The first thing I would check for is a rewrite rule that is causing a rewrite loop. Rewrite loops tend to send Apache off the deep end.

Would that make sense with why once I enabled the plugin I would almost immediately see the Google Analytics real time visitors number rise by a bunch?
Could you please point me in the right direction to look for the rewrite loop?
I really appreciate your help and quick response. Been searching for an answer and this seems to be on the right track.

No, a rewrite loop happens before any of the page is loaded where the GA scripts are).

Can you post your .htaccess and some info on your set up?

I currently have a multi-site install setup in my public_html directory. It uses sub-domains. I am using C-Panel on a Linux server with wildcard sub-domains setup.
Here is my .htaccess file
#deny from all
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress
AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE text/plain
AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE text/html
AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE text/xml
AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE text/css
AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE application/xml
AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE application/xhtml+xml
AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE application/rss+xml
AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE application/javascript
AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE application/x-javascript
Thanks again for all your help.
You need to update your .htaccess to the one shown in Network Admin -> Network Setup.

Yes! Great catch.
I have re-activated the plugin and haven’t had any load issues since.
Thanks again for your help.
