I got a dedicated server, but I not a expert in the server thing. I had some trouble ealyer this year about slow upload of the page/down time we fixed that by deleting the analog statistics, so now the only stats are webalizer.

Now I have seen the server is slow again sometimes and now I realy dont know the problem, my site get about 28000 unique visits and the site do have alot of pictures, so it does make some huge stats.

any one had the same problem

first, check if your stats are performing revDNS ->
translating IP number to domain name, try to turn it off

then, run 'top' and check how many system resources are used, 'ps -e', 'uptime' and 'free' would also help

then, maybe you have large files of system logs -> try to logrotate

Thanks for the reply, I will forward this to see if it helps.

Install Apache 2.0.48 (any version that supports worker MPM) with worker MPM, if you use PHP 4.3.4 (again any "newer" version will do) install Turkc MM Cache

Your CPU loads should then lower, and Apache would ld use 75+ processes instead of 170+ (type "top" and check how many processes are open)

Run webalizer only once per day (if u use webmin then that's recommended since every day your logs will be cleared)

Message me if you want detailed help.
