Well it's done it again. Server load passed 14! And then named failed.
I would drop a ticket but tired of getting the reply nothing is wrong. But I am ready for free VPS or someone to get of there butt and fix this.

I can't help but agree with you. As I mentioned earlier (in a PM -- I'll share with the group now) things looked OK from 00:00 8/25/06 until almost precisely 18:30 8/25/06. After that the server load shot up and, well, from my support ticket:

I've got hundreds of QOS alerts this evening starting around 630pm for privvmpages and a few for kmemsize. Right now my VPS resources are red-lining with system resources at 95.71% and a high server load.

That was at 22:46. Currently my resources are at 78.46%.

I used to have alot of problems with the VPS and I was pretty nervous considering I was going to be gone for 2 weeks on vacation. I read around and I asked Surpass to disable phpsuexec and suexec (whatever) and loads went down for me and site was good while I was gone.

I still see random high loads and spikes which is hard to have Surpass take a look because by the time they see the ticket, there is nothing to see.

One of the oh top 5 reasons I went VPS is so I could keep phpsuexec and suexec disabled. I know allot of folks like it but to me it's a piece of junk.

For until the authors come to a standard of writing there scripts to use it it to me is worthless.
