I moved on other hosting company ... better server 3x times more RAM .. CPU average load is max 0.5% :-|
nginx sux for me because I was unable to configure so I moved my ass in other place .
I made few optimisation in queries + gzip + I blocked Indian users ( lol?! )
Soon i will make the page caching .. just need to up my users with 2-400+ online to have a motivation

Lol, this is another way to reduce the server ressources usage

+ you can block pc, t9space proxy, opera mini and ucweb browsers

all t9space and ucweb users have us ip's and dont send any x_forwarded_for headers.

PC not blocked for the moment .
The only app browsers who send headers there are opera mini and bolt
HTTP_X_BOLT_PHONE_UA
HTTP_X_OPERAMINI_PHONE_UA
I dont know others .
I think only indians users come from t9space ..


ohh , I remember i changed the mysql connection type , from mysql_connect to mysql_pconnect (persistent one) .
I read is good for sites with big traffic .. the persistent connection dont make a new connection each time a PHP page is called up.

yes, pconnect is better, im using it too.

thats new pconnet lol

Pconnect has got its downs. I started using prepared statements with pdo, templating, still figuring out a way to cache search results. But all in all, I've avoided code islands, messy code. Though each script runs about .05s longer when run individually, under load tests I run, the overall efficiency and speed is really great.
