Lead slow?

[Polski]

Hi,
I am on Lead and since a few days everything on my account is very slow. The opening of my site, the opening of my cpanel or checking my email is a very slow process and often just times out. I sent in a ticket a few days back, and I got a response saying that there was a peak in servertraffic, sort of.
But from this morning my site is unreachable again and I can't open my cpanel because it times out. I did a tracerot but the console couldn't 'resolve' the address....which is very weird because there were no changes made to the nameservers and my domainaccount is still active.
So I sent in another ticket this morning on which I didn't get any answer yet.
Anybody else on Lead experiencing the same trouble?

There are happening all kinds of things on my account. Now my indexpage shows a mysql error:

Warning: mysql_connect(): Too many connections in /home/polskaya/public_html/b2-include/b2functions.php on line 37
Can't connect to the database server. MySQL said:
Too many connections

I really would like to receive a word of info about this from support, but I guess they are very busy since I didn't receive any answer yet..

Well, everything seems to be in order now again. Support told me the reason why the site might have been slow was that they had a slightly increased serverload due to a backup.
Can a high serverload or a backup create mySQL-problems?

Yep! I've been complaining about it for a month...

Yes, I've noticed the trouble on Lead, too. Usually it comes in the late evening to middle of the night -- New York time -- knocking out pop access to my e-mail accounts, even though the server status board shows all greens.
