I run a large site and I've noticed after have a few servers the load still remains high on the server. About two months ago we upgraded from a Intel Celeron 2.4GHZ with 1 Gig of ram to a Intel Pentium 4 2.8GHZ with 1 Gig of ram. The site runs vBulletin, the database size is 555.25 MB. After ram and full server upgrades it still keeps hitting loads as high as 40.00+. Could this be a sign that it might be time have both apache and mysql on their own dedicated server? If not are the any suggestions that anyone might have. If this is needed the server is running Apache 1.3.34 and MySQL 4.0.25-standard. Marc
