D.5 Tuning Parameters and Performance

The primary parameter for controlling the performance of the Chili!Soft ASP engine is the MaxProcesses parameter. In internal Chili!Soft testing, a MaxProcesses setting of 7 processes yielded the best performance under almost all circumstances. NOTE: multi-process mode is not available on Linux.
 
For customers that are able to add additional servers, running Chili!Soft ASP in Multi-Machine Chili!Soft ASP
 
In certain cases, you may wish to locate your Web server and Chili!Soft ASP on separate physical machines. Or perhaps, you may wish to locate one or more Web servers on one set of machines, with a set of Chili!Soft ASP servers on another set of machines. Configurations like this are called multi-machine Chili!Soft ASP.
 
Running Chili!Soft ASP in a multi-machine configuration can provide improved performance in many cases, and can allow you to add additional servers as additional capacity is needed. Furthermore, the Chili!Soft ASP engine(s) running on separate machines from the Web server can allow you to better distribute and control the load on each of your servers, depending on the task(s) they are performing.
 
For complete details on configuring and running multi-machine Chili!Soft ASP, see Chapter 3: Configuration.
 
configuration gives you another option for enhancing Chili!Soft ASP performance.
