Jeremy,
Yes, more than enough .
But, If you wanted to ask 'so who is the real idiot?', well, the answer is
clear it's me.
In my defense, I've dealt with these people for well over 10 years, though not
for hosting, and, the vps performed adequately for 1.5 years, with only 1
glitch I think.(
David,
You are either very good at guessing, or perhaps you are not guessing...

it will perform worse than a single 10k SAS drive

Hi,
I would like to recommend Micron21 in Melbourne as a great hosting provider.
I am one of their clients.

if they can't fix it, change providers.
Also if they have a public forum, ask for help on their public forum

I'm experiencing serious performance issues on a VPS, as far as I
concerned, it's some issues on the actual server not the vps
what if anything can I test on the vps to 'prove my suspicions', both past
and future ?
I have some stuff like cacti and sar already installed
last night, htop was

You may want to log the processes running during periods of high load,
perhaps logrotate or similar cron task is smashing CPU late at night.
David,
Significant iowait may indicate poor performing storage.
Run bonnie++ on your server to give an indication of performance.

thanks, I'll look at that
fwiw, the data centre now admitted to 'overloaded storage' that affected
several machines
Makes sense,
If httpd has to wait on storage, then more httpd processes would be started
to serve other requests

Michael, thanks
I hope it's resolved 'permanently', in the last 48 hours it happened
twice, last might
as well as 'sar' logging I'm currently charting with cacti:
traffic, mem usage, disk space, load, users, ping latency, process count;
as well as, apache, mysql, dovecot, postfix, icmp
what else should I be logging or charting ?
