Maybe look at bandwidth if he's also running an FTP server. SNMP and MRTG
can give you some stats. I'm probably going to move my MySQL server to a
separate box. Your buddy might look at doing the same if his MySQL server
is eating too many resources.
I recompiled MySQL with some custom configuration options to improve
performance. Check out the MySQL web site or the readme included with the
source for recommendations for low, medium and high server load
configurations. You can also look at the Apache directives RLimitCPU,
RLimitMEM and RLimitNPROC to rein in an unruly Apache server (but I don't
think that is the case here).
