Memory Usage


Recommended Posts

We have a dedicated VPS server Linux - Plesk

 

On the server we have 2 websites prestashop in development, sometimes the websites are fast (in browser) and sometimes very very slow

 

We just noticed the following and we supposed that this could be the problem

 

Memory Usage

- Total: 236,06 MB

- Used: 232,46 MB

- Free: 3,61 MB

- Shared: 0 MB

- Buffer: 1,72 MB

- Cached: 45,03 MB

 

We think that the Used memory is very high? Could this be the cause of slow websites? How can we solve this problem?

 

Any Idea

 

Thanks in advance

I think just u have some cache on server like nginx and ur memory will be all time full bc ur site go cache right in memory, bc from memory u receive site data more faster then from HDD. I got on my server 5gb memory and it's full all time!

 

How much memory u need? Check how much space on HDD used prestashop. My prestashop folder size is over 3gb. So for faster site work u need some cache like nginx and on 20-30% memory more.
