| Posted by geekwithlens, 01-12-2013, 10:25 AM | | I have OpenVZ VPS. I have 512 mb guranteed ram and burstable to 1 GB RAM.
My control panel shows that I am using 523 ram of 1 GB that is 51 % which is quite high for a new site with zero traffic.
Here is my cp stat: http://i.imgur.com/1jpd0.jpg
My server config is Nginx + PHP-FPM + MySQL + Varnish on Ubuntu 11.04 LTS (Minimal Template)
MySQL was eating around 350 MB. I reduced it by twice by disabling innodb but it messed my wordpress site. So I restarted innodb.
By using top command in ssh I generated memory usage stat: http://pastebin.com/BYhFcB0J
Please help me to reduce my memory usage. I will post any config file if required.
Thanks, HJ

This is not good in VPS.
Make sure to look at nginx config also, processes, etc...

| Posted by geekwithlens, 01-12-2013, 10:33 AM | | I enabled it again as it messed my existing wp site.

Generally speaking, InnoDB is a huge problem, it requires more RAM and it is impossible to backup/restore InnoDB MySQL tables, so do not ever use it. Better prefer MyISAM.
Regarding the RAM usage, what is the memory limit set in your php.ini

| Posted by geekwithlens, 01-12-2013, 10:53 AM | | Thank you. Can you also tell me how can I convert them since I dont have phpmyadmin installed? I use ssh to use mysql. What will be the command for it?

(where database_name = the name of your wordpress database)
Then for each table you have to run this command:
(where table_name is the name of the table)

This can give significant memory savings depending on how many threads your apps run. A practical example: http://www.lowendbox.com/blog/reduce...i-thread-apps/
