Problem With MONO

[oneokayfella]

My programmer sent me this and I was curious if anyone on the board could lend some insight

Btw - My name is William Turner and I'm the creator of WikiAudio (the Deki website)

Weird.. Wonder whats causing the spike. Can you ask him to tail the log while this is going on to see whats going on? Ask him to stop by our irc channel and we can troubleshoot there.

How often? Is it every 5 minutes, on the dot, perchance?

Depending on traffic, it's also a good idea to enable Varnish and eAccelerator on the site. This will ensure that not every visitor/crawler causes pressure on the system. That said, this should not happen of course.
