I think you are probably not optimizing your data organization enough. =
Can you describe your data in some detail for us? Are you using raster =
or vector data? Are you "zoomed out" and trying to display a large =
amount of data on your small map, or are you displaying a small area?

Subject: [Mapserver-users] optimize mapserver
Hi list,
=20
I am a new user of Mapserv, and I'm trying to optimize the time of =
response of Mapserver CGI (from a user requests a map and the Apache =
renders the information to PNG and the user has the map). The maps are =
so small (176 x 176 pixels), and I think some things that could make the =
results were better. I probed the next things:
=20
-- create with shptree indexes in the SHP files --> a litle =
better results =20
-- works with PostgreSQL/Postgis --> more slow
-- upload the SHP files and the cgi mapserv to ramdisks --> a =
litle better results
=20
The next things that I think that I would make are:
=20
-- transforms CGI mapserv to a FAST-CGI=20
-- optimize the HTTPD.CONF of the Apache Server
=20
What dou you think??
=20
Thanks a lot
