Hi,
I am wondering if I am able to run a webserver (Apache,MySql) for my wordpress blog and django site on 256 megs ram. Yes I know everything is possible however I wish to upgrade from shared hosting to a VPS (Slicehost or Linode I didn't decide yet....) and I am wondering if it will work out.
yes, sure. I have a P90/24mb running apache+postgres, however on a slightly outdated debian.

What type of traffic do you get? In general a VPS is going to be significantly better performance than shared hosting if you are only running 1 or 2 websites. That shared hosting is probably running hundreds of sites on it.
This should not be a concern.
Of course maintenance is significantly more work, but I'm sure you know that.

Good, I am now trying that out!

Late to this thread. If "that" was not lighttpd, I highly recommend it and use it on our site. I uses considerably less resources than Apache and is significantly faster. BTW, YouTube and wikipedia also use lighttpd. The configuration is relatively straight forward. There are three RPMS. You need lighttpd-fastcgi and lighttpd.

Looks like that page is outdated, or hasn't caught the attention of the editors recently.

"Wikipedia currently runs on dedicated clusters of Linux servers (mainly Ubuntu[96][97]), with a few OpenSolaris machines for ZFS. As of February 2008, there were 300 in Florida, 26 in Amsterdam, and 23 in Yahoo!'s Korean hosting facility in Seoul.[98] Wikipedia employed a single server until 2004, when the server setup was expanded into a distributed multitier architecture. In January 2005, the project ran on 39 dedicated servers located in Florida. This configuration included a single master database server running MySQL, multiple slave database servers, 21 web servers running the Apache HTTP Server, and seven Squid cache servers."
Yes, it will run fine. How many visitors do you expect that will visit your site in an hour? or in a day? Usually, Apache and MySQL will shoot up if you get digg, I mean if you get a lot of visitors instantly.
But, it will survive. -- Louie Miranda (lmiranda@gmail.com) http://www.louiemiranda.net
