<div dir="ltr"><div>Another vote up for php-fpm here</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I converted slowly over last 2 weeks by patching php5.2.6 and using it with nginx0.6.31</div>
<div> </div>
<div>But yea documentation is kinda short but not really required as such, I know russian as is so wasnt too bad :p</div>
<div> </div>
<div> </div>
<div>My experience is very positive</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Previous Setup:</div>
<div>*3x servers with lighttpd1.4.19 for php</div>
<div>*25x servers with nginx0.6.31 for file downloads via x-sendfile and file uploads via lighttpd1.5+mod_uploadprogress (im waiting for the nginx uploadprogress module to be more stable)<br></div>
<div>New setup</div>
<div>
<div>*3x servers with nginx0.6.31 and php-fpm patch for php5.2.6</div>
<div>*25x servers remain same</div>
<div> </div>
<div> </div>
<div>Before the php processes used to go gaga resulting in http 500 errors, also when i tryied killing them via "killall lighttpd && killall php-cgi" some of the php processes would stick around and i had to manually kill -9 them. now php-fpm takes care of all that, so reliabilty improved markedly</div>
<div> </div>
<div>What can i say i am very happy with this patch! and i hope it ends up in the default php setup</div>
<div> </div>
<div> </div>
<div>Regards</div></div>

<br>I read on this list about php-fpm and intended to try it out, but because what I had worked, I only did so yesterday. When I did, I was delighted to see how much more neatly it does everything I'd done in my scripts, as well as providing excellent additions such as signal support for useful functions and a fix for the "blank 200 page" problem.<br>
<br>Given how well it apparently runs in much more heavily-loaded environments than mine, I'm going to try this out on the next available project, and I suspect I'll be using it from now on. Thanks to Andrei for writing it, and to everyone who championed it. Shame I didn't get round to it earlier.<br>
