Reply To: nginx vs apache installs with buddypress
Thats the thing henry alot of people dont even understand what you just said more than likely and if they do once they have performed their initial install of Linux/ Apache/ MySQL and PHP everything is left as default for most people. I guess what i have been trying to do for the past few years is come up with the best possible config and environment for true scalability, this is my 4th server and i have upgraded from first having a vps to then having 3 dedicated servers each more powerfull than the last, i have now decided to stick with my newest server for the initial release of my buddypress built site and may keep my other 2 online for when i want to delve into the world of adding servers together for scalability (which i still have alot to learn as i know how to do this in theory but not yet in paractice) as i have a good deal on them and use them for testing with.
my new server is an 8 core xeon @3.3ghz with 32gb eec ram and 4 x 3tb hardrive in raid 10 with a dedicated hardware raid controller so should be great for buddypress.
