Then I learned that unlimited hosting does not actually imply unlimited ressources. As long as your not clogging up the machine or taking up too much space, its fine. But bottom line, their sales motto is tricky.

Its not actual unlimited hosting AND they couldn't give me an exact value for what was "too much" when it came to ressource hogging.

So my personal opinion is to stay away from something so unclear or just keep them for small low traffic sites.
No offense my friend, but if you honestly believe you would have UNLIMITED resources for pennies or a few bucks, then you're foolish. There is no one going to give you truly UNLIMITED resources for a few bucks.

That being said, they do have some sort of UNLIMITED explanation and AUP detailed.
