When a server houses a single site and begins to have issues, a RAM upgrade is a common solution. John recommended some changes in WHM, but in this case I think the site itself needs to be optimized as much as possible. There's really not much in WHM that can help.

If you know your site is already optimized enough and if there is nothing obvious that needs modification, a RAM upgrade is a quick way to stabilize the server. In the end it really comes down to your visitors and all of the requests they are making to your site. Even with all of the optimization possible for your particular application, you still need a more powerful server as times goes on in order to keep the system running smoothly under pressure.
