If you get enough traffic to trounce a (web server of choice) installation, you probably are making enough money to hire an expert with that system to tune it properly or recommend adding additional resources.
Don't get bogged down in Apache vs. Nginx vs. uWSGI, etc. You're nowhere near that point if you're asking that question. The web server platform is usually not the cause of site slowness, especially if it is tuned correctly (number of worker threads, memory allocation, etc.). Optimizing the application itself normally provides the largest gains. The three most common configurations I've seen are using Apache/mod_wsgi, Nginx/uWSGI, and Gnuicorn. All have varying degrees of difficulty, strengths, extended functionality (ie allowing configuration via environment variables for things like your SECRET_KEY), documentation, and support. Research all of them and determine either a) the one that is easiest to implement/configure/maintain/secure for you and b) whether your site warrants the extra work of doing so rather than using a pre-built environment such as Heroku. Of course, the Django docs have recommendations: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/howto/deployment/ -James On May 13, 2015 2:06 AM, "termopro" <termo...@gmail.com> wrote: > > No. >> >> Cheers >> >> Tom >> > > OK > <https://www.google.com/search?q=Apache+performance+problems&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8#q=apache+eating+memory> > :) > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "Django users" group. > To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving emails from it, send an > email to django-users+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com. > To post to this group, send email to django-users@googlegroups.com. > Visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/django-users. > To view this discussion on the web visit > https://groups.google.com/d/msgid/django-users/b1943895-42a8-4472-b11f-ec92a7120b65%40googlegroups.com > <https://groups.google.com/d/msgid/django-users/b1943895-42a8-4472-b11f-ec92a7120b65%40googlegroups.com?utm_medium=email&utm_source=footer> > . > For more options, visit https://groups.google.com/d/optout. > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
