NGINX Tuning For Best Performance

For this configuration you can use web server you like, i decided, because i work mostly with it to use nginx.

Generally, properly configured nginx can handle up to 400K to 500K requests per second (clustered), most what i saw is 50K to 80K (non-clustered) requests per second and 30% CPU load, course, this was 2 x Intel Xeon with HyperThreading enabled, but it can work without problem on slower machines.

You must understand that this config is used in testing environment and not in production so you will need to find a way to implement most of those features best possible for your servers.

Generation of a Self Signed Certificate

Generation of a self-signed SSL certificate involves a simple 3-step procedure:

STEP 1: Create the server private key

openssl genrsa -out cert.key 2048

STEP 2: Create the certificate signing request (CSR)

openssl req -new -key cert.key -out cert.csr

Ignore all that craziness below.  These can be set from the cli with the "pritunl" command.

The commands below can be used to get/set the values of the cert, key, port and if the :80 -> "app.server_port" redirect is active.


# Get current SSL server cert:
pritunl get app.server_cert

# Get current SSL server key:
pritunl get app.server_key
