How many domains are you running?

[grg]

Quote:I have notice of P4-3000 with 2Gbyte memory and hardware raid10 pushing an excess of 500 domains per server.

I used to put about 2500 domains on a server like this whitout any problem.

Now i'm hosting thousands of domain in my custom evinroment.

I think i can't use IspCP for them because the problem whit debian-fcgi (it uses ALL the ram, i tried it and in 15 minutes it used 7 of 8 gb's of ram). Anyway, i'll try to make IspCP running whit php as CGI and to move this sites on ispcp.

Quote:The problem is not how fast are the servers but the design and handling of logs, backups, statistics analysis etc. The continuous copying of files, analyzing and updating is killing performance as most of the time is spent copying and handling old data rather than serving sites.

The original vhcs2 I was using (3 years ago) hit it's dead point as soon as I reached the 50 domains mark. The problem gets even worse if a few of the sites are medium-traffic ones (I mean in the range of 1gbyte logs per day).

I would like to start a new thread for optimizing all this stuff (and post my mods) however I'm waiting for 1.0.0 to get out of the gates as any "distraction" would probably delay it's release.

I also had very big problems with the file managment. CPanel, for example, uses a custom log file for each domain and whit thousands domains it creashed. Just fixed the httpd.conf and now it works perfectly.

I don't think there is any big problem whit hosting thousands of domains. Just look how the CP manages logfiles, backups and vhosts (a graceful can be a very bad thing to do in an evinronment as mine)
