Edit: Should probably outline what is actually wrong
Basically, we've upgraded and loads have gone up but then so have post counts and suchlike. It isn't running particularly slow but it's still on the default configuration and a lot of it seems not particularly optimized i.e. the MySQL memory limit which was 8mb (now 16) with a site that uses MySQL above most other things and has a db size of 300mb.
1. Is this on dedicated or shared virual server. If shared, how many sites share this server (ask web host if needed)
Virtual Private Server
2. your server specs. For example:
CPU (obviously I don't utilise all of this) - AMD Opteron 2.4ghz x2
Memory Installed - 2GB Burst RAM - 512MB RAM guaranteed
Hard Drive - RAID10 arrays 10K RPM 74GB drives SCSI - I get 20gb
OS - Fedora Core 2
Apache - 1.3.34 (Unix)
PHP - 4.3.11
MySQL -4.1.18-standard
3. if you use mysql 4.x instead of mysql 3.23.x, do you have any innodb type databases/tables on your server ?
Not that I'm aware of.
4. if possible how mysql was compiled/installed
As part of apache. Otherwise, no idea.
5. your top stats

and reconnecting may take a longer time. Disable with
--disable-auto-rehash.
-A, --no-auto-rehash
No automatic rehashing. One has to use 'rehash' to get
table and field completion. This gives a quicker start of
mysql and disables rehashing on reconnect. WARNING:
options deprecated; use --disable-auto-rehash instead.

8. Is your vb the only thing on the server? or other scripts and sites which utilise php & mysql
The majority of the server is devoted to my site but there are other scripts on the site, notably a few wordpress installations and an image uploading script (celerondude).
9. How many average and max concurrent users are on your vb forum and what your cookie timeout is
Avg. 40 members/80 guests. Max peak in the last week 60 members/140 guests. Max peak ever - 60 members/1400 guests (spider attack)
Cookie timeout - 900

The majority of the server is devoted to my site but there are other scripts on the site, notably a few wordpress installations and an image uploading script (celerondude).
