Hmm That makes sense, but in my case, i cant figure out why i am experiencing this issue: IE, 1gb nginx server handles 300 requests per second but a 2gb nginx server handles 700 requests per second. Everything else is identical in the. The weird is that the ram usage on these tests is very low. So my question is, why would increasing the total system ram affect the server performance if totaby w3elf - Nginx Mailing List - English
Thanks for the suggestion. I ran some tests and used top to monitor my nginx server and apache backend server. During this whole test, i still had about 60mb free on my nginx server and 80mb free (85mb before test) on my apache backend server. I can clearly see that the free ram was slowly decreasing on the apache server as it was running. So i can see it working (aside from the new process spawnby w3elf - Nginx Mailing List - English

I am using Autobench to test the nginx server performance. The numbers i generated above are when the response times are still very low. After than, more requests per second starts to error out. IE: 4x 512 mb apache server, 1 nginx server( 2048 mb) :700 requests per second 4x 2048 mb apache server, 1 nginx server( 2048 mb) :700 requests per second the range of testing was from 500 -1000 rby w3elf - Nginx Mailing List - English
Also, Here are more tests: 4x 512 mb apache server, 1 nginx server( 2048 mb) :700 requests per second 4x 2048 mb apache server, 1 nginx server( 2048 mb) :700 requests per second In conjuction with the data giving before, it shows that nginx is the bottle neck. But the cpu and memory usage are very very low. I am using "top" and sars to check activity. Also, using and activityby w3elf - Nginx Mailing List - English
I am currently using rackspace. I am pretty sure they are VPS. I doubt it is a network issue only because, if i increase the RAM size of the nginx server, the requests per second shoots up.by w3elf - Nginx Mailing List - English
Hey All, I am pretty much a noobie at nginx and i really need some help. I am using nginx as a reverse proxy server to serve primarily as a load balancer. I am using almost only dynamic files. The back end servers are apache. Here are my httperf results: single apache server (1024 mb): 300 requests per second 2x 512 mb apache server, 1 nginx server( 1024 mb) :300 requests per secondby w3elf - Nginx Mailing List - English
