I'm looking into digital ocean now and I like what I'm seeing so far. I wish they offered a custom VPS so I could get the same cores I have on my current system without having to pay for an obscene amount of RAM but I think I can find a package that will work, especially considering that their use of SSDs should lower the number of threads sitting in i/o wait dramatically. I need some more testing to confirm but I think I may have found my new host - thanks nahtnam!
