Horror: found 3400 accounts on my 'semi-dedicated' server

Found something grim. Host's own SolusVM shows 3400 accounts on my "semi-dedicated" node. E3-1230, 32GB RAM, 2x4TB. In my country we call this plain shared hosting.

Checked after my MariaDB kept timing out. Suspicious, ran the numbers. 3400 / 32GB = 9.4MB RAM per account if evenly split. Reality is worse; a few heavy users eat half.

Article from 2019 on node density still relevant. Https://lowendbox.com/oversold-nightmares

Anyone else on Hostinger "semi-dedicated"? Want to compare density figures before I ticket. Not expecting much. In my country consumer protection for hosting is nonexistent.
