I don't get it, the server is constantly being loaded, had hard time connecting today.
Is the server hosted on a raspberry pi ? That's the only explanation I found since DB can be clustered and accessing static files is not really CPU intensive, I believe Netgear knows how to load balance servers (I hope for a network product manufacturer at least).
PHPBB is quite simple to maintain I believe. I remember a tab in the control panel with maintenance tools. MySQL isn't as complex as an oracle Database (I know it belongs to Oracle), it shouldn't be complicated to maintain. So what are you guys doing ? messing with ESX priorities for VM ressources ? having a fiber channel storage that stores everything on your network that is overloaded ? Come on guys, you are selling NAS, I believe a 516 would be an overkill to host the forum so no need to buy a real server (and your RN4220 are powerful too...). And you know what ? It can be mirrored and with a good network product (you ought to sell) you can do load balancing. So the question is why neglecting something that your customers actually see when ESX should be dinging all day long for CPU/RAM/Disk overconsumption and when you have the products (and I hope for you the skill to use those products) at hand.
