hosted

Are there any hosted WAF (Web Application Firewall) solutions available that work best with Drupal? The site we have in mind for use in this scenario is a simple content-driven site.

I've installed drupal on hostmonster and it is incredibly slow. It sometimes takes 45-60 seconds to return a simple view. We only have about 200 node records since it's still in development. The slow query log doesn't have any reports over 1 sec. I don't know if it's my install, or if it's them. I've contacted support and they said the site's being throttled, but I don't know enough about Unix/programing to know if I should hit up IT to install a local server or what.

Any thoughts?
