Tuning

• Apache/php config
  • Set allowoverride all for htaccess to work
  • a2enmod rewrite
  • enable opcode cache
  • if using haProxy, let it check /index.html instead of default '/'
• Setup object cache(memcache/apcu)

Collabora

• Install docker
• According to this dockerd must be configured to use --storage-driver=devicemapper
  • check with docker info
  • prevent auto update of docker, since the update resets storage driver: apt-mark hold docker-ce
• if using haproxy in front, make sure you set option http-server-close
• read collabora guide
