySQL database driver that does read/write splitting. The nice thing about this driver is that it shouldn't break as the current mysql drivers are updated. I'm not sure how well it works but if you want to try it out and give me some feedback it will help me to improve it. From my own experiments I didn't seem to come across any problems. The idea for this driver is that you can set up your mysql in a master-slave configuration where you have one master that you can both read and write updates to, and copies of the data are sent out to the slave databases. Sample Setup: Mysql Master Server + Slave #1 + Slave #2 +…

A lot of people on a forum I'm on that recently switched to IPB are complaining that the forum is much slower now since switching from vB to IPB. I noticed it is a bit sluggish as well, but only by a second or two. There are a LOT of members, and millions of posts. No one will sacrifice pruning forums because they know they will lose their "precious post count." Any ideas for speeding up the forum, for someone who is no good with MySQL editing?

Does anything need to be adjusted in the xcache files, themselves ? When using this for the forum,or is it just a case of adding one line to the config file within IPB.. In regard to this article http://community.invisionpower.com/resources/documentation/index.html/_/tutorials/large-communities/using-alternate-cache-storage-r169
