During peak times, the server load average goes crazy high, and PHP has intermittent problems connecting to MySQL. Right now, both PHP and MySQL are on the same server, and adding a second database server is something for the near future but not a possibility at this moment. Would adding more RAM help the issue? (Currently 2 gigs, would upgrade to 4) Or is the only thing that would help server load average be to have more cpu cycles?
