OPcache settings for wordpress nginx php-fpm ubuntu

 

Opcache
storing precompiled script bytecode in shared memory,

APC/APCu

robust framework caching and optimizing PHP intermediate code

Memcached

high-performance, distributed memory object caching system

redis
in-memory data structure store, used as a database, cache and message broker.

 

how to Enable opcode cache PHP 7

 

sudo nano /etc/php/7.2/fpm/php.ini

;opcache.enable=0

to
opcache.enable=1

or

sudo phpenmod opcache

configuration settings

opcache.enable=1

opcache.memory_consumption=128

opcache.max_accelerated_files=200

opcache_revalidate_freq = 240

opcache.error_log= /var/log/nginx/opcahce_error.log

opcache.file_cache=/var/www/html/.opcache;

sudo service php7.2-fpm restart

 

checking module status

php -m

[Zend Modules]
Zend OPcache

enable : sudo phpenmod opcache

 

 

Optional  2nd layer caching when shared memory is full

sudo mkdir /var/www/html/.opcache

chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www/html/.opcache

opcache.file_cache=/var/www/html/.opcache;

 

RAM: allocate memory based on your server RAM  performance-versus-RAM trade-off.

opcache.memory_consumption=128

number of scripts that can be cached

opcache.max_accelerated_files=200

or

opcache.max_accelerated_files=0

unlimited

 

,  revalidate frequency (based on how long PHP code changes) in WordPress may set for a long time

opcache_revalidate_freq = 240  //seconds

 

sudo service nginx restart

 

or

sudo service php7.2-fpm restart

 

opcache.revalidate_freq=0   disable cache expiry check until php-fpm restarts

opcache.validate_timestamps=0  when this enable abvoe option works

opcache.max_accelerated_files=7963   you can check how much amount of php files in your directory availble for executing this command (find /var/www/html/ -iname *.php|wc -l)

opcache.memory_consumption=192  (amount of shared memory fromyour serer ram)

opcache.interned_strings_buffer=16   (RAM for strings to cache them as array)

opcache.fast_shutdown=1  (enables fast  reset of cache)

 

[opcache]
; Determines if Zend OPCache is enabled
opcache.enable=1

; Determines if Zend OPCache is enabled for the CLI version of PHP
;opcache.enable_cli=0

; The OPcache shared memory storage size.
opcache.memory_consumption=200

; The amount of memory for interned strings in Mbytes.
opcache.interned_strings_buffer=16

; The maximum number of keys (scripts) in the OPcache hash table.
; Only numbers between 200 and 1000000 are allowed.
opcache.max_accelerated_files=2000

; The maximum percentage of “wasted” memory until a restart is scheduled.
opcache.max_wasted_percentage=5

; When this directive is enabled, the OPcache appends the current working
; directory to the script key, thus eliminating possible collisions between
; files with the same name (basename). Disabling the directive improves
; performance, but may break existing applications.
;opcache.use_cwd=1

; When disabled, you must reset the OPcache manually or restart the
; webserver for changes to the filesystem to take effect.
opcache.validate_timestamps=1

; How often (in seconds) to check file timestamps for changes to the shared
; memory storage allocation. (“1” means validate once per second, but only
; once per request. “0” means always validate)
opcache.revalidate_freq=240

; Enables or disables file search in include_path optimization
;opcache.revalidate_path=0

; If disabled, all PHPDoc comments are dropped from the code to reduce the
; size of the optimized code.
;opcache.save_comments=1

; If enabled, a fast shutdown sequence is used for the accelerated code
; Depending on the used Memory Manager this may cause some incompatibilities.
opcache.fast_shutdown=1

; Allow file existence override (file_exists, etc.) performance feature.
;opcache.enable_file_override=0

; A bitmask, where each bit enables or disables the appropriate OPcache
; passes
;opcache.optimization_level=0xffffffff

;opcache.inherited_hack=1
;opcache.dups_fix=0

; The location of the OPcache blacklist file (wildcards allowed).
; Each OPcache blacklist file is a text file that holds the names of files
; that should not be accelerated. The file format is to add each filename
; to a new line. The filename may be a full path or just a file prefix
; (i.e., /var/www/x blacklists all the files and directories in /var/www
; that start with ‘x’). Line starting with a ; are ignored (comments).
;opcache.blacklist_filename=

; Allows exclusion of large files from being cached. By default all files
; are cached.
;opcache.max_file_size=0

; Check the cache checksum each N requests.
; The default value of “0” means that the checks are disabled.
;opcache.consistency_checks=0

; How long to wait (in seconds) for a scheduled restart to begin if the cache
; is not being accessed.
;opcache.force_restart_timeout=180

; OPcache error_log file name. Empty string assumes “stderr”.
opcache.error_log=””

; All OPcache errors go to the Web server log.
; By default, only fatal errors (level 0) or errors (level 1) are logged.
; You can also enable warnings (level 2), info messages (level 3) or
; debug messages (level 4).
opcache.log_verbosity_level=2

; Preferred Shared Memory back-end. Leave empty and let the system decide.
;opcache.preferred_memory_model=

; Protect the shared memory from unexpected writing during script execution.
; Useful for internal debugging only.
;opcache.protect_memory=0

; Allows calling OPcache API functions only from PHP scripts which path is
; started from specified string. The default “” means no restriction
;opcache.restrict_api=

; Mapping base of shared memory segments (for Windows only). All the PHP
; processes have to map shared memory into the same address space. This
; directive allows to manually fix the “Unable to reattach to base address”
; errors.
;opcache.mmap_base=

; Enables and sets the second level cache directory.
; It should improve performance when SHM memory is full, at server restart or
; SHM reset. The default “” disables file based caching.
;opcache.file_cache=””

; Enables or disables opcode caching in shared memory.
;opcache.file_cache_only=0

; Enables or disables checksum validation when script loaded from file cache.
;opcache.file_cache_consistency_checks=1

; Implies opcache.file_cache_only=1 for a certain process that failed to
; reattach to the shared memory (for Windows only). Explicitly enabled file
; cache is required.
;opcache.file_cache_fallback=1

; Enables or disables copying of PHP code (text segment) into HUGE PAGES.
; This should improve performance, but requires appropriate OS configuration.
;opcache.huge_code_pages=1

; Validate cached file permissions.
;opcache.validate_permission=0

; Prevent name collisions in chroot’ed environment.
;opcache.validate_root=0

don’t restart php-fpm

restratingg ngin serer doesn’t take effct on php-fpm . so we hae to reload/ restart the php serer in nginxx.

 

service php7.0-fpm reload

service php7.0-fpm restart

start /stop/ status you can use these along with above two commands.
