Question Does settings for main domain matter?

[jackoackely]

Probably stupid question, but I am running Plesk Obsidian on VPS and I have main domain from hoster. Which I can use to auth for example.
Does it matter which settings (php settings, php version/apache/nginx). I have never touched it and default seems to work fine, but I am just wondering, if it does matter at all.

You might want to change the default settings because of your own preferences. In my experience the default settings are fine for most cases. However some applications might benefit or require different settings. Some Wordpress plugins require a more higher PHP memory limit and execution time. Nginx can be useful for serving static content and for caching. So yes, it does very much matter. But it all depends on your use case.
