First of all, am I right in supposing that your test environment crashed on your laptop as a single Drupal instance?<br><br>In other words, taken together the following:<br><br>1. Virtual server config<br>2. MySql string in settings.php (is that mysql or mysqli?)<br>

</div>What I mean by this is, about a minute or 2 after the first page request<br>
from the dev or testing branch, the server starts grinding to a halt.<br>
MySQL queries become very slow and the system load shoots up<br>
astronomically. Apache crashes and the entire system becomes slow and<br>
then unresponsive, requiring a hard reset. I will have to get back to<br>
you with the exact statistics after I have approval to run another<br>
test. (I can't just go about crashing our live server! ;)<br>

</div>I should note again that I am running all of these on one server (with<br>
different databases for each and a seperate webroot for each, also to<br>
ari: I have made sure that the settings.php files each have the correct<br>
url set as the base url, also we have a vanilla htaccess file with one<br>
exception noted below.) so the operating environment is exactly the<br>
same for all 3, the only difference being that the test and development<br>
versions are checked out from the subversion repository and the live<br>
version is not, (it is still just the non version controlled file<br>
system.) The original setup is drupal core 5.15 checked out from CVS.<br>
We have the memcached module installed and a few other modules (I can<br>
post them if you think it is important.) The server has 3.5 Gigs of<br>
memory, and about 2 gigs are free during normal operation. Additionally<br>
we are currently using about 10% of our root partition's hard drive<br>
space (40/400G). We have about 8-9 established connections at any given<br>
time on port 80 (according to netstat -ntpa)<br>
Here again are the stats for the server: Server OS: CentOS 5 Drupal<br>
<div class="Ih2E3d">Version: 5.15 php 5.2.8 apache<br>
2.2.3 mysql 5.0.45 memcached 1.2.5<br>
<br>
</div>I suspected at first that it may have something to do with the way the<br>
server is configured so I tried running the test environment on my<br>
laptop (with an exact snapshot of the code and database) and my laptop<br>
crashed in the same spectacular manner as the server.<br>

</div>P.S. Here is the 1 line we have added to the .htaccess file:<br>
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^secure\.<a href="http://adbusters.org" target="_blank">adbusters.org</a>\orders\shoes$ [NC]<br>
RewriteRule ^(.*)$<br>

[L,R=301</a>]<br>
<br>
P.P.S Whats the best way to get a list of all my installed modules and<br>
versions for you guys?<br>
