it is 8 core 32gb ram server. loas is less than 1.
how to increase the limit?`

Firstly, welcome to the forums.

While we are primarily here to help people with their Free Code Camp progress, we are open to people on other paths, too. Some of what you are asking is pretty trivial in the Free Code Camp context, so you might find that if you’re not getting the instruction and material you need in your current studies, the FCC curriculum will really help you get started. At a modest guess I’d say investing a 4-5 hours working through the curriculum here will really pay off. You can find the curriculum at https://freecodecamp.org.

With your current questions, we don’t have enough context to know what you already know or don’t know, so it is impossible to guide you without just telling you the answer (which we won’t do).

Please provide some example of what you’ve tried and I’m sure you’ll get more help.

Happy coding :slight_smile:

I don’t have much knowledge in server. I am running a static website with nginx. It exactly reaches 500 requisitions per second. Sometime it suddenly goes to 1500 requests and the system halts. I need to manually restart the nginx.

I tried to tweaks nginx and sysctl.conf
Please give me some solution.
I think you are proving great training. Do I need to take them from beginning? Can I jump to advance level?

Thanks for providing some more information.

First off, I don’t know the solution, and if I did, I wouldn’t just give it to you without explaining why it worked.

Let me rephrase what I said above. We are the freeCodeCamp forum. We primarily help people with freeCodeCamp projects. While myself and others might have some basic knowledge of nginx, most people here don’t know about it or how to help you with your issue. I would suggest trying some forums that specify in apache/nginx, or try searching StackOverflow for help.

I am not sure what you mean…
