Out of curiousity, what are the current specs? Is the server co-located, hosted, or your own?

Thanks.
 
This server can do alot more traffic. Current server stats (CPU usage):

Code:
Cpu0 : 4.3% user, 1.9% system, 0.0% nice, 93.8% idleCpu1 : 4.6% user, 0.3% system, 0.0% nice, 95.1% idleCpu2 : 8.6% user, 1.5% system, 0.0% nice, 89.8% idleCpu3 : 5.2% user, 6.8% system, 0.0% nice, 88.0% idle
The Xeons are bored. Maybe someone can submit this site to Slashdot

The average CPU usage was around 30-40%.
 
The main problem was the software installation (Red Hat 7.2 with Ensim):
 
1) PHP crashed random with memory errors ( http://www.ntcompatible.com/thread23057-1.html)
2) Sometime Apache crashed during the logrotation reload at 4:00AM in the morning ( http://forum.ev1servers.net/showthread.php?threadid=31746)
3) Updates may break the server ( http://forum.ev1servers.net/showthread.php?threadid=25172)
4) Red Hat 7.2 end of life 12/31/03
