Commercial MedaiWiki hosting?

Anyone happy with your commercial MediaWiki Web host?

Recommendations?

Dreamhost.com virtual hosting, $7.95/month, where I host my
MediaWiki 
has frequent sluggish spells. I suspect the MySQL server is
bogged down 
by too many other virtual host customers (my wiki only gets
a few hits 
a minute, itself) and the overextended MySQL server is
causing the wiki 
to serve pages in 2-8 second instead of the 1-2 seconds that
is 
acceptable to normal website visitors. Normal people such as
I'd like 
Wikigogy to serve just wont wait more than 2 seconds to view
a page. So 
I need to find a faster MedaiWiki hosting solution. The slow
down is on 
again off again -- site is fine for a day or more and then
everything 
slows down again. It just wont do for my project.

I'd love to hear from anyone who is using a commercial full
MedaiWiki 
Web host, on a virtual Web hosting account or otherwise, and
is happy 
with it.

Thanks!

For what it's worth...

I had the same type of trouble with MySQL on Dreamhost, I
contacted 
their support a couple of times and they eventually moved my
site over 
to a different MySQL server. It's been a lot better since.

thanks
Andrew

I have one on OVH, and for the price (it starts at 1€/month
for the 
shared hosting, the more expensive are bigger but not faster
per se) I'm 
quite happy. The only thing I've been hammering them is the
support of 
Subversion, so I could be back to svn co/update instead of
ftp-ish.

But it's a western European one, might be too far away if
you are from 
the US.
