Site Problem

I moved this site from Bluehost to Media Temple in early August, the site has been running very well. Those problems that I had with Bluehost never occurred again and the site didn’t have a single minute of down time. I am glad that I made the move. However, some issues at Media Temple caused the site to load very slowly since last Wednesday night and to isolate the problem, I had to bring the site down completely Friday night and most of the time Saturday. It was a relief when the finally came back again last night, but the process of dealing with MT to get the problem resolved wasn’t a pleasant one. I just hope the issue won’t come up again.
