I never heard of such an issue with Mambo - has anyone? I'd like to learn the cause of this problem, so if anyone can help me determine the source, to better inform my host, then please reply!

This is part of what I received from the host:

We regret to inform you that for the past few months, your site has been
using resources heavily and causing the server load to spike to
uncomfortable levels, depriving other clients of their service level and
resources. Below are a few examples of your recent usage details:

iielatin iielatinamerica.org - CPU usage: 4.39

Top Process %CPU 95.0 /usr/bin/php index.php
Top Process %CPU 70.0 /usr/bin/php index.php
Top Process %CPU 58.6 [php ]

The ideal CPU usage per hosting account is below 0.5 out of a maximum of
1.0.

We understand that you are using Mambo. Please disable all unnecessary or
certain modules to reduce your site's CPU resource consumption. If we do
not see any improvement by 10-June-2005, we may be forced to take down your
site permanently to prevent our server from further abuse.
