Hi
We have a shared hosting on arvixe.com and have started receiving the following error when accessing my site every few minutes:
******************************************************
Service Unavailable
________________________________
HTTP Error 503. The service is unavailable.

Here is the response from arvixe support:

Hello,
Upon investigation we found that the application pool of your website was stopped. Hence, you are getting 503 error. I have started the application pool of your website. However, I have enabled the detailed errors for your website and now it is showing the following errors:
A worker process with process id of "102668" serving application pool 'mysite.mysite.com v4.0' (Classic) has requested a recyble because its private bytes memory limit.
Please refer the following URL for more details on memory:

Imposed memory limit in Windows servers

Q: Is there a CPU/memory limit/restriction for Windows Plans?
A: Yes. 100MB for Reseller Class, 250MB for Personal Class ASP and 500MB for Business Class ASP.
Q: What will happen if I hit the memory limit?
A: If the worker process exceeds the private memory quota, IIS will recycle that pool which limits the memory usage. Your active sessions to the website may get expired. If your site works on authentication you will be asked to login again.
Q: How can I check the memory limit for my site?
A: Run your site in your local or test machine with the limits and try to optimize the codes. If the limit of 250MB is exceeded you should get Business Class, else you can go for Personal Class.
Q: What if my site exceeds the 500MB limit in Business Class?
A: We can increase the worker process to 2 if you are in a Business Class server. If the number of worker processes are increased, the load will be evenly shared across both the WP processes.
If the memory usage is still high, you should consider getting a dedicated server where you can use unmetered memory for your website. |

I am just wondering if there is an easier and economincal way other than going for dedicated server, if anyone has any suggestions.
Thanks.
