Ningx is a great web server, working with static content, it is a great option to serve .css .js and .html files.

Hi,

I run it on many of my own personal boxes, and it seems to be doing fine - ofc, with less overhead :D

Go for it.

Cheers,

But I can run with this all the sites ?
With Ioncube, mysql, mysqli etc?
Also, how hard is to install nginx?

Regards.

nginx is better if you know how to run it.otherwise it can be a nightmare esp with cloudflare and other addidtions.

OK,
Thanks for all your answers, I think that I'll get off from that.

If you are running cPanel the most simple way to install & configure nGinx would be using nGinx Admin CP http://nginxcp.com/

It is a great tool i would suggest using fCGI as the apache handler how ever

But I don't know how to use it :\

Try Cherokee, its good and fast, it also has a GUI Admin Panel to manage it and config it !

Do you want to install nginx with php-fpm or nginx as reverse proxy? You have to know what you want first
