Well, it sounds like your site already has some traffic.  Without
getting into a remote debugging session, have you checked your indexes
to make sure you're adding the right ones to the right columns?

If you were say entering a ton of strings into a DB and then querying
for them with insane LIKE clauses, you'd see this kind of behavior.  As
you added more rows your app would get slower and slower.
