Query causing server/database load issues

[JSWeb]

Hi Zenners,

We have a sitewhich seems to be causing a lot of server and database problems. They have been upgraded to 1.3.8a but their site is still causing a lot of problems (especially on the database queries).

# Time: 080817 10:53:35
# Query_time: 1308  Lock_time: 0  Rows_sent: 22  Rows_examined: 47187469
select distinct c.categories_id as id, cd.categories_name as name
        from zen_products p, zen_products_to_categories p2c, zen_categories c, z                                      en_categories_description cd, zen_product_music_extra pme
        where p.products_status = 1
          and pme.products_id = p2c.products_id
          and p2c.categories_id = c.categories_id
          and p2c.categories_id = cd.categories_id
          and cd.language_id = '1'
          and pme.record_company_id = '7'
        order by cd.categories_name;

The website url is: www.reggae.co.uk

Any advice on where this is stemming from would be a real help.

Kind Regards

Jamie

Unless there are security issues involved, it would probably help the rest of us if we could know what the problem was and how it was fixed.
