Ram & CPU usage
Hi everybody!
First of all, I'm very sorry for my poor english, I hope I'll be able to explain the situation.
My problem began some days ago... when I came home from work I found out that my website was unreachable. My host suspended my site claiming that it overloaded their server. When I asked for more information, they said that I was using an amount of 6ghz of CPU (22%) and 11 Gib (in 3 days) of physical ram
My website has a few html pages, a coppermine gallery with about 400 pics, and a phpbb3 forum with about 2000 users (only 30-40 are active users), 150000 posts, 10000 topics. Both coppermine and phpbb are up to date.
Is it really possible that my site overloaded the server?
I don't have any possibility to check the ram and cpu usage through my plesk control panel...
I asked to my host if they could tell me what exactly had caused the problem, but they don't know. The only solution they suggested, was to upgrade my hosting.
After a day or two they reactivated my site (temporarly) to let me discover and solve the problem... So, is there anything I can do to test the performance of my website?

ask them to give some logs (process log) to proof the usage.

It definitely sounds like you might need to start looking into possibly upgrading to a VPS, that's a pretty decent sized forum you have.

I would say start by asking the host for logs and optimize the database queries

That is a very large database. Make sure you have your phpBB configured for shared hosting in regards to robots, search functions, etc. Your database is pretty large and you have probably outgrown shared hosting.
