This Account Has Exceeded Its CPU Quota Please contact this site's webmaster.
Wait a few minutes and use your browser's "Back" button or click here to try again.


If you are the webmaster, your account may have gotten this error for one or more of the following reasons:

• Your account has used more than its share of the cpu in the past 60 second sliding window.
• Your account has too many concurrent processes running simultanously.
• Your account has consumed too much memory.
• Your site was recently very busy trying to run inefficient scripts.

The solution would be to optimize your applications to use less CPU.
Adding appropriate indeces to your SQL tables can often help reduce CPU.
Using static .html documents instead of painful .php scripts will practically eliminate CPU usage.


... it's annoying.

I haven't seen that message for some time but its a good indicator that the site is using more resources then the account is allowed, meaning the site is getting more popular and more visits.

Actually, yeah I get that message too! The most recent occasion was less than an hour- but I know I wasn't the only one affected. Still frustrating though

Mmhm, I saw that today too, and I've seen it a few times in the past.

I get it on quite a few occasions. Usually it comes up when I submit a reply to a post and it takes a while to actually post it. After about a few minutes when nothing happens, this message appears. A little frustrating when you have to wait a few minutes for it to sort itself out. Also when you navigate back to previous pages, the message is still there and you can't continue from there. At first I thought it was just me but now I assume that it's a problem with vBulletin seeing as a lot of us get this.

It just happened to me again even though I was idle for about 30 minutes. I'd just popped out for half an hour and came back assuming I had to log in again. I refreshed the page and the message appeared. Strange

Maybe this could be a problem. All the threads use html, but advanced typing boxes for editing posts, searches and user profiles use php. I don't see how that is regarded as painful.

Using PHP these days isn't as resource intensive anyway. Plus because of the way a forum works, you can't use static HTML.

What's likely to be causing the heavy load is MySQL queries.

Perhaps it's time for Peter to attempt to optimize the MySQL DB's tables.
