 On a fresh install of wordpress (with or without the default theme, with
 or without a fresh database) the load of my VPS is about 0.10/0.50 (it's a
 quite big website: 6000 unique visitors per day).
 When creating the wordpress lines on my .htaccess the load goes up to more
 than 40/50 and the the VPS crashes.
 This happens also if in Wordpress is not selected to use permalink (so if
 I past by myself the code in htaccess).
 The code I'm talking about is:

 {{{
 <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
 RewriteEngine On
 RewriteBase /
 RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
 RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
 RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
 </IfModule>
 }}}

 Also my hosting is investigatin without results.
 Other people seems to have this problem in past:
