NGINX tuning for best performance

NGINX Tuning For Best Performance

For this configuration you can use web server you like, i decided, because i work mostly with it to use nginx.

Generally, properly configured nginx can handle up to 400K to 500K requests per second (clustered), most what i saw is 50K to 80K (non-clustered) requests per second and 30% CPU load, course, this was 2 x Intel Xeon with HyperThreading enabled, but it can work without problem on slower machines.

You must understand that this config is used in testing environment and not in production so you will need to find a way to implement most of those features best possible for your servers.

Install FFmpeg on a Linux Box

Install FFmpeg via CLI on Linux box

These steps walk through installing a static binary of any ffmpeg version on to your linux machine. If you want to compile from source, there are several ways to do so. Here's the official guide. Tested and works on an AWS EC2 Ubuntu instance, but should work on any Linux machine.

  • SSH into your instance and become root

Download an entire website for offline use with wget. Internal inks will be corrected so that the entire downloaded site will work as it did online.

The best way to download a website for offline use, using wget

There are two ways - the first way is just one command run plainly in front of you; the second one runs in the background and in a different instance so you can get out of your ssh session and it will continue.

First make a folder to download the websites to and begin your downloading: (note if downloading www.SOME_WEBSITE.com, you will get a folder like this: /websitedl/www.SOME_WEBSITE.com/)
