Do you guys use nginx or Apache as a backend? If you use nginx, one thing that might help is to connect nginx with memcached to retrieve guest pages from memcache, and then have the print_output function just write pages into cache for guests. It's a little tricky to setup, but it helps cut down hits to PHP-FPM which in turn helps with those pesky 502s. :)

We can't accept PayPal on this site (they won't let us), but if you every wanted to gift an account on a DDL file hosting site to your favorite staffer, they would really appreciate it. We're all big fans of the stuff that gets shared here. :please:

retrieve guest pages from memcache
Thanks for the suggestion. Our server is already cached to the hilt, especially for guests (we use Varnish, though, not memcache.)

the formatting toolbar is missing, please check
Where is that? Not sure what you mean.

Ahh, good choice in Varnish. :) Course, the problem with a big site is that while, yes there are lots of guests, there are also more members too - and it's hard to cache dynamic pages. It's possible though, but not without hacking vBulletin to pieces like I have done. :)

Keep up the good work and if you need any advice or suggestions on hosting, server setup, caching and all that jazz, drop me a line. :) (I'm a system engineer by trade who also happens to run a very popular site on the side)
