[QUOTE="vvvvvvv, post: 1363695, member: 5151"] :urwelcome: But seriously, though. Most of the time, the resource hog is handling database queries. Tuning a single environment for handling both the webserver duties and database duties results in a tradeoff. A webserver doesn't really need a ton of resources to function, but processing database queries does. Most reputable hosts will allow you to purchase a VPS that only has intranet access within the same datacenter (and possibly even on the same switch) with a simple phone call. And then sometimes, you have issues with your hosting and/or DNS provider. But running a forum as large as OSA is expensive. [/QUOTE]
