The server is very fast, sites load in under a second for most accounts. However...
We are experiencing very heavy server CPU usage when we run Akeeba backups.
In WHM, my server CPU usage typically runs between 2 and 3. When we run an Akeeba backup, it can spike to over 20 which really slows down all the sites on this server. After the backup completes, the server will return to 2-3 server usage after a few minutes. NOTE: This happens every time we do a backup.
I'm looking for suggestions on what I might change in my server or Akeeba configs (I ran the wizard already) so this doesn't happen.
Let me know what else you might need.
