Hi, I hope someone can enlighten me here. I run a Zope system with 6 threads at the moment. Does this mean that if I get 7 requests to the site, the 7th one has to wait until one of the 6 are through servicing the request?
Yup.
I noticed that when my site went live and got hammered by 50-70 students, that things were slowing down a lot.
Makes sense.
With our Apache server we have over 200 processes running, and I was wondering about the utility of upping the thread count to a higher (much higher?) number.
Over 200 Apache processes? That's alot. That's like millions of hits per day capacity if your hardware can handle it. You may want to experiment with lowering the number of apaches or increading the number of zope threads.
As an example, can anyone tell me how many threads the main Zope site use?
