   but since my website trafic increased i have some trouble… i have a medium of
   40.000-50.000 visitors/day and more than 200.000 views The problem is that from
   a recent time… when i have a high trafic… my mysql create a high trafic… because
   of mysql my dedicated server CPU goes up to 900 usage… 1st i tought it was because
   the high trafic but it did the same thing when i had something like 200 visits
   in 10 mins. What i can be the problem because this high CPU usage? I have **Supercache**
   and **db optimize** and i dont know what to do more than that to avoid this high
   cpu usage. Server caracteristics are: * Procesor Intel Core 2 Duo E7400 2,8 GHz,
   3 MB L2 * Front Side Bus 1066 MHz * RAM 2 GB DDR2 * HDD 250 GB SATA II 32MB *
   Trafic 6400 GB / Month * Intel Gigabit Ethernet Thank you and i will be grateful

 * SuperCache or WP-Super-Cache?
 * [http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-super-cache/](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-super-cache/)
   is really pretty good.
 * There’s also w3 total cache. [http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/w3-total-cache/](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/w3-total-cache/)
 * You can see a comparison here: [http://www.nerdgrind.com/w3-total-cache-versus-wp-super-cache/](http://www.nerdgrind.com/w3-total-cache-versus-wp-super-cache/)
 * Look into optimizing your server:

 * Can you post a list of all the plugins you have running? There are some huge 
   resource hogs out there…it may be one of those.

 * 1. Permalink structure. Try default or one that starts with a numeric value.
   
   2. Big database with a lot of revision files or a too big postmeta table?

 * c0stin, did you get around to trying other caching tools or looking into optimizing
   your server?
