 * I can insert one or two images into a new post, but if I select more than that
   I get blocked by my hosting provider. They say the process is hogging too much
   memory. I have tried this on a new installation as well as disabling all of my
   plugins. I’ve renamed my plugins folder and tried with no luck.
 * I have switched to CKeditor and no go. At this point I have no idea what I can
   besides switch to another hosting provider.
 * Does anyone know if there is a way to replaced the build in media manager or 
   to insert images via another method.
 * My images are all 1024×768 and less than 200kb each.

 * If you are on shared hosting, it’s possible that you are on a server with a lot
   of other websites, and the amount of memory that you are being allocated is fairly
   small. Really, for the size of your images, this should not be an issue.
 * It’s also possible that you’re getting too much traffic for shared hosting and
   need to start looking into a VPS or something similar.

 * [@kjodle](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kjodle/) Thanks for the reply. 
   I was finally able to get the company to admit it was a problem on their end.
   I am moving to another server as we speak. I am also testing out some VPS hosting
   solutions as a backup in the future.
 * Thanks for your input!
