i've noticed that almost every morning [between about 9am and 10am] UK time, i have difficulty accessing the forum. i get....

Warning: mysql_connect() [function.mysql-connect]: User vbull@pantagruel.macnn.com has already more than 'max_user_connections' active connections in /usr/local/www/macnn/vbull/admin/db_mysql.php on line 40

There seems to have been a slight problem with the database.

... and usually need to try about 3 or 4 times before i can get on. the error seems to suggest that the forum is overloaded, but this isn't the case. early AM over here is when most of you yanks are tucked up nice and warm in bed, dreaming of pancakes and maple syrup, and when i do finally connect there are rarely more than a handful of people browsing the forums. so what's the score?

I can confirm that I get the same message between 9 and 10 GMT...

Yes I've seen that too a few times at probably about the same time. I think the server might be busy with breakfast and this pantagruel at that hour.
