 * Hi. I am getting crazy amounts of processes most of the same process. I have 
   not been able to find a solution. So far today I have about 800 hits. Nothing
   at all.
 * I use hostgator
 * Here are the processes

 * I use hostgator on shared hosting. I have NEVER had an issue with it before. 
   Then when I paid for 25,000 visitors a day for 5 days, I started having issues
   about 2 days in. But I’m not sure if it’s a coincidence. Maybe it’s an update
   to a plugin. I’ve disabled all plugins and it didn’t help.
 * I’m really trying to figure out the issue so I can have my website running without
   constant 500 internal server errors. My site is lynnylens.com
 * Here are my active plugins:
 * All in one Favicon
    BackUpWordPress Better WP Security Blog in Blog Clean Options
   CloudFlare Contact Form 7 Counterize Do Follow EasyRotator for WordPress Foobar
   Notification Bars v2 Head JS Loader Instapress Latest twitter sidebar widget

   System WordPress Importer WordPress SEO WP-Optimize WP Avoid Slow WP Customer
   Reviews WP Google Fonts WP Smush.it WP Super Cache
 * I really need help. Please, if you have a solution, please post it. Thank you
   so much!

 * OK. I visited the site now without much problems. The problem seems to be load
   time. Check now and tell us what problems you face now.

 * This is in continuation of the above.
 * I find that you have HUGE number of markup errors (704 Errors and 107 warnings)
   in your validation [report HERE](http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Flynnylens.com%2F&charset=%28detect+automatically%29&doctype=Inline&ss=1&group=0&user-agent=W3C_Validator%2F1.3).
   Fix them. Most of your current problems will be solved.

 * Please disable or delete all plugins and switch to the default theme (TwentyEleven
   since 3.3). After making these changes does the problem still occur? If no, re-
   enable everything one by one to see which component causes the problem.

 * Ok, for some reason I think that the high CPU issue isn’t getting bad right now,
   or so it seems, but I think I may be speaking too soon.
 * I saw the report, wow, how do I fix 800+ issues fast? Is there any plugin or 
   fast way?
