Here is a list of my web host gripes I will update them as we go:

Restrictions so far:
1) only my processes in ‘top’
2) only one dbuser per db
3) only one dbhost per db
4) db does go down occassionally
I’ve noticed because a query locks and doesn’t have a release timeout.
Possible solution: switch to postgres if this is infact a mysql weakness
5) their cronjob times are conflicting with my automated backups (I read when they read/write/lock?). I can fix this I think (by finding out their times and leaving plenty of padding for mine). This error came about with rsnapshot a linux backup utility (err# 23 or 24 in rsync manual).

“only my processes in ‘top’” - this is the big pros in my opinion. I don’t want others to see my processes. However totals (CPU, memory) are displayed for whole server.

day six-hundred-and-something — major hacking took place today (I say major because supposedly 3,500 plain text passwords were leaked of account holders. It almost sounds like a joke if I didn’t see it with my own eyes.

@WITEK — i can understand that now, as I become more aware of security.
It was frustrating at first for me to figure out why things were slow.
