my server was under a high load, and the load is not off of it. my cache is still at 47%, and there are no programs running. I have linux suse 10.0 how do i clear the cache. anything that i can do to speed up everything....besides running in console mode? also, is there a way to set how much cache is allowed?
look around for cache enable in httpd.conf. You can clear the cache in /var/cache/httpd
mod_cache is resposible for the cache.
these are the actual modules though, i think. I'm not at a box running httpd right now
apache-mod_disk_cache
apache-mod_cache
apache-mod_proxy
right, I think there may be a couple of lines like below in there
# To enable the cache as well, edit and uncomment the following lines:
# (no cacheing without CacheRoot)
#
#CacheRoot "/var/cache/apache2"
#CacheSize 5
#CacheGcInterval 4
#CacheMaxExpire 24
#CacheLastModifiedFactor 0.1
#CacheDefaultExpire 1
for the time being, i would restart apache, that should clear the cache. Maybe google around or search here for setting up the cache or something. I'm really at a loss
lol...ok i rebooted the server, and it helped a little. i really appreciate your help. I do have a question though.... do you know of any bandwidth monitoring tools that i can use? something that will work in KDE or some kind of graphical user interface?
