Hi Pyxis,
Yesterday we answer to you in our support page:
Hi Peter,
You need request to your hosting company release this PHP functions:
shell_exec()
cat /proc/cpuinfo
Cheers,
Bill
Unfortunately your hosting company is limiting you. Probably they don’t want to show to you the real performance and characteristics of your server.
We wrote in our WordPress readme page the server requirements to use this plugin.
Cheers,
Bill

Dear Bill,
You are 100% correct. Below is the email I received from HostGator.

Hello Pete,
Thank you for getting back to us.
It is my understanding that you are requesting to have shell_exec enabled. Due to inheirent security conscerns with this function I regret to inform you that it cannot be enabled on our shared packages. I sincerely apologize for any inconvenience. If shell_exec is required for the sites functionality it would be recommended to look in to our VPS and dedicated server packages.

Hi Peter,
Thanks for let me know and for your 5 stars.
I made upload of the plugin version 2.44. I guess this version can avoid a 500 error, but that disabled hosting functions will limit some plugin functionalities (not all).
Please, let me know if you decide try and have problems.
Cheers,
Bill
