It goes down sometimes not sure what to do to fix the issue.
Thanks ill look into it more. Also could the issue be ram (4gb).You should hire somebody to fix it for you, or search the forums if you want to fix it yourself. You can use "high load" as search keys.
I see swap is actively used, that is not good. I have no information about your server, so I don't say anything about whether or not 4Gb is enough for your server. If you want me to check and optimize your server, please send me a PM for a quote. After I login to your server and do an audit I'll be able to say is it OK for your server have only 4Gb RAM or not.
