# Edit-page half-loading with PHP 5.3 CGI

 * My webhost, as default, uses PHP 5.2.x + FCGI. I was getting a lot of 500 errors(
   premature script header) which I traced back to one of my more useful (though
   memory-intensive) plugins not really cooperating with FastCGI. Anyways, I switched
   to regular CGI to see if it helped. When that worked, a few days later I also
   upgraded the PHP to 5.3.x.
 * Anyways, once in awhile now, when I go to edit certain longer pages the editor
   will only half-load (e.g. the top half of the page. The editor box shows up but
   no text inside).. A refresh fixes it but it can be pesky. Nothing shows up in
   the error log.
 * Does anyone have any suggestions? Switching back to FCGI isn’t an option due 
   to all the problems. I’d rather not disable all the plugins and I dont even have
   the default theme. I can live with it but if anyone has any suggestions that 
   be appreciated.
