Re: CakePHP performance 1.2 - is future any better?

Hello,

1. If not installed, you should install accelerators / optimizers php
code. For example php-accelerator http://eaccelerator.net or apc
http://pecl.php.net/package/apc.

2. Pay attention to the settings cake-php/php (view's caching,
permanent connect to mysql, the absence of unnecessary redirects and
404 pages)

3. Try using system utilities to pinpoint the bottleneck in the
system. It is likely that the load creates not only php. You can use
this set of utilities: http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/top-linux-monitoring-tools.html

4. With the help of a profiler is to find the php scripts / classes
that consume the most CPU time. Do not do this on a production server,
because profiler adds a serious cpu load on the server.
