Thanks Giles,

Should I reduce the memory cache size or the disk cache size?  Both are set at 
256M (with 768M memory total).

Thanks
David

p.s. any idea why the CPU usage & disk access drops back to 0 at midnight?  Is 
there a cleanup I could run more regularly (e.g. every 3 hours) to keep the 
CPU usage & disk access to normal limits?
