In Droplet>Graphs, there are disk write and read information such as 3MB/s, and there is CPU usage for sys and user such as %20.
What should these rates be at maximum, to handle visitors without causing slowness? Can you give some examples please?
I might get a lot of visitors soon and I want to be ready beforehand. My current droplet:
512 MB / 1 CPU 20 GB SSD Disk 1000 GB Transfer
I’m running Lamp stack on Ubuntu 14.04, using PHP and MySQL only.
