Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications By Matt Monday at 02:04 PM
rahaug Posted October 25, 2015 Posted October 25, 2015 Hi, We took over the forum hundesonen dot no in june, and upgraded to IPBoard 4 i september. After the upgrade we've have serious performance issues. To gain extra performance we moved the forum to a new VPS when we upgraded to IPB4, which means we have two possible sources for the lack of performance. I'm a web developer, but have zero experience with IPBoard. I've tried everything I can think of. I've optimized MySQL, tweaked Nginx, using cache, talked to the VPS vendor, with only minor performance gains as a result. Is there somebody out there who can help us? Our VPS has 250 GB SSD, 8GB ram, 4 core CPU. The MySQL DB is 8.6 GB and consist of bot MyISAM and InnoDB. We run Ubuntu 14.04.3 LTS, PHP 5.5.9-1, nginx/1.4.6, mysql Ver 14.14 Distrib 5.5.44. It looks like we have some slow queries and MySQL locks. A lot of users also experience 502 Bad Gateway from Nginx. free -mh total used free shared buffers cached Mem: 7.8G 5.6G 2.2G 6.8M 181M 3.5G -/+ buffers/cache: 2.0G 5.8G Swap: 2.0G 14M 2.0G top - 21:29:21 up 53 days, 12:49, 1 user, load average: 1.44, 1.37, 1.35 Tasks: 118 total, 3 running, 115 sleeping, 0 stopped, 0 zombie %Cpu(s): 29.0 us, 2.2 sy, 0.0 ni, 68.2 id, 0.1 wa, 0.6 hi, 0.0 si, 0.0 st KiB Mem: 8176864 total, 5895468 used, 2281396 free, 185908 buffers KiB Swap: 2096124 total, 14788 used, 2081336 free. 3635204 cached Mem PID USER PR NI VIRT RES SHR S %CPU %MEM TIME+ COMMAND 28687 www-data 20 0 438000 36132 7528 S 24.3 0.4 1:22.62 php5-fpm 28716 www-data 20 0 440748 38720 7376 S 21.6 0.5 0:58.06 php5-fpm 28565 www-data 20 0 452872 49588 7544 R 20.3 0.6 2:54.74 php5-fpm 28465 www-data 20 0 440264 38384 7444 S 18.9 0.5 3:41.92 php5-fpm 28744 www-data 20 0 437416 34440 6424 S 10.6 0.4 0:39.77 php5-fpm 496 mysql 20 0 7664628 1.185g 7616 S 7.0 15.2 3820:31 mysqld 28619 www-data 20 0 441340 38340 6388 S 6.0 0.5 2:08.88 php5-fpm 28366 www-data 20 0 441492 39744 7592 S 4.7 0.5 4:57.21 php5-fpm 18783 www-data 20 0 88528 3432 1064 S 4.0 0.0 34:13.11 nginx Do you need any additional debug info?

rahaug Posted October 25, 2015 Author Posted October 25, 2015 Thank you @Adlago, it makes the forum appear a bit faster.
Adlago Posted October 25, 2015 Posted October 25, 2015 Try to include a cookie-free domain . Here I describe how to do
Tracy Perry Posted October 26, 2015 Posted October 26, 2015 No cookie free domain, no guest caching - just some base server settings. The forum page https://gtmetrix.com/reports/thebent.bike/Kh6L1Ptx And using Pages as the landing page (not a whole lot can be done on image resize since it is using the gallery sidebar plugin). https://gtmetrix.com/reports/thebent.bike/wsF9DjVu
rahaug Posted October 27, 2015 Author Posted October 27, 2015 We hired @Makoto to help us, he tuned the server and forum which solved our issues. Highly recommended if anyone need any help with IP Board! Thank you guys for contributing suggestions!
