I believe as above hosted locally , the long green delay is actually the home page of the website. May i know what causes those delay? Magento is a very CPU intense monster, is it due to the fact that its waiting for the server to respond due to lack of cpu power?
I did load test on different website before to study how server works, as i'm new to server hosting and optimizing. I personally use amazon and i understand amazon has their limit, i tested my server stress test and it would react in 0.5 seconds with 30 concurrent users, Micro instance, apache, varnish , compressed js and img, images from S3(CDN) and the load time only shoots up from 0.5 seconds to 1min ! at 31st concurrent user. Why does the shoot happens? It feels like it cannot take users when its stressed.
Where as the other site that i tested , the image above is one example , no matter how stress it is , from 20-50+ users, its load time is 1min(from overseas connection) locally i tested its 30 seconds.
I did check on other website too, some are hosted on share hosting, and they are able to take stress and function when its overloaded. It just react in 1min, for my case, amazon, it can even hit 3-4 mins when its stressed.
May i know how do i have this "Maxinum load time no matter how stress it is, not NO Matter but to a larger extend" What should i be looking at. *PS if i increase my Micro instance to Small instance, it can take only an additional 10 concurrent users, which isnt a big difference but when it come to cost, its a hell lots of a difference.
Any other knowledge would be totally appreciative, i'm here to learn and to help in future. Thank you for this platform.
