Greetings Zath!

I feel like the magic 8 ball; if you shake me hard enough I will dispense some sort of answer, but I want it to be the right one for your situation.

Based on what I have seen in times past on WARP, I would say your problems point to ISP issues; however I must admit in terms of all out balls to the wall web site programing, you do push the ragged cutting edge of the web world envelope.  Your ideas are brilliant; but at this point I do not know if you push standard hardware beyond its capabilities, or is there a rougue process that gets loose in your code, that eventually causes the house of cards to collapse.  I wish I had some clear guidance for you my friend, because you are truly gifted in so many technology areas.  I just do not know where to begin, or end with your situation.  I am the equivalent of Thomas Edison, giving you Zephrom Cockron advice on warp propulsion.

... And then the Whos down in Whoville will cry booo-hoooo-hooooo-hoooooo.


But then again, sometimes a bear's gotta do what a bears gotta do.

Any more TV, or movie lines I can steal??

Well I have every confidence, whatever Zath sets his mind to will be great!

Greetings Zath!

There are tools that allow maintenance while a UNIX box is up and running, but for the most part you are on more of the correct path by doing the maintenance when the box boots.  A properly configged UNIX box will optimize itself during the boot sequence. 

The big key to their performance factor is that UNIX boxes allocate memory to a process, and that memory chunk stays exclusively with that process.  Windozzze takes all of the memory and constantly shifts it between load usage applications.  This is how wiondozze boxes can start to run so slow over time.

Drive fragmentation on UNIX boxes should be minimal, based on the UNIX file structure system.
The other thing to remember about UNIX boxes is that you do not want to fill the drive more that 80% of its capacity.  This will cause performs dragging issues for the system.
