I feel your pain, Joe.  I had to move from a basic $10/month shared
hosting server to a fully dedicated server at $150/month to keep
things going with my JT65 logging/spotting system and there were times
even that struggled to keep up with demand.  I've had to get creative
with throttling peak demand on the database as it's the resource hog,
but even with that I've had to have the RAM quadrupled and add a
higher performance disk system to keep it going.  Of course, now that
the system has been around a while and the initial interest has died
down I have about 60..90% excess capacity through the week and about
40..50% on weekends, but it's been a great lesson in scalability if
nothing else.  Good luck and thanks for all your efforts!
