I know that some people have had their issues with Dreamhost (my hosting provider), but I have to say that my experience with them has been largely positive. However, they’ve had a spate of issues that have plagued them recently, causing the intermittent slow access times/site outages that you may have seen here.
Well, DH has an official blog and has offered up a lengthy post explaining the root causes behind the recent issues and just how they’re looking to prevent such things in the future. That’s right up-front and neighborly of them, if I do say so myself and a complete rarity in my experience. Crick don’t rise, I’ll be sticking with Dreamhost for the forseeable future based on this alone.
