My server load shows Load Averages: 0.44 0.27 0.24, and Server load 0.41 (8 CPUs) I want to host more websites on this server. What do you people think, can the server handle more sites. What is the maximum load a server can handle? Give me tips. How to check server load and which parameter shows what. Please give me more details and knowledge relating to this.
This is very very low server load (no load at all) if you have that strong machine (8 CPUs) dont worry about load you can host alot of websites with it. Server load can be up to 100 per CPU and than your server will start to respond slow or stop responding. Simple reboot will make it online again. I have 3 servers and one is dual core only (2 CPU) and on that server i have game server, streaming server and 100 websites hosted and everything is working fine and fast without problems. Usually load is lover than 10%.
