Hi there,
Was hoping someone might have some suggestions on reducing loads.
We're running vbulletin 3.6.x with the Thanks and Show friends on profile hacks.
2,000,000+ posts, 45,000+ users.
We've disabled anything that might affect performance in the core VB settings. At 350 users online we run with loads of roughly 5.0 - 5.0 - 5.0 on average, but anything above that seems to occasionally cause spikes, sometimes as high as 40.0 which slows everything down for a few minutes.
Search is disabled for guests. I think we're still running boolean search, so I'm guessing switching to full text might help. Apart from that, does anyone have any suggestions?
Data usage is 2.5GB, Index 250MB (although we need to reindex), Linux server, MySQL 5.0.21, PHP 4.3.11.
Thanks in advance!
