Uploading files priority and normal server requests

Post by voltrader »

I have a dedicated server running a script where users can upload photos which are then resized and thumbnailed.

I notice that with standard photos (1-2MB), the server can only have 2-3 uploads concurrently without it affecting performance of the website.

Can I do anything to say, lower the priority of uploads, so that normal web requests are still responded to quickly?
