I would stay away from Dreamhost personally. Regardless of what they happen to support, I've had numerous performance + uptime issues with them.

You might look into slicehost. It's a little more expensive, but you essentially get your own machine (via Xen VPS), allowing you install and run whatever you want on it.

Hi guys,
was chatting to someone about hosting a low-traffic Catalyst site, and the subject of Dreamhost came up - they (apparently) offer particularly cheap virtual servers (about £5/month), and judging by their website, you receive a shell and can compile your own apps, including it says, CGI apps.

I was wondering how appropriate it would be for running a database-backed Catalyst app though. There is support for persistent MySQL databases (i don't know about PostgreSQL), but I don't know about mod_perl or fastcgi apps.

Edit: No support for mod_perl, nor PostgreSQL.
However, there IS support for FastCGI.

I use vpsland.com, so far uptime has not been a problem at all and I have not yet noticed any performance issues(Its been 8 months).
