HIGH CPU usage by PHP on a VPS Magento Server
- by Anil
My server running magento is 4gb ram and 4 core cpu. But still i am struggling with the high CPU usage. I only have 10 visitors at any given point of time. I am not sure if the PHP has to take this high % CPU usage. Attached is the TOP result.
