如何使用Nginx缓存加速WordPRess网站

六月 8, 2020

博客开通以来，主要记录学习和使用过程中遇到的问题及解决方案。文章风格偏向自娱自乐，因此访问量较少，一台1核1G的vps足以支撑网站的正常运行。

后来本站引入三个页面，这三个页面应该对有上外网需求的网友很有帮助，也给本站带来了很大的流量。本站用的WordPress程序，尝试过安装各种缓存插件（super cache, w3 total cache等）加速运行，但是低配的vps依然难以支持这么大的访问量。通过日志可以看到随着访问量的增加，php-fpm进程增多，Mysql的连接和线程增多，接着出现OOM，然后系统kill掉占用内存最大的Mysql进程，于是网站进入503宕机模式。

买更好的vps能解决访问量大的问题，但是要花更多的钱。做为一个技术宅，首先想到的当然是如何榨干现有机器来支撑大流量。做过的尝试包括切换到比WordPress性能更好的Ghost，参考：尝试Ghost 。但是相对于WordPress，Ghost的生态远没有那么成熟，最终放弃了。

左思右想下，终极解决办法是用Nginx缓存，最初的文章可参考：Nginx配置fastcgi cache。fastcgi_cache的好处是大部分用户的请求不用后端php-fpm打交道，直接发送缓存的静态页面，速度上甩各种WordPress插件好几条街！相比之下wordpress的各种插件还要执行php，也避免不了访问数据库，弱爆了！

自从使用了nginx缓存，网站平稳运行，再也没有出现过宕机的现象。同时vps的cpu和内存占用率直线下降，再也无需担心vps的配置问题，感觉再来10倍流量博客也撑得住！

因为nginx稳如狗的体验，所以现在对于博客类读多写少的产品都是强推nginx缓存（fastcgi缓存或者proxy缓存）。鉴于可能帮到一些网友，现贴出 /etc/nginx/nginx.conf 配置文件供网友参考（包含ssl设置和gzip部分）：
