Default my servers being hammered
My server in the US is being very unresponsive. I finally managed to SSH in and there's loads of httpd processes going. Is there any way I can monitor where these are coming to see whats so popular all of a sudden or even if I'm being DOS'd. Losing money, have to change servers.

Sounds like you need a sysadmin

You may need to simply tweak the max children / servers settings in apache

Now theres only about 20 httpd processes running and the site is still a bit slow. Need to change servers and get a sysadmin

Is the site using MySQL?

Which versions are on the server?

MySQL 5. It seems to be alright again now but it's too late because I just ordered a server from theplanet. For some reason my CC didn't work for the cheaper servers but worked for the more expensive ones..
