Hi everyone, I’ve been experimenting with building a high-performance dynamic CMS using PHP 8 and MariaDB 10, designed to run on a single-core VPS with 1GB RAM. Some interesting observations: Even on low-end hosting, the CMS can handle 100,000+ concurrent requests without performance degradation. Using proper query optimization, caching strategies, and lightweight templates makes a big difference. The CMS architecture allows fast project development while maintaining security and code quality. The system can behave like a static HTML site in terms of perceived speed, despite being fully dynamic. I’ve also shared the project source code on GitHub for anyone interested in exploring or testing: 🔗 GitHub Repository https://github.com/shonirits/SHO... And there’s a live demo available to experience performance firsthand: 🌐 Live Demo https://8.shonir.com/shonir-cms/ I’m curious to know: What strategies do you use in CodeIgniter to handle extremely high traffic on minimal server resources? Any tips for optimizing PHP 8 + MariaDB performance in such environments? How do you balance dynamic content with server load for large-scale requests? I’d love to hear about other developers’ experiences and best practices in this area. Thanks in advance!
