I have to admit that I don't find it normal either. Although not really an upgrade, more exactly a 'move' to new server, I would think that with my current load average of 0.4 on the old dual machine, the new machine would be able to handle the load abeit with an increased load. I am checking out some other things people have me to look at both on the list and off this list, and will report back when I am finished. Our ISP is dog slow tonight making work kind of boring. More tomorrow. Thanks by the way to everyone who has given some good suggestions.
