Adjusting child processes for PHP-FPM (Nginx)

When setting these options consider the following:

• How long is your average request?
• What is the maximum number of simultaneous visitors the site(s) get?
• How much memory on average does each child process consume?

Determine if the max_children limit has been reached.

• sudo grep max_children /var/log/php?.?-fpm.log.1 /var/log/php?.?-fpm.log

# This is something that I always forget and had a surprisingly hard time finding (or better yet, understanding).  Here's the
# scenario: a colleague creates a new kubernetes cluster, named" cluster-foo.example.com".  You want to look at it (for 
# troubleshooting, updating the deployment, whatever).  To get your kubectl installation to "see" the new cluster, take the 
# following steps:

# ASSUMPTION:  You have pointed kops to some location where the cluster configurations are stored 
# (I have this in my ~/.bash_profile):
export KOPS_STATE_STORE=s3://example-state-store

# Use kops to get the list of clusters

Encoding high-quality HEVC content in a two-pass manner with FFmpeg - based NVENC encoder on supported hardware:

If you've built ffmpeg as instructed here on Linux and the ffmpeg binary is in your path, you can do fast HEVC encodes as shown below, using NVIDIA's NPP's libraries to vastly speed up the process.

Now, to do a simple NVENC encode in 1080p, (that will even work for Maxwell Gen 2 (GM200x) series), start with:

ffmpeg  -i <inputfile> -pass 1 \
-filter:v hwupload_cuda,scale_npp=w=1920:h=1080:format=nv12:interp_algo=lanczos,hwdownload,format=nv12 \

-c:v hevc_nvenc -profile main -preset slow -rc vbr_2pass \

FWIW: I (@rondy) am not the creator of the content shared here, which is an excerpt from Edmond Lau's book. I simply copied and pasted it from another location and saved it as a personal note, before it gained popularity on news.ycombinator.com. Unfortunately, I cannot recall the exact origin of the original source, nor was I able to find the author's name, so I am can't provide the appropriate credits.
