It just shows the number of open file handles by PID number…I think memory handles are counted.
I still have crashing issues…I don’t know why no one else seems to.
Specifically, the cache files from the wordpress sites I have create a large number of open files. This leads to the “too many open files error”. The wordpress site does have about 14k posts, but not a lot of traffic. With OpenLiteSpeed the cache crawler is always on.
Also the cache does not really delete items it just marks them expired. So I get about a week.
this shows the number of cache items:
lsof -n -l +D ‘/usr/local/lsws/cachedata’ | wc -l
I know that Cpanel sets the cache file number very high…but I have yet to get something working.
The newer OLS also has a system that leaves some workers open after a restart of LSWS…for a more seemless restart. But this has caused the file limit even when running a cron to restart LSWS.
The “too many open files” issue causes PID errors, Certificate errors, 503 errors, 500 errors…pretty much making all users unhappy.
