Poor Server Performance

    Hi guys, I've been having trouble getting my server up to snuff. Thought I'd take another shot at it.

    Trying to go back and get some eyes on my apache2.conf

    Ubuntu 13.04 w/ the latest ISPConfig 3

    My Apache2.conf

    Code:
    # This is the main Apache server configuration file.  It contains the
    # configuration directives that give the server its instructions.
    # See http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/ for detailed information about
    # the directives and /usr/share/doc/apache2-common/README.Debian.gz about
    # Debian specific hints.
    #
    #
    # Summary of how the Apache 2 configuration works in Debian:
    # The Apache 2 web server configuration in Debian is quite different to
    # upstream's suggested way to configure the web server. This is because Debian's
    # default Apache2 installation attempts to make adding and removing modules,
    # virtual hosts, and extra configuration directives as flexible as possible, in
    # order to make automating the changes and administering the server as easy as
    # possible.
    
    # It is split into several files forming the configuration hierarchy outlined
    # below, all located in the /etc/apache2/ directory:
    #
    #	/etc/apache2/
    #	|-- apache2.conf
    #	|	`--  ports.conf
    #	|-- mods-enabled
    #	|	|-- *.load
    #	|	`-- *.conf
    #	|-- conf.d
    #	|	`-- *
    # 	`-- sites-enabled
    #	 	`-- *
    #
    #
    # * apache2.conf is the main configuration file (this file). It puts the pieces
    #   together by including all remaining configuration files when starting up the
    #   web server.
    #
    #   In order to avoid conflicts with backup files, the Include directive is
    #   adapted to ignore files that:
    #   - do not begin with a letter or number
    #   - contain a character that is neither letter nor number nor _-.
    #   - contain .dpkg
    #
    # * ports.conf is always included from the main configuration file. It is
    #   supposed to determine listening ports for incoming connections, and which
    #   of these ports are used for name based virtual hosts.
    #
    # * Configuration files in the mods-enabled/ and sites-enabled/ directories
    #   contain particular configuration snippets which manage modules or virtual
    #   host configurations, respectively.
    #
    #   They are activated by symlinking available configuration files from their
    #   respective *-available/ counterparts. These should be managed by using our
    #   helpers a2enmod/a2dismod, a2ensite/a2dissite. See
    #   their respective man pages for detailed information.
    #
    # * Configuration files in the conf.d directory are either provided by other
    #   packages or may be added by the local administrator. Local additions
    #   should start with local- or end with .local or .local.conf to avoid name
    #   clashes. All files in conf.d are included 
    #
    # * The binary is called apache2. Due to the use of environment variables, in
    #   the default configuration, apache2 needs to be started/stopped with
    #   /etc/init.d/apache2 or apache2ctl. Calling /usr/bin/apache2 directly will not
    #   work with the default configuration.
    
    
    # Global configuration
    #
    
    #
    # ServerRoot: The top of the directory tree under which the server's
    # configuration, error, and log files are kept.
    #
    # NOTE!  If you intend to place this on an NFS (or otherwise network)
    # mounted filesystem then please read the LockFile documentation (available
    # at <URL:http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mpm_common.html#lockfile>);
    # you will save yourself a lot of trouble.

    # DefaultType is the default MIME type the server will use for a document

    # keep browsers from trying to display binary files as though they are
    # text.
    #
    # It is also possible to omit any default MIME type and let the
    # client's browser guess an appropriate action instead. Typically the
    # browser will decide based on the file's extension then. In cases

    Here is the php-fcgid.conf I changed somethings on this, but I have no idea what i'm doing. Looking for some tips to tune these two files. Searching myself will update if I find some answers.

    Code:
     AddHandler fcgid-script .fcgi .php
      # Where to look for the php.ini file?
      DefaultInitEnv PHPRC        "/etc/php5/cgi"
      # Maximum requests a process handles before it is terminated
      MaxRequestsPerProcess       1000
      # Maximum number of PHP processes
      MaxProcessCount             100
      # Number of seconds of idle time before a process is terminated
      IPCCommTimeout              240
      IdleTimeout                 240
      #Or use this if you use the file above
      FCGIWrapper /usr/bin/php-cgi .php
    
    
    
      ServerLimit           500
      StartServers            4
      #MinSpareThreads         3
      #MaxSpareThreads        10
      #ThreadsPerChild        10
      MaxClients            300
      MaxRequestsPerChild  1000
    All the sites on the server look to be setup to use fast-cgi, I have a couple of info.php files as well I will add a link
