Restart Apache and MySQL and see if/when problem comes back. Site might be getting crawled, or pages are hanging leaving sql connections open, and not closing them.

That's what I see and I reported the issue already a while ago. This is a known problem in some SQL configurations not terminating processes correctly.

Slow to load pages, and I am getting en error, usually when going to the 2nd page of a topic:

General Error
SQL ERROR [ mysql4 ]

Too many connections [1040]

An sql error occurred while fetching this page. Please contact an administrator if this problem persists.

It seems to be better, but I still sometimes get the SQL ERROR message when trying to view active topics.

The whole thing is running like on steroids now, at least on my end. I just wish there would be one more feature, I need a typo preventer on top of the spillchecker.
