Ok. So our intranet machine has gone from hosting one very crude noticeboard to hosting our entire system. Currently it is a 1.2 Duron with 512mb of ram and we have around 30 active sessions accessing it at any one time now.
While I will be upgrading the processor/memory. I dunno if either are the actual problem here. Could the bottleneck be disk access? Should I be looking at a specific type of processor/memory?
EDIT: Ok, I've had 'top' running for a while now and I just saw apache2 max out the processor for 5-6 seconds which is a tad surprising!
I've tried looking around but not really found anything detailing what is recommended for such a server. It will be running gentoo with apache/php/mysql
Any info would be greatly appreciated, ta!
