that nginx setup will not work for XFS as XFS uses a custom perl mod in nginx

But if you run nginx for other things, those plugins will simplify the administration work.

That's what I was afraid of. Anything else recommended? Really don't want to pay 100's per server as I don't sell premiums and am pretty much ad-less for my image host.

if you run a image host, you really need nginx mod.

it will give a GREAT performance boost

Can't justify paying all that for something I do for fun only. Might look into Cherokee or light. Maybe if it was larger.

If you use direct linking, litespeed webserver might do a better job than apache

Yeah. A ton of direct linking. I've heard a lot of good about Cherokee recently.

i tried it a year ago, and it seems okey.

i recommend you try litespeed 4cpu version and add the cache system they have.

Your worst enemy is if system uses disk IO instead of memory cache.

(you can just install nginx to do the fileserving and apache on another port(cgi-bin on another port))

Nginx will not work out of the box with XFS.
You need a special config, and a perl script addon to make it work the right way.

The only thing that does not work is with using normal nginx as fileservers is allowing 1 ip per file link generated... as long as you keep cgi-bin for apache.
