There's an issue with load yet again on the server. I'm working with a higher-level Linux / mySQL support at RackSpace to attempt to optimize the mySQL settings to alleviate the issue. I'll post a note back when things are settled. Until then, expect the server to be slow to load things up and very slow when you post something.
(Looks like just keeping the server running is going to consume even more of my life again...

It's alright John, we appreciate all the work you do. They've benefited our lives so much. I mean, I can't even imagine not having a FirefoxPortable let alone all the other apps that help me get through my day.
PFF is the only way we can get around our proxy at school. All my friends use it and it has also benefited (?) our lives.
If I had money to donate, I would

Ok, we've got the mySQL configuration at a better state... it's now more appropriate for the server hardware (with our 2GB of RAM) and the server's use (only running 1 site with 1 DB). The tech also enabled slow query logging and we're going to run that for 24 hours to see which queries are slowing the server down the most... that way I can look into optimizing them.
Sometimes, the impossible can become possible, if you're awesome!
John, I know you've been having problems with the server lately. I don't know if it's something on your end or mine but everytime I want to search I get "Validation error, please try again. If this error persists, please contact the site administrator."
