This Saturday it was first time some of the Injoit team managed to get together for an outdoor event. Everybody had a great time and here are the photos of the fun we had. Click on the “Read more” button to check them.
On the way to Lyubotin, our destination place, we got stuck in a massive traffic jam which caused a delay of about 1 hour. I’ve later found out that this might have been due to road closures because of the Mosfilm filming a movie about Leo Landau, the famous physics scientist, in our city. Anyway, we had fun listening to music in our cars and finally got there.
Check one (of two) our Kharkov located office working rooms.
Place looks a little bit crowded but actually it has some free space area with flowers and tea which is behind the photographer
Meet happy Injoit team (at the photo: QA Alexander, PHP developer Vladimir and HTML coder Oleg)
Notice all the Krishna posters on the walls. With information technologies it’s always good to have someone to pray to get rid of the bugs
There is a card with a mantra placed on top of our local server machine. No kidding.
Wordpress might be heavy for your web server as it works a lot with MySQL database and has tons of scripts and plugins that run along.
This as simple script, add it to the footer.php of your Wordpress theme and you will get a line in the bottom with your SQL queries and generation time.
You may start to think of next steps if this values are not acceptable. What you could do, to start with, is:
1) get rid of unused and unnecessary plugins
2) install WP Cache or WP Super Cache plugins
3) add automated MySQL tables optimize script to your cron jobs
4) check your server configuration (php.ini, mysqld.conf) to find if the memory allocation and other settings are optimal
5) upgrade your server
Number 3 stays without attention very often however this is important. MySQL doesn’t optimize itself unlike Oracle. In a while, your DB, depending on its size and usage characteristics, gets fragmented making mysqld process to eat all your server resources. As result, your Wordpress powered website starts working really slowly. At Injoit.com we resolve this by installing additional mysql optimize script to the websites of our customers. Added to cron this script launched daily or weekly and does the job perfectly.
