Are you on Dreamhost VPS or plain-old shared hosting?
I had to migrate my WordPress off Dreamhost shared hosting as it was too slow and blowing their CPU limits. That was around 2006 and I'm sure a lot has changed.
VPS. http://sachagreif.com runs on it and got to the top 5 of HN many times without any trouble (I'm using W3 Total Cache).
The only reason I'm thinking about switching away is that their control panel is a little messy, and they don't support Git deployment out of the box (although you can activate it via ssh, which is what I did).
It also feels faster than PHPFog for some reason, especially the WordPress admin. So overall, I'd say they're a pretty good option for budget hosting.
