I've got a Linux/Drupal/PHP programmer who suggests using Hostgator for our site.

He says we need "Level 5".

http://www.hostgator.com/vps-hosting/

I've never used this so I'm asking for any comments on it.

Out site is low volume, targeted strictly high level execs and accountants, but the pages themselves can take a while.

We get maybe 20-30 orders per day.

Of course, I want any individual page draw to be as fast as possible.

Any experiences?
