Alright, thanks for the input. I will look into it… I have some ideas on things to try. Might have to pony up for more server capacity, but I know from experience that that won’t fix anything unless I address the bottleneck directly (I suspect it’s the mysql process but we will see).
BTW thanks to the OP for offering to contribute… how about this: point your friends, relatives, and housepets to the PCA website (linked in ‘finance and investing’ at the upper right), and we can call it even. 🙂
