CMSMS sites running slow with a paritcular hosting company

Thought I would share this with you -

I have 5 sites now running CMSMS and was getting annoyed by the repsonse speeds, taking minutes in some cases.  At first I thought it was something I had done, however after some investigation it became clear that it was the hosting company(www.streamline.net).  Now I don't normally like giving companies bad press but their tech support do not want to know anything about it and always blame CMSMS.  I have subsequently moved to a small hosting company and the response time is excellent, so am now in the process of migrating all my site to the new host.

What are other peoples thoughts on Streamline and has anyone else had problems with other hosting companies?

Check if your site is not running on php 4.
One of my sites (i think it was cmsms 1.2.5) were on server with php 4.4. Home page used to load in 3 min and after 15 min of running all server styopped responding.
Test copy of the site on wamp (or smth similar) on your PC.

Hosting company has the right PHP. MySQL settings its a server problem, they are sharing to many sites to one server.

All sites run great on new host and locally so I am concluding its the hosting company at fault.
