Dreamhost is certainly a… polarizing web host. I’d put myself in the “more headaches than it’s worth” school. I use a nice locally owned web host, and if I need any changes made to the server config I just call the owner’s cell phone number and he gets someone right on it. I used dreamhost once before, and it was a really mixed experience. For e-commerce, however, I need better than ups and downs. I suggest looking for something better and not being lured in by the bargain-basement prices.
Well there are ways to overcome that. But may developer agru that its not save to turn it on. I don’t know much but I did find a way out by using custom php.ini files.
With dreamhost you can not use custom pp.ini files. The only way to really fix this issue without reprogramming Magento would be to compile your own php5 and run it from that.

You can use custom php.ini I am using it to run OsCommerce. You can modify the original php.ini and upload back.
