Apache on Ubuntu very slow on inital calls, very fast afterwards
- by papakost
I own an Ubuntu 10 VPS Server with Apache 2 hosting a Magento website. The first hit to the site from any client takes about 15-20 sec, while the subsequent hits from the same client take 0-1 sec. I suppose it doesn't have to do with Magento caching, because this happens also when the first call is on a very light page and the next calls are on heavy ones.
Does anyone have an idea on what is going wrong here?
