[kwlug-disc] VPS hosting providers

[Khalid Baheyeldin]

I have not used Dreamhost in a long time, but they had a big disadvantage
when I did. They split the web app and the database (MySQL) on separate
boxes. They did the same thing even if you had a dedicated server with them.
Your database would be on a separate box that is shared with many other
people's databases. For database intensive applications, such as complex
Drupal sites, this proved to be a serious bottleneck.
