 * Hi
 * I answered in another post, but try this. Here is what is happening. You are 
   most likely on shared hosting and your blog is using high CPU usage and slowly
   loading mysql. I assume you have multiple posts already.
 * Your problem, or better all problems are in “permalink structure”. When you set
   custom to let’s say /%postname%/ it is great for SEO, but what wordpress does
   it creates rewrite rules for each posts. So if you have 1000 posts, you have 
   1000 rewrite rules. In normal web development you would have one set of rewrite
   rules. In wordpress you have rewrite rules for each post!
 * How to fix it?
 * Change your permalinks to:
 * /%post_id%/%postname%/
 * OR
 * /%year%/%category%/%postname%/
