from a historical perspective you may find that is wasnt the 1.1.4 upgrade
that has broken things - your database may have finally become too big and unwieldy.
this has certainly been the case in many such cases.  I would check how long
your database queries/inserts are taking. perhaps vacuum/optimise the tables,
move/drop older entries, create better KEYs for the purposes you need.
