Re: FPM - fails high / low loads

changing php fpm config to the following allows me to have 4000-8000 concurrent connections at once and 0 failure rates.. after running numerous ab tests.. it is now in production and running 2 boxes side by side and accepting requests perfectly.. it's only about 30% ramped up due to proxy servers.. but hitting it with ab I was very stable. if anything thing changes I'll report back in this but all seems good thus far
