IspCP limiting my system resources
I've been running ispCP for some time now and must say that quite a few websites are running awfully slow if they have a somewhat more cpu-heavy php script running...
My cpu never ever (ever) peaks over 10%, but still sometimes i have to wait 5 seconds for a page to load (or worse, the 500 - internal server error message) ...
i'm quite sure it has to do with the configuration of the fast-cgi parents/children but haven't got a clue how to configure them...
can anyone give me some advice on how to un-limit the cpu usage for all websites?
kind regards,
Rik

I've already upgraded to 5.2.5 a few weeks ago (and documented it here) to fix an issue with orphaned fcgi threads that wouldn't get killed 
i'll have a look at the fastcgi.conf file you are talking about, is this the file in /etc/... or the individual files in /var/...
?

RE: IspCP limiting my system resources
I think, you already have the *new* fastcgi_ispcp.conf (apache2/mods-enabled/)

RE: IspCP limiting my system resources
You can try to increase the "PHP_FCGI_CHILDREN" in the php-starter.
So that there are enough childs running and wait for the request.

There's something strange about the directory structure that i want to clear out with you, i have this folder:
/var/www/fcgi/website1.com/php5-fcgi-starter
/var/www/fcgi/website2.com/php5-fcgi-starter
/var/www/fcgi/website3.com/php5-fcgi-starter
but there is also a second folder with the same set of subfolders in this location:
/var/www/fcgi/fcgi/website1.com/php5-fcgi-starter
/var/www/fcgi/fcgi/website2.com/php5-fcgi-starter
/var/www/fcgi/fcgi/website3.com/php5-fcgi-starter
These folders contain the same data twice for some reason, and i don't understand how they got there... Can you verify your installs that this is normal?
What files should I edit, and do I need to restart anything to make the changes active? (apache, fcgi, ... ?)
greetings,
Rik

RE: IspCP limiting my system resources
I don't have a folder named fcgi in /var/www/fcgi - so the second one should not be there - move it to some other place and check your sites...
to edit, you need to edit the php.ini in /var/www/fcgi/<domain>/php5(or 4)/...
and an apache restart helps to see the changes quickly - you also could stop the phpX-cgi processes, so they are started again with the next site-access.

I think i'm getting closer to the performance i'm used to! Only thing that still catches my attention is the delay before the first pageload of a site that i haven't visited in a while... but that could be caused by several factors...
Could anyone here with a large ispCP host message me an url or two of sites hosted on their server that use cms (phpbb / joomla/ gallery2...) so i can compare the performance? (i'm hosting 10-15 websites on a dualcore amd with 4gb ram)
