Drupal on shared hosts and the mysql error 2006 problem ...

Many people on drupal.org have reported the following mysql error since the advent of Drupal 7.x

- PDOException: SQLSTATE[HY000]: General error: 2006 MySQL server has gone away:

I've provided a google search URL below that captures all the mentions of this problem on drupal.org.

I've also provided the URL of the relevant mysql manual page, which states:

The most common reason for the MySQL server has gone away error is that the server timed out and closed the connection. In this case, you normally get one of the following error codes (which one you get is operating system-dependent).

Over a signifcant span of time people have reported the problem above incorrectly believing it was caused by something in a particular Drupal feature, when in fact it is a MYSQL server configuration problem that can crash execution of all manner of activities one performs within the Drupal administration system.

THE QUESTION AND THE PROBLEM:

Which server of these servers fits more from Hetzner hosting for a heavy traffic website

Hello
Expecting a lot of traffics and on the same time visitors
http://www.hetzner.de/en/hosting/produktmatrix/rootserver-produktmatrix-ex
Please advise if this server suitable (EX 5) fits well.
Expecting total views per day 40k and on the same time 2.5k-3k on the same time.
Please advise.

Also does the ECC really matter?

Good evening Trey,

It is sadly that I must bring to your attention some serious failings in the customer service and account management from your staff at Green Geeks that I have experienced.

I opted to select yourselves as web hosting providers after reading your claims for Green Web Hosting in January 2012. Before signing up to your services I verified with the sales department that I would be able to have a parent email account that would allow me to view and send mail from a single source for my NZ and UK based domains. I also confirmed that the support team would settle any issues I had promptly to my satisfaction. I also confirmed that they in fact had an online cpanel backup facility that would allow me to backup my files

During my time with Green Geeks I have raised numerous help desk tickets regarding these problems:
[#BEU-164887]
[#PQA-598910]
[#XQE-283812]
[#MBD-636734]
[#QDY-932411]

Is there a middle ground sort of hosting service available that is between shared hosting and VPS?

Is there a middle ground sort of hosting service available that is between shared hosting and VPS?

I am currently using a hosting service where it appears my site shares a server without 250 other domains. Consequently PHP script execution is often slow, due both to memory constraints and low CPU availability and responsiveness.

Are there hosting services around that are still share hosting, but that provide more CPU and memory access?
