from time to time, this site does seem to have issues that on the surface appear to be some sort of resource constraints at our hosting site (maybe the database is consuming too much memory or cpu, etc.)
no one has been able to nail it down yet. it clears up after a while (maybe the hosting company reboots the database, or something)
This seems to be the current explanation (rebooting the database).
There was talk (Joaz, Jordus, etc.) about moving us to a dedicated server/database, but nothing has been reported since then. Anything new admins, site mods, Jordus?
Would be good to get these things nailed down. Maybe get more technical input from the actual hosting company? Don't want a repeat of technical problems bringing down a very active site (again).
