Ok, tried that, no notice printed out. What is a good value for
worker_connections?
http://wiki.codemongers.com/NginxMainModule#worker_processes talks about these
settings.
proxy_connect_timeout 90;
proxy_send_timeout 90;
proxy_read_timeout 90;
Depends on what is normal for your app. IMO these are WAY to high for defaults.
It means that nginx will wait 1.5 minutes(!) for a downed server to respond
before moving to your other box. You should also look at max_fails and
fail_timeout.
Yup, just trying to figure out what exactly it is that we need! We've
hit the front page of digg before, though not as big last time.
To me it seems nginx did its job. Glad you solved the FDs with ulimit -n that is
the only obvious thing that jumps out at me on the nginx side. I highly suspect
an application bottleneck from what you describe, such as a slow db or
something.
My pleasure. I am just a few weeks into nginx and this list so it feels good to
help out and be in a position to start giving back. HTH.
