OK. I can live with the trailing E :-)

Looks like a very busy host:

If I understood what I read on top and vmstat, this host has enough
RAM, but the CPU is heavily used (load average much higher than 1),
with lots of sleeping processes.

I have to find out if it's just PHP or MySQL, or even the network that
is the bottleneck.
