DreamHost has changed their rules lately. They have a script running which kills processes that goes over their limit of 153600.00. That is of course since I’m hosted on a shared server, so they’re killing the processes calling my ruby applications.

When trying to access any of my ruby applications, even the Sinatra-powered ChanLu Dev, it takes more than a minute to load compared before when the loading time took only five seconds. There are other ruby applications I’m using, like Tracks and Redmine that I can’t live without. Also, I really don’t want to use other programming language for ChanLu. Let’s just say Ruby got me, and it took my heart away.
I know that I do need a private server if I want to host ruby applications, DreamHost also advised me to get one. I’m planning to purchase a VPS plan on another hosting company, because they’re more affordable. I just hope to have some more money to finance on this.
Ah, I think it’s time too to purchase a VPS one
I wonder who could it be that “affordable VPS” hosting you mentioned.
You may just ask me personally for that question.
Too bad. But sometimes my apps load, it took minutes to load though.
I hope they would improve/fix this issue.
I do think they won’t be doing anything about this. So more people will purchase VPS plans.
oh, That sucks.:|
Yeah, it does. But what can we do…
Prices for VPS hosting is really high.
