I’m using CentOS release 5.5 (Final)
nginx-0.9.3
remi yum rpms for php-fpm, php, and php-apc
My php-fpm setting are near default except for spawn child numbers.
The server is used for no other purpose other than niginx + php-fpm and
gets
about 2 millions hits on a very heavy duty php script per day.
(DB server is seperate)
iostat shows

sdb is the hard drive with the web files and sda5 is /tmp
ls -alh /tmp
total 40K

If nginx is stopped the load on sda5 goes away.
Is there any reason /tmp should have such a heavy write load without any
files in it?
nginx virtual host conf
location ~ .(php|html|htm)$ {
proxy_read_timeout 180;
proxy_connect_timeout 120;
proxy_send_timeout 180;
proxy_buffers 32 4k;
proxy_max_temp_file_size 0;
fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:9000;
fastcgi_index index.php;
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME /[DELETED MY
HOME]$fastcgi_script_name;
include /usr/local/nginx/conf/fastcgi_params;
}
fastcgi_params
default values with the following
fastcgi_connect_timeout 60;
fastcgi_send_timeout 180;
fastcgi_read_timeout 180;
fastcgi_buffer_size 128k;
fastcgi_buffers 4 256k;
fastcgi_busy_buffers_size 256k;
fastcgi_temp_file_write_size 256k;
fastcgi_intercept_errors on;

Thanks.
