Had similar experiences with DreamHost, the server load avg was 13!!! nearly all the time. For 20$/mo, I got a linode and have never looked back.

A load average of 13 doesn't mean anything without any context. If its a server with 24 CPU threads (which is common with modern CPUs nowadays), why is 13 concurrent processes bad?
