Server Spikes?
I'm new to VPS. I just switched to inmotion hosting VPS from another company where I was on a shared hosting plan.
I'm running a couple of wordpress sites and over the past couple days, I've noticed some server spikes. Load averages usually are very low hardly going over 0.2 but then out of nowhere I see extremely high loads--up 18. This lasts for no more than a few minutes but was enough to bring the site down once. I know I don't have enough visitor traffic to cause spikes like this. Any ideas?
Thanks,
Mike
