Propose him a VPS or something similar, this will kill your server and affect other users. You can give him a warning and if he continues, you could suspend him but this is not the way of doing business. However i would advise work closely with him to resolve the issue.

Thanks for the advice. In further research under I found under Main >> Server Status >> CPU/Memory/MySQL Usage That mysql (user) is taking 33% cpu and his user is at 15%. Is there any tweaks etc that I can do to make mysql not take so many resources?
