[rt-users] RT 3.8.8 on CentOS 5.5 slows down/hangs

[Eric Dropps]

Are you using fastcgi?  If so, I highly recommend a regular cron job to 
restart apache.  We've found that fcgi will always make RT slower over time 
on CentOS (once of many reasons we're moving away from that platform)

Hope that helps,

Hullo RT Community,
I finally have my RT 3.8.8 running on CentOS 5.5. It works fine but usually 
slows down at some point, whereby the RT page take long to load, even on 
refresh. This forces me to restart my Apache web server service for it to 
respond fast enough. I have done this like 4 times now.

I thought our local DNS was slow in name resolution, so I tried accessing 
the RT page using its IP but nothing changes.

Any ideas on where I could start troubleshooting? I need to pinpoint what 
exactly slows it at some random point, say in the evening or midmorning.
