What's the difference between compact statistics and verbose statistics? Verbose statistics were the only kind of statistics phpAdsNew supported for
a long time, but since version 1.9 phpAdsNew now supports compact statistics
and the compact stats are even used by default. Compact statistics are faster
than verbose stats and take a lot less storage space on the MySQL server. There
is a drawback however, the compact stats are less accurate than the old verbose
stats, there are no hourly overviews for example. How can I speed up phpAdsNew? You can speed up phpAdsNew considerably by reducing the functionality. You
could disable multiple keywords and conditional keywords. You could enable 'delayed
inserts' as well, which should increase the speed of statistics logging. Other
things that influence the speed of phpAdsNew are reverse lookup, sequential
banner retrieval and banners stored in MySQL. If you really need to serve massive
amounts of banners you could try using multiple servers. It is possible to store
banners on an external ftp/webserver, use a different server for the MySQL database
and serve the ads from a different server as your webserver. It is even possible
to use multiple servers which all have phpAdsNew and MySQL installed and use
same database which is replicated over all the servers.
My MySQL server uses too many resources, what can I do? You can reduce the load on the MySQL server by storing banners on the webserver
instead of the MySQL server. It is also possible use 'delayed inserts' which
can be turned on in the configuration file. If phpAdsNew uses persistent connections
to the MySQL server you could try turning this off in the configuration file.
Persistent connections do speed up phpAdsNew, but increase the load on the MySQL
server.
Can you help me to install phpAdsNew? Can you please implement this feature
I need? Maybe. Let us know what you want...
