These limits prevent any single account from overloading server resources (like CPU, RAM, or disk access), which could slow down other websites on the same server.<\/p>\n<p>We use the CloudLinux operating system with a feature called LVE (Lightweight Virtual Environment). This technology ensures every website on the server gets a fair share of resources, so no single account can dominate.<\/p>\n<p>Our resource limits are generous, often higher than other hosting providers, giving your website plenty of room to grow. We achieve this because:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>High-Performance Servers<\/strong>: Our servers use fast AMD, LiteSpeed Magic and NVMe-SSD storage for quick data access.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Fewer Accounts per Server<\/strong>: Unlike competitors who overcrowd servers to cut costs, we host fewer accounts per server, ensuring better performance and reliability.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Resource_Limits_for_telaHosting_Accounts\"><\/span>Resource Limits for telaHosting Accounts<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Below are the resource limits for our shared (WordPress and cPanel) and reseller hosting plans. These limits cover CPU, memory, disk speed, and processes. Higher-tier plans offer more resources for busier websites.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Note<\/strong>: During traffic spikes, your account may use &#8220;burst&#8221; resources to stay stable. If you consistently hit limits, consider upgrading to a plan with more resources.

If you exceed this limit, processes may fail, leading to errors.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Physical Memory Usage (RAM)<\/strong>: This is the actual RAM allocated to your account. If it\u2019s maxed out, you might see PHP errors or, in extreme cases, a CloudLinux error page. These issues usually resolve once usage drops below the limit.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Entry Processes<\/strong>: Tracks how many processes (like PHP or CGI scripts) are running at once. Each visitor loading a PHP page creates an entry process. It\u2019s not the same as the number of website visitors\u2014processes end quickly, so hitting the limit is rare unless you have many simultaneous visitors.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Number of Processes<\/strong>: Includes all processes (not just PHP or CGI) created by your account, like SSH or cron jobs. These typically use minimal resources.<\/li>\n<li><strong>I\/O Usage (Input\/Output)<\/strong>: Measures disk activity (reading\/writing data). Hitting this limit slows down processes, especially for disk-heavy tasks like large backups.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>For a detailed view:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Go to the <strong>Metrics<\/strong> section in cPanel.<\/li>\n<li>Click <strong>Resource Usage<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<li>Select a time period from the <strong>Timeframe<\/strong> dropdown to view charts and tables.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>If you frequently hit limits, you\u2019ll see a warning in the <strong>Dashboard<\/strong> section of the Resource Usage menu, indicating the specific limit.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_You_Might_See_%E2%80%9CResource_Limit_Reached%E2%80%9D_Errors\"><\/span>Why You Might See \u201cResource Limit Reached\u201d Errors<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Hitting a resource limit can slow your website or trigger errors like \u201cResource Limit Reached.\u201d The error type depends on the limit reached:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Error 508<\/strong>: Appears when entry processes are maxed out, preventing new processes to protect other accounts.<\/li>\n<li><strong>CPU or I\/O Limits<\/strong>: Your website may load slowly.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Memory or Process Limits<\/strong>: You might see 500 or 503 errors, indicating the server can\u2019t run your scripts.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Common causes include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Surge in Traffic<\/strong>: A sudden increase in visitors can overload your account.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Background Scripts or Cron Jobs<\/strong>: Tasks like backups or heavy cron jobs can consume resources, especially with normal traffic.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Web Crawlers<\/strong>: Search engines or bots scanning your site too often can strain resources.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Faulty Scripts<\/strong>: Outdated or poorly coded plugins\/scripts can create loops, using excessive resources.<\/li>\n<li><strong>DDoS Attacks<\/strong>: Malicious attacks can overwhelm the server, making it unavailable.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_to_Do_if_You_Hit_Limits\"><\/span>What to Do if You Hit Limits<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you frequently hit resource limits, try these steps:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Monitor Usage<\/strong>: Use cPanel\u2019s Resource Usage tool to pinpoint the issue.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Optimize Your Site<\/strong>: Update plugins, remove unnecessary scripts, or reduce cron job frequency.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Upgrade Your Plan<\/strong>: Switch to a higher-tier plan with more resources.
