Hi,
I just build php 5.5.0RC2 in F19.
A quite interesting change was introduce in this version.
php-fpm now collaborate with systemd (work in type=notify) and will report about its health via "systemctl status php-fpm" giving
- number of process (active + idle) - number of request (total + slow) - current traffic (req/sec since last refresh).
Ex: Status: "Processes active: 1, idle: 5, Requests: 765, slow: 2, Traffic: 3.4req/sec"
Refresh interval is configurable using "systemd_interval" new option in php-fpm.conf. (systemd WatchDogSec is also honored, but this will require more tests to find a good config.)
Please, give it a try (and karma)
Remi.
P.S. : we'll probably have another RC, and I still hope final 5.5.0 will available, at least as a 0day update.
