my server keeps crashing from the fact that my cron jobs and index.php are over using resources.Is there a way to make it where these will not use so much server resource?

you could set the cron to every 5 mins instead of 1.


you could also optimize all the plugin and core code, running it through something such as http://htmlcompressor.com/compressor.html on average ive chopped about 30% of most pages, however it does require a lot of work and time and future updates will require the same process, on the plus my server load no longer passes 2.0 and thats with arrowchat re-enabled.


another thing (as mentioned before) is apache, php and mysql tuning and a decent cache module, or a server upgrade. I recommend servint (who im with)

Are you having issues with server load on your new cloud server too? Or is that a problem with shared server?
