Comments: 0 Integrating eAccelerator Into PHP5 And Lighttpd (Fedora 9) This guide explains how to integrate eAccelerator into PHP5 and lighttpd on a Fedora 9 system. From the eAccelerator project page: "eAccelerator is a free open-source PHP accelerator, optimizer, and dynamic content cache. It increases the performance of PHP scripts by caching them in their compiled state, so that the overhead of compiling is almost completely eliminated. It also optimizes scripts to speed up their execution. eAccelerator typically reduces server load and increases the speed of your PHP code by 1-10 times."

If, like me, you want to use IPA with CentOS, this tutorial is for you.

Author: Falko Timme • Tags: apache, lighttpd • Comments: 10Benchmark: Apache2 vs. Lighttpd (Static HTML Files) This benchmark shows how Apache2 (version 2.2.3) and lighttpd (version 1.4.13) perform compared to each other when delivering a static HTML file (about 50KB in size).

Minimal Ubuntu 8.04 Server Install

Comments: 10 Minimal Ubuntu 8.04 Server Install I find myself removing packages that I don't need, especially if the packages belong to processes that are using processor resources. There is a way to start from the ground up, you can have a minimal system and just add what you need. This has the added benefit of extra security, your system doesn't have services running that you don't use. You won't use a Ubuntu Server CD, but the Desktop Live CD.
