After a brief moodle outage here, during the worst time of year to have an outage mind you, I've been looking into how to make our moodle install more resilient to: 
<ul><li>a) finals week</li><li>b) load in general</li></ul>


Back to the <a href="http://www.moodle.org">moodle</a> forums turned up some fun stuff. 


I located a pretty slick psudo plugin that gives you some interesting <del>statistics</del> lies to use in approximating your moodle capabilities. The plugin indicates 
that these numbers really don't mean a whole lot but hey its something. And its quick.


So now I'm tinkering with different settings and running this little utility. Here's some of the outcome. Remember this is our test install which is a very minimal setup in vmland.  [...] ]]></description>

<p><b>Initial Run</b></p>

<p><b>APC tuning and memcache</b></p>

<p>I think this will be a fun little utility in the coming year...</p>]]></content:encoded>
