Lamont is headed to Daytona so he asked me to post this e-mail that he received. We are trying to determine why the message boards seem to get real slow at certain times. Does this message sound reasonable and what should we do?

I have been working with the datacenter for some time on this. I was unable to find anything wrong with the server, and the datacenter wasn’t able to either (they did a 24 hour monitor). They mentioned that your server had a significant amount of traffic, so I did some investigating. It looks like you are pumping out just under 200 gigs a month (that’s a lot of traffic), which appears to make apache fail.
The load on your server right now is 1.62 (anything over 1 is something to worry about). You have several options, such as getting a larger server, or splitting your sites among multiple. I wish I had a better solution for you, and am not trying to upsell you, as I no longer offer new servers. Your biggest site appears to be vtxoa.com, with bigbikeriders and gl1800riders following closely. I’d recommend getting a new server, and putting two of those sites on it.
