THL Posted November 13, 2011 Posted November 13, 2011 My server load is showing as 1.73 in IPB ACP is this good or bad?
Luis Manson Posted November 13, 2011 Posted November 13, 2011 it depends on the cores... check this: http://blog.scoutapp.com/articles/2009/07/31/understanding-load-averages Also, just think on 1.00 as the 100% usage of a core... on a single CPU you have no more room, but in a two core system that would be like a 50% usage it goes on more than that, but i think that you can get a basic idea with this info :)
Rhett Posted November 13, 2011 Posted November 13, 2011 If this is a vps or dedicated server, run this from shellcat /proc/cpuinfothis will give you your cpu information. If this is shared hosting... don't bother worrying about it... go by your performance of the site... if it's good, you're good... if it's poor, talk to your host about it. A 100% load could be anywhere between 1 and 24 typically. normally a good load rating will be at less than 50% on average, leaving room for spikes for backups, peaks in traffic, etc...
changeindia Posted November 13, 2011 Posted November 13, 2011 in shared .1.73 is good enough, as long it does not go more than ~2.5, its good enough.
THL Posted November 13, 2011 Author Posted November 13, 2011 This is a quad core dedicated box with 8GB ddr
Royzee Posted November 13, 2011 Posted November 13, 2011 A 1.73 server load among 4 cores is very good.
Rhett Posted November 13, 2011 Posted November 13, 2011 This is a quad core dedicated box with 8GB ddr 43% load average.... :) nothing to worry about
THL Posted November 13, 2011 Author Posted November 13, 2011 Says server load is 1.73 with 2348 users online within the last 30mins.
THL Posted November 14, 2011 Author Posted November 14, 2011 WOW, thats very good i think! I just optimised my tables, I had to do the ibf_posts via ssh because of the size.. Just checked and this is the load at the minute on IPB ACP,0.68 Server Load 2528 Online Users oh well, not sure why it lags at times then as sometimes the amount of users doesn't increase past stated above..
Rhett Posted November 14, 2011 Posted November 14, 2011 Here is one to compare.16 cores load average: 2.02, 1.99, 1.85 (11% average) 4592 users are online (in the past 60 minutes)
