Yep, seems we are outgrowing our current server, after only about 8 months here. I spent the past 8 hours optimizing the server to reduce the frequency of those messages. It got better, but it's still far from ideal.

I've been looking into getting a dedicated server, which should be able to handle all of our server load. The problem is that they cost about 3x more than the current one.

We'll see what happens.
