Just a little tip for my good readers using joomla. Recently an email from one of my clients hosting provider came informing him that his site has been suspended due to his site overloading the entire server. As a seriously growing website, you would not want your site to be offline for even a minute.
One of the reason why it is good to rent your server from an established hosting provider is the fact that they are used to most problems and would normally work with you to take care of the problem.
The culprit was simply the joomla cache that was turned off. If you turn on the joomla cache option from the joomla admin > Site > Global configuration >System > Cache Setting. Joomla would generate a file saved on your computer that can be called up when ever it is requested instead of stressing the server all the time if requests are made. In order to avoid this happening to your site, it's better to turn it on after installation.
