| * Check the real time stats for the number of PHP processes during peak time(LSWS Web Admin -> Actions -> Real-Time Stats->External Application), check "In Use", "Idle", and "WaitQ". If WaitQ is frequently higher than 0, the PHP max concurrency setting may need to be increased. For shared hosting environments, where PHP SuEXEC is normally used, **PHP suEXEC Max Conn** needs to be increased. See our **[[litespeed_wiki:php:concurrency|PHP Concurrency wiki]]** for more information on determining if PHP SuEXEC is used and how to increase the max concurrency of PHP. | * Check the real time stats for the number of PHP processes during peak time(LSWS Web Admin -> Actions -> Real-Time Stats->External Application), check "In Use", "Idle", and "WaitQ".

| * Have you enabled the timezonedb module for your PHP? We do see poorer performance when people move to a cloud server with shared storage, the I/O latency could cause trouble. Without PHP timezonedb module with built-in DB, it may not have a huge impact on a server with the local disk but it will be very costly for a cloud server with shared storage since PHP will scan hundreds of directories. | * Have you enabled the timezonedb module for your PHP?

| Addressing any of the above may improve the performance of your server. However, performance issues may be related to something entirely different. Your situation may vary greatly, because of this, we recommend ordering our **[[https://store.litespeedtech.com/store/cart.php?gid=5|LiteSpeed premium support service]]** for a professional review, fine tuning, and installation/enabling of necessary elements to optimize your server and maximize site performance. | Addressing any of the above may improve the performance of your server.
