Background

We start new project on our beloved LAMP stack, only this time it was WAMP // W was the server waiting for us at clients "data-room" so no tools that we are using daily (apt, terminal, putty, winscp, cron, ps -aux,...) just GUI, RDC and Windows tools...

The server now serving up to 10k visitors per day at peaks we get 50 active users with decent speed - but it wasn't always so. ill try to write down optimisations we already did, and future plans to serve visitors in nice manner.

Our database at the moment is round 1.2 GB with 4 million records in total. At the beginning everything was running on same server with Xeon X3210 CPU and 4GB RAM, Windows server 2003 X64 SP2.
