From recent newsletter:
3. The Most Popular Suggestion of the Last Two Months.
In order to rise above the rabble, one must differentiate and in a way,
segregate themselves from them. Only then can they attain true peace and
order in this turbulent Indian Ocean we call life.
It should really come as no surprise then that the most popular
suggestion of the last two months, as voted on here by you, Happy
DreamHost Huddled Masses:
https://panel.dreamhost.com/?tree=home.sugg
Is the one "Keep sites with adult content on different servers from the
rest.".. by almost a 3 to 1 margin over the second place suggestion.
Now, we've never been one to infringe on the First Amendment, nor have
we particularly interested in proactively policing our customer's
content. And we don't know if the popularity of this suggestion is out
of a desire to keep one's own shared-hosting site far away from busy
sites which may be taxing the load, or a worry of contracting some rare
form of digital herpes by sharing a host.
We're going to assume it's the former. And so, we did a little audit and
found that possibly isolating as few as 0.1% of our sites to their own
servers could dramatically reduce the load for the other 99.9% sites.
Literally; the ratio is actually 999 to 1.
Especially after the little network incident we had on Wednesday night:
http://www.dreamhoststatus.com/2007/...etwork-outage/
we've decided a separation of some sort would be in the overwhelming
best interest of the Happy DreamHost Customer community as a whole.
We have already developed a system to start pinpointing sites with the
potential to be isolated, and in the next few weeks will further refine
the process to best attempt keep everybody's sites happy and healthy in
their own little hosting neighborhoods!
