Subject: Re: Traffic Rate Limited

Your users should be able to see the html page without an error
unless there are more than 30 people each second attempting to load it.
If there IS more than that, then we still don't want to lift the throttle
because you will take up all of the connections from the apache and then
your site, nor anyone elses site, will be able to be loaded by anyone.

Sorry about that. We won't be able to lift the throttle for you. You will
need to move to a PS in order to have the sort of traffic you are looking
to have.

Thanks!

How is your site getting more popular Dreamhost's fault?

It's called shared hosting for a reason. They're not going to let one site drag down the rest of them. You need to be on a PS or dedicated if it's too much for a shared server.

By the way, are you really too stupid to know that this isn't the place to be spamming a porn link?

I take it that's the real reason for your copy/paste spamming here?

I don't think DH forces you to sign up. If your site is getting popular and more visitors, everybody will suggest you to move to PS because shared server is not suitable for you any more.

It is good that your managed to get your site popular. And next thing to do for you is to have a better server, PS, or dedicated server.
