Varnish provides some tools to help you monitor and debug Varnish’ health.
One of those tools is varnishncsa. When you run it without arguments, it shows a real-time access log in the Apache combined log format.
That’s nice and can come in handy. But, it gets really interesting when you define your own format like this:
I’m running this blog on a small VPS with the help of Nginx and PHP-FPM.
But I noticed the site was not that fast as I wanted it to be.
This is mainly due to the little resources this VPS has. So every request needs to be as efficient as possible.
To make that possible, I want to cache the requests with Nginx to minimize the requests that needs to be handled by PHP-FPM.
