How are your disks hosting the database configured? Are you certain that there's a performance problem locally? Are you seeing the network connection becoming saturated?

2000 hits/day is just barely over 1/min doesn't seem the system's really being taxed. What's the peak look like?

I'm guessing that you have everything sitting out on that SSD. At some point, despite its lightning fast access speed, it's going to be a bottleneck. If you think there's a performance problem now, throwing additional cores at the single storage device will, I suspect, become a problem.

(Caveat: I'm still a spinning rust guy and the more spindles the better so maybe my suspicions are colored by that.)

If the network connection is saturated -- even if it's only periodically -- more CPU won't help.

Until you're certain where any performance bottlenecks lie, I think it's premature to start throwing more CPU at any perceived problem.

Just my US$0.02...

For a quick check, try iptraf (https://packages.debian.org/stretch/iptraf). Why looking around I stumbled on this (ancient) article on generating gnuplot graphs from iptraf data: https://www.zdnet.com/article/traffi...r-free-part-2/.

Agreed...unless you are experiencing performance issues or hearing of any user complaints I wouldn't worry just yet.

Not too long ago, I downloaded a network tool called Monitorix on my Debian home file server. It has all kinds of graphs that show CPU usage, network usage, disk, etc. Another big name monitoring tool is nagios. Check either one of those out to get an idea how your system is doing.
