Frequent faults mean your site is reaching its plan limits.<\/div>\n<p>Resources here mean the processor (CPU), memory (RAM), and the number of processes your site uses. Leading hosting companies limit resources per site so that one busy site cannot slow down everyone else.<\/p>\n<p>On our servers this works with CloudLinux: each site has a CPU, memory and process limit based on its plan. When a site reaches its limit it slows down temporarily, and some visitors may see error 508 (Resource Limit Is Reached) until usage drops, instead of the whole server slowing down.
