LaMarra's Studio, Inc. allows CGI programs to be used on our shared servers.  However, some CGI programs can be resource intensive, and because the server must be shared with other users, we must limit how much of the CPU can be used by any one account .

CGI programs using excessive amounts of system resources will not be allowed. Excessive amounts is defined as any amount that results in substantial degradation of server performance.

In all fairness, LaMarra's Studio, Inc. can not allow one or two clients to use all of the System resources on a shared machine and have all other clients on the machine suffer because of it. Excessive CPU usage by one or more clients causes extreme slowness in all areas: FTP, Telnet, Web Sites and more. If the CPU usage gets too far out of hand, all sites hosted on the machine will return Errors and not be accessible in any way.

LaMarra's Studio, Inc. is the sole determinant of what consititues degraded server performance. We will notify you if your account is using excessive resources.
