Dan,

For one thing I would get a beefier CPU. Your CPU isn't fit to be a serving machine it is rather slow. You need to be running a workstation grade CPU Like a Intel Q6600 or a E6400.

You need to get 6Gigs of RAM for Dual Channel Mode, and verify that your linux kernel can address the full system memory. A 32bit OS can only address 2 to 3.25Gigs of RAM, and a 64bit OS can handle more then 4Gigs.

Eh? A 32-bit Linux OS can easily handle more than 4GB of RAM using PAE. Individual processes will be restricted to 2GB of RAM usage, but since Apache spawns multiple child processes, each one can do that.

Additionally, it's very unlikely the RAM is being taxed. I have a server with only 2GB of RAM and it runs over 100 web sites (I'd imagine close to 100 million hits a month) and it has no problems. The RAM usage is primarily a factor if your code itself is sucking it all up (i.e. loading tons of data into memory from a database, a script processing a lot of data in memory, etc).
