I'm not sure why my server is so slow. I was told that upgrading to a dedicated server would fix my problem. It sits at about 32% memory usage and 95% idle.
I'm not getting much traffic at all. Less than 10k hits per day. I bought some traffic from choker a while back and had to throttle it to less than 100hits/hour and it still crashed my website. I'm sure if more than 10 people accessed my website at the same time it would crash.
I'm pretty sure that with noone on my webserver my max transfer speed is around 900k/s. This is the fastest I've been able to download my backups. Most of the time I'll only get 100k/s and less.
