As far as I can tell, these problems are due solely to the quality of 
trac.  There is no indication that they will disappear through only an 
improvement of the hardware the site is hosted on (unless we consider a 
really amazing improvement, something on the order of 10x faster CPU and 
disk than what we have now, a 3GHz P4 and contemporary disks).

I would be happy to be mistaken in this, though.
