Sending PM's kills my server?!?


My server keeps saying that I'm using too many resources and since I currently have bluehost they keep shutting down my site every time it exceeds %20.

I've noticed this happens more when I send a PM. Is there something that might be causing PM's to use a LOT of resources on the server? is there a setting I should adjust that could limit that?

I don't mean to jump on everyone's fun here but:

First thing I'd do is limit the amount of people users may PM the same message to at once, this is done in usergroup settings.

Secondly, I'd remove the ajax username complete code from the template.. That seems to bog things down quit a big. I've watched my VPS memory usage spike when using that feature. To remove the code, you'd have to edit the pm_compose template I believe.

OK, I'll do that.

I dont think those are what are causing the problem though. It seems to kill it right when I hit the "send" button.
