I had to install CloudLinux so that I could somewhat controle the CPU ussage and more importantly the Concurrent-Connections the Websites use. But as you can see the Server load is way to high and thats why some sites take up to 10 sec. to load!

• Server load 22.46 (8 CPUs) (!)
• Memory Used 36.32% (2,959,188 of 8,146,632) (ok)
• Swap Used 0.01% (132 of 2,104,504) (ok)

Server:

• 8 x Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E31230 @ 3.20GHz
• Memory: 8143680k/9437184k available (2621k kernel code, 234872k reserved, 1403k data, 244k init)
• Linux

Yesterday: Total of 214,514 Page-views (Awstat)

Now my question: Can I shift some of the CPU usage to the RAM?

Or what else could I do to make the sites run faster (websites are dynamic - so SQL heavy)

Thanks
