It's been three or four months since I used this plugin. I had to stop using it because my site gets some traffic (10-20K visitors per day, 2-3 million pageviews per month) and it was causing a lot of strain on the server, causing the site to crash a lot.
I was wondering if this has been fixed since the 2.0 update?
Thanks in advance.

Hi pedoburr,
Which version of WordPress Popular Posts are you using on your site?

Hi Hector,
Like I said, I used to use the plugin, but I don't have it installed right now. I had to stop using it because of the server problems it was giving me, but it was definitely before the 2.0 upgrade.
Maybe the only solution is to activate it and see if it happens again, but I just thought I'd ask before since I really can't deal with a lot of downtime now (if it would happen)
I'll install it today and see what happens, I do love this plugin.
Best regards.

Well, the current version of the plugin is 2.2.1. A lot has happened since 2.0 and earlier ^^
Since you are at it, you might want to report back how my plugin does on heavy traffic sites like yours. If you notice that my plugin is being too harsh on your site again, please consider asking your hosting provider to check the MySQL errors and the Slow Queries log. If my plugin is to blame, then I'd be able to find out which queries need to be improved.
Anyways, welcome back! Enjoy my plugin!
