Godaddy says the problem is VBULLETIN, PLEASE HELP.

Okay I am having problems with my godaddy shared hosting and called them up and asked them why is it running so slow after 15 minutes on the phone they had told me that it is running slow because of this forum software. They told me that the forum software is what is making it run slow.

I had asked them if a virtual dedicated server would make it fast and they told me that it may, but they are not sure. I then asked if I could test it to see if it would run fast on it, but they said no.

Please what do I do know. I think vbulletin should contact godaddy as they are saying the the forum software is why it is slow and that they also said that this php is very hackable(what does that have to do with speed?)

I don't know what to do now, any help is greatly appreciated

How are the loads going on there?

Type in: top -c

Watch your loads. I'll PM you for SSH if you don't mind I'll take a look and gander while watching our thread here because we released a huge hack tonight, so we are trying to stay on top of that.

[TheWhite]

it's going great, I'm not joking at all (your a wizard)
i'll do the -c right now, I don't mind for the PM (anything you need) anyway thanks
with 74users online my load is at 0.29

I can't complete the test i'm getting can't allocate memory errror (12)

[blogtorank]

So I'll PM you here with my gtalk ID and requesting the information needed to login to the server to look for you.

Best regards!

I gotta agree with ya there on the domains.

I have about 13 domain names with godaddy. I started hosting with them and didn't even have a small sized forums it was about 50 registered users 100 posts, and maybe 5 online. SImply put GoDaddy's servers are overcrowded which is what causes the slow speeds.


As far as I can see I would suggest a staffmember closes this thread as it has turned into an advertisement/who is a good host deal and I think the creator of the thread has gotten what he/she needs
