    Hi,

    Can you please tell me,considering that the database size is 600 MB,which part of the server affects the MySQL intensive website,like a forum, performance HDD (SATA/SCSI) CPU (single/dual core) or RAM (2 or 3 GB) ?

    I'm not a hardware geek, but my guess is CPU since a mysql job is based on alot of calculations.. but the two other parts are important as well..

    Ram is the biggest thing to consider for heavy mysql usage. Second would be cpu and third would be hard drive. You shouldn't have to worry about hard drive too much as long as you have enough ram so your queries aren't being swapped to disk.

    This comes from the software I run which is all sql based (15GB database right now)
