A quick technical update:
I have been working with the host all morning to figure out why the site is slow. It seems there was a ton of connections made to the site calling on random pages for no rhyme or reason in an inherent attack to bring the site down.
The connections were through an outfit called colocrossing and the domain/ip holder doing a good portion of the calls was called BlazingSEO.
After many hours of investigation and research we have IP blocked what we could find and the site seems to be responding better.
