Can I still free more RAM?

curiosus

It's my first time running a LEB on my own. I just installed Nginx, MySQL, PHP. I am running one very new Wordpress site, no visitors yet. But my RAM usage is already 100+MB. I was wondering what do you think of this stats. Is there something there that I should disable or adjust?

For one wordpress site, you could save a lot of ram sure. Did you install with a script like Minstall or Tuxlite or did you just apt-get the packages without any config?

I'd configure mySQL for low memory usage and reduce amount of php and nginx workers for starters.

apt-get only. I've removed innodb. How do you reduce the amount of php and nginx workers?

Are you out of RAM? Why optimize, when there is still enough resources?

So? Have you plans to add there other sites in the near future?

edit your /etc/my.cnf or wherever my.cnf and restart mysql after the edit, and give this a shot, not mine, it's from the CentOS bootstrap over at freevps.us

[mysqld] default-storage-engine = myisam key_buffer = 1M query_cache_size = 1M query_cache_limit = 128k max_connections=25 thread_cache=1 skip-innodb query_cache_min_res_unit=0 tmp_table_size = 1M max_heap_table_size = 1M table_cache=256 concurrent_insert=2 max_allowed_packet = 1M sort_buffer_size = 64K read_buffer_size = 256K read_rnd_buffer_size = 256K net_buffer_length = 2K thread_stack = 64K

Here some about optimizing http://tuxlite.com/lnmp-readme/

Wunderbar

In /etc/nginx/nginx.conf

worker_processes 1;

and in /etc/php5/fpm/pool.d/www.conf

pm = ondemand

That should save a lot of RAM

Looks like you're using OVZ. Sometimes free doesn't accurately reflect OVZ memory usage. Try using htop instead. Free -m reports my usage as 232 MB but htop reports 100MB including a 64MB apc cache.
