With only 100MB RAM, its dog slow. I got another node at Tektonic.net, which was cheaper per-month for 256MB RAM, more disk and more bandwidth, but I just had an 8-hour unplanned outage on my node, and the most they told me was "we're having a problem" in response to my first support ticket, and "it's up" when they closed it. Other people on their forums complain about repeated, long outages, and the same abysmal communication. Since I'm looking to start hosting other people's sites and applications, I need to grow, but I need stability, too.

It isn't virtual hosting but take a look at pair Networks www.pair.com.
Not the cheapest hosting but definitely rock solid and cheap enough.
