I did not set up our hosting environment, a developer friend of mine did, so I can't answer that first question. I don't know if Drupal requires threaded or not or how to try running it in pre-fork mode.
- spooneybarger 16y agoI would assume that it isnt a requirement but rather an attempt to allow apache to handle more w/ less memory usage. Apache is a memory pig especially when using mod_* modules and running with in pre-fork. Can you describe as best as you know, your hosting environment?
- brandnewlow 16y agoMy hosting environment: The site is hosted at Slicehost, on two slices. Webserver: 4GB slice. DB server: 2GB slice. We do about 3-5k uniques/day. I've tried scaling the DB server up to 4GB to see if that solved the problem, but we continued crashing every hour. Part of the problem though with my own efforts is that I don't have much experience with sysadmin stuff to be able to say for sure that any of my own observations and attempts to solve were done properly. For instance, I scaled up the slice, but maybe I didn't restart Apache in the right way afterward to know if that made a difference or not.
