    The forum is very busy most of the time I have 300 people on there. and about 20.000 a day!

    I switched things off like Avatars and other ideas would be cool!


  • This load includes other sites on the server.

    Is it a shared host ?


  • What are the server specs and what type of connection is it on?


  • No its on its own server

    FreeBSD 4.3-STABLE (CWIE) #1: Wed Jul 18 16:31:37 MST 2001

    Im using a cache programme to.. but it dont seem to work much.

    512 ram!


  • dunno how to check 100% but its on its own 25 mbit line so thats not it and its a p3 1000 i guess 512 ram!

    The forum is bad for big sites. even winamp had probs i think!


  • are you sure you are the only one on the server? i know of hosts that sell virtual servers running their own isolated install of FreeBSD. they sometimes advertise this as dedicated (referring to the OS itself).


  • Sounds like you just need apache and mysql tweaked... And if you own the boxes, just upgrade the system from 512 to 1 gig, ram is cheap and well worth it....


  • I think eva will be able to help more with this.

    To be honest I wouldn't worry about the load unless it gets very big.


  • Yeah its mines.. I own 10 servers at a hosting place!


  • the prob is that is goes SO SLOW! really slow...sometimes I have to restart apache.
