Hosting support

Dreamhost gave me a warning that my site with just 4-5k page loads a day uses up 90% of the server resources of the shared hosting machine. More than 300 CPU minutes a day. I need to bring that down to 30 CPU minutes. What's the trick?

I'm running my site on PHP5 on CGI. I was forced to compile my own PHP because DH was not able to set certain parameters on the default Apache PHP:

session.use_only_cookies        On      Off
session.use_trans_sid           Off     On

Any help would be highly appreciated!

I am looking for provider of Virtual Private Servers. Any recommendations?

Does anyone have experience with Spry Hosting http://www.spry.com? If affirmative, what's your assessment of Spry?

Thanks in advance.

I have a small nightmare on my hands: a half finished e-commerce website and something of a deadline looming. It has been built with Drupal, and at this point mostly just requires fine-tuning and testing of various modules and design work (we had planned to utilize CSS, someone with a talent for this would be great). Please email me if interested (heatergirlie@yahoo.com).

Really simple question: If I build websites for people for cash, can I use customized Drupal drops as their code base? And what about submitted modules? Can I leverage them, too?

Hi all,

Just a quick annoucement.

We have dumped all our domain, e-mail account, MySQL db, etc. limits on all our Shared Hosting plans .. the only quotas that are still left are your actual disk usage and bandwidth usage.

We have also introduced a small entry level package (Cloud 50 .. 50 MB diskspace) for .99 GBP p/m (or 11 GBP per year - all excl. VAT).

.. and finally, we have created a 90 day money back policy on our shared hosting plans ..

Come have a look at:

I was wondering if anyone is using Site5 and noticed that their TOS specifically says not to use domain parking for new sites- one of Drupal's new multisitings best features.

Domain Parking Circumvention
Any attempt to circumvent domain parking restrictions by using selective HTTP redirects or any other method to send traffic from parked domains to sites other than the main site is strictly prohibited. If multiple domain names with separate content are required, domain pointers must be used instead.
