I am using WordPress blog on my website. The Web host is hostgator's server. The control Panel provided by hostgator showing more then one index file processes. These processes become 10 to 20 sometimes and increase the CPU usage 20% to 45%. Hosts sends me alerts in this situation.
I am also using the plugins of wordpress WP 3 TOTAL CACHE
and WP CACHE
. normally 1500 to 2000 visitor visits my website at the same time.
Same problem occurring on my other website that also have wordpress blog but its on dedicated server of hostgator. 2500 to 3000 visitors remain on the site at the same time. How to recover this problem? I even upgraded the wordpress version but problem is still persisting. The server is apache 2.3.6. Processes list is showing something like...
4650 usr/bin/php/home/websitename/public_html/index.php 2.3%(CPU) 0.2%(MEM)
