Apache在配置編譯時可以自主的選擇想要使用的MPM模塊,使用./configure --with-mpm=MPM命令。我們主要了解prefork和worker這兩種MPM模塊。
Prefork如果不用“--with-mpm”顯式指定某種MPM,prefork就是Unix平臺上缺省的MPM。它所采用的預派生子進程方式,用單獨的子進程來處理不同的請求,進程之間彼此獨立。在make編譯和make install安裝后,使用httpd -l來確定當前使用的MPM是prefork.c。查看httpd-mpm.conf配置文件,里面包含如下默認的配置段:
代碼如下<IfModule prefork.c>StartServers 5MinSpareServers 5MaxSpareServers 10MaxClients 150MaxRequestsPerChild 0</IfModule>
prefork控制進程在最初建立“StartServers”個子進程后,為了滿足MinSpareServers設置的需要創建一個進程,等待一秒鐘,繼續創建兩個,再等待一秒鐘,繼續創建四個……如此按指數級增加創建的進程數,最多達到每秒32個,直到滿足MinSpareServers設置的值為止。這種模式可以不必在請求到來時再產生新的進程,從而減小了系統開銷以增加性能。MaxSpareServers設置了最大的空閑進程數,如果空閑進程數大于這個值,Apache會自動kill掉一些多余進程。這個值不要設得過大,但如果設的值比MinSpareServers小,Apache會自動把其調整為MinSpareServers+1。如果站點負載較大,可考慮同時加大MinSpareServers和MaxSpareServers。MaxRequestsPerChild設置的是每個子進程可處理的請求數。每個子進程在處理了“MaxRequestsPerChild”個請求后將自動銷毀。0意味著無限,即子進程永不銷毀。雖然缺省設為0可以使每個子進程處理更多的請求,但如果設成非零值也有兩點重要的好處:1、可防止意外的內存泄漏。2、在服務器負載下降的時侯會自動減少子進程數。因此,可根據服務器的負載來調整這個值。MaxClients是這些指令中最為重要的一個,設定的是Apache可以同時處理的請求,是對Apache性能影響最大的參數。其缺省值150是遠遠不夠的,如果請求總數已達到這個值(可通過ps -ef|grep http|wc -l來確認),那么后面的請求就要排隊,直到某個已處理請求完畢。這就是系統資源還剩下很多而HTTP訪問卻很慢的主要原因。雖然理論上這個值越大,可以處理的請求就越多,但Apache默認的限制不能大于256。ServerLimit指令無須重編譯Apache就可以加大MaxClients。ServerLimt應該放在第一個位置,放在其他指令之間不起作用(不明白原因)。
代碼如下<IfModule prefork.c>ServerLimit 10000StartServers 5MinSpareServers 5MaxSpareServers 10MaxClients 10000MaxRequestsPerChild 0</IfModule>
Worker相對于prefork,worker全新的支持多線程和多進程混合模型的MPM。由于使用線程來處理,所以可以處理相對海量的請求,而系統資源的開銷要小于基于進程的服務器。但是,worker也使用了多進程,每個進程又生成多個線程,以獲得基于進程服務器的穩定性。在configure --with-mpm=worker后,進行make編譯、make install安裝。在缺省生成的httpd-mpm.conf中有以下默認配置段:
代碼如下<IfModule worker.c>StartServers 2MaxClients 150MinSpareThreads 25MaxSpareThreads 75ThreadsPerChild 25MaxRequestsPerChild 0</IfModule>
Worker由主控制進程生成“StartServers”個子進程,每個子進程中包含固定的ThreadsPerChild線程數,各個線程獨立地處理請求。同樣,為了不在請求到來時再生成線程,MinSpareThreads和MaxSpareThreads設置了最少和最多的空閑線程數;而MaxClients設置了同時連入的clients最大總數。如果現有子進程中的線程總數不能滿足負載,控制進程將派生新的子進程。MinSpareThreads和MaxSpareThreads的最大缺省值分別是75和250。這兩個參數對Apache的性能影響并不大,可以按照實際情況相應調節。ThreadsPerChild是worker MPM中與性能相關最密切的指令。ThreadsPerChild的最大缺省值是64,如果負載較大,64也是不夠的。這時要顯式使用ThreadLimit指令,它的最大缺省值是20000。Worker模式下所能同時處理的請求總數是由子進程總數乘以ThreadsPerChild值決定的,應該大于等于MaxClients。如果負載很大,現有的子進程數不能滿足時,控制進程會派生新的子進程。默認最大的子進程總數是16,加大時也需要顯式聲明ServerLimit(最大值是20000)。需要注意的是,如果顯式聲明了ServerLimit,那么它乘以ThreadsPerChild的值必須大于等于MaxClients,而且MaxClients必須是ThreadsPerChild的整數倍,否則Apache將會自動調節到一個相應值。
代碼如下<IfModule worker.c>ServerLimit 25ThreadLimit 200StartServers 3MaxClients 2000MinSpareThreads 50MaxSpareThreads 200ThreadsPerChild 100MaxRequestsPerChild 0</IfModule>
下面是利用Apache自帶的測試工具ab對Server進行測試的情況(設定請求的index頁面為6bytes,Apache Server配置2cpu 2G memory),cpu%為cpu占用率,mem為內存使用量(M為單位),RequestsPerSecond為每秒處理的請求數。1、Prefor方式 (ServerLimit,StartServer,MinSpareServers,MaxSpareServers,MaxClients,MaxRequestPerChild)
-n/-c(ab參數) Cpu% Mem Requestspersecond(-,5,5,10,150,0)100000/100 28.8 285 8434100000/200 29.2 304 8032100000/500 25.3 323 7348100000/1000 24.4 330 5886(10000,5,5,10,500,0)100000/100 28.7 371 8345100000/200 27.4 389 7929100000/500 24.9 417 7229100000/1000 23.4 437 6676(10000,5,5,10,1000,0)100000/100 28.8 408 8517100000/200 27.0 422 8045100000/500 24.2 455 7236100000/1000 22.5 470 6570(10000,5,5,10,1500,0)100000/100 29.6 330 8407100000/200 28.1 349 8014100000/500 26.4 380 7290100000/1000 24.0 400 6686
2、Worker方式(ServerLimt,Threadlimt,Startservers,MaxClients,MinspareThread,MaxspareThread,ThreadperChild,MaxRequestPerChild)
-n/-c(ab參數) cpu% mem RequestsperSecond(50,500,5,10000,50,200,200,0)100000/100 18.6 188 6020100000/200 20.1 195 5892100000/500 19.8 209 5708100000/1000 22.2 218 6081(100,500,5,10000,50,200,100,0)100000/100 24.5 240 6919100000/200 23.6 247 6798100000/500 24.6 254 6827100000/1000 22.3 271 6114(200,500,5,10000,50,200,50,0)100000/100 27.3 301 7781100000/200 27.4 307 7789100000/500 26.0 320 7141100000/1000 21.8 344 6110
相對來說,prefork方式速度要稍高于worker,然而它需要的cpu和memory資源也稍多于woker。
