Hi, I am trying to understand performance tuning a LAMP server for Magento version 2. Any help is much appreciated. Here is what I have and know so far. HARDWARE Dell laptop Intel(R) Core(TM) i3-4030U CPU @ 1.90GHz 2 cores and 4 threads 4G RAM 5400 RPM drive O/S Ubuntu 16.04.2 LTS (no x) This is configured as a server specifically for Magento PACKAGES Apache/2.4.18 (Ubuntu) PHP 7.0.15-0ubuntu0.16.04.4 with Zend OPcache v7.0.15-0ubuntu0.16.04.4 MySql 5.7.17-0ubuntu0.16.04.2 I set PHP memory_limit to 2G. It came set at 128k. This change by itself made a noticeable performance change. MAGENTO Magento ver. 2.1.6 with all cache turned off and placed in developer mode so it displays errors. No user, product, or sales data. When loading the home page it takes about 30 seconds. Top showed 27% CPU usage at the highest and KiB Mem : 3948648 total, 2967296 free, 344528 used, and load was at most .59. While loading the page, at the top of the process listing, the top two were www-data. At one point the top 4 were www-data. And at one point it showed 99% CPU usage for www-data. Based on Top, I assume the first bottleneck is the stock configuration of Apache. What I find perplexing is a 30+ second page load that does not peg the CPU for the entire time and run load up? I would think it would be using everything it has. What is stopping this from happening? Where is the throttle? What am I missing? Your thoughts are much appreciated? Thank you for all your help!!
