    Periodic performance drop during begin and the end of a month because of the BW reset.

    wait, what ?

    How does that work - are people hammering the service right now to use up bandwidth allotment, or ...?

    According to my observation, it is usually happen at begin of a month. Not necessarily but happens from time to time. It will be normal for a day or two.

    If you can get cpu pass through, I'm pretty sure you'll see the AES benchmark jump to close to 2s assuming that there's no (artificial) throttling going on.

    Going by the frequency, my guess is that the CPU is Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2450L 0 @ 1.80GHz

    Everything else looks spot on (and those IOPS are great as well). As for the actual network throughput, of course that will depend on lots of (external) factors.

  • just in the nick of time! I see a new thread all about the hostsolutions just popped up - I'll probably be posting some random observations there (or here, that's fine too I think).

    Woohoo! Thank you so much! I will get in touch with @cociu

    Just to confirm / remind our collective memory, @Kyle_ was the winner for the "member #500" selection a month ago: https://talk.lowendspirit.com/discussion/comment/8497/#Comment_8497

    Expecting it may still be some days pr even weeks before the storage is provisioned but hey you'll have a lifetime to enjoy it so hopefully no big hurry ...

    I'll ping @cociu to re-confirm "winners waiting" so far.

    Also still need to hear back from @NotKnown - will send another PM and give it a couple days (until January 14th) - then will move along to the next in line if haven't heard back by then.

    Going forward we'll be looking for a shorter response time - after some discussion I think 72 hours (3 days) seems to be a happy medium for people who might hot check their inbox every day but are still at least lurking here semi-regularly. (@AnthonySmith first suggested a 24-hour response window - I'm assuming that a 72-hour timeframe would be an acceptable compromise all around)

    Open a ticket to enable cpu pass-through if needed! ? ?

    Maybe let's just see what happens with the first scheme as already specified in previous post (that is, 24 hour response time after January 14th for the current (1, 700) selection.) Also hereby tagging @kiska (#285), @redalert66 (#295, unconfirmed account), and @freerangecloud (#189, lol hi there!) so they have a heads up here (not sending any PM's though until there is a reason to do so). I hope that's a "fair enough" balance to strike without too much back and forth.

    Huh? I was tagged?
    Also I forgot this existed :D

    Yes indeed OG @kiska you are next in line for the prize from the "member #700" selection - unless we hear back from the original selectee @NotKnown within the next 24 hours (as I've already sent them a couple PMs, and they haven't visited the forum since November)

    all is activated now. Thanks all. Personally thanks for the help from @uptime because was sort this out. NOW ... WE WILL CONTINUE WITH THE NUMBERS 1000-2000-3000-4000-5000-6000-7000-8000-9000-10000 because is a pleasure to contribute to something new like this forum. @AnthonySmith can you put this in the original txt ? in the thread please.

  • @uptime said: @cociu funny coincidence, my 100th "thanks" here was from you.

    Thanks bro!

    what about this comment ? finnaly you got your vm hahahaha

    Thanked by (1)uptime
  • Yhanks @cociu :)

    All things considered, I think you may be enjoying a decent bunch of not-too-impatient customers here

    Anyway - there are still three more prizes to be awarded for signup #800, #900, and #999. Expecting next selection to be in a week or so to celebrate signup #800

    @Razza @FAT32 @TomG @yng68bld @Kyle_ @nullnothere @kiska - some of you may be new to Hostsolutions, so please do feel free ask questions here and give your honest feedback as you enjoy your lifetime of hopefully smooth sailing,

    and ... I might just suggest is that if anyone feels compelled to experiment with currently unsupported features (such as installing custom OS or whatever) then maybe best to spin up a separate monthly VPS to test as needed first - so if some adventurous configuration goes sideways, then it won't be such a big deal as if it were the lifetime instance waiting for response to an awkward ticket.

  • @cociu + @uptime - I can confirm that I have received details of my KVM VPS. I am yet to try out anything but hope to do so this week. I will be sure to post updates after I get things setup.

    Thank you again for this and here's to the new winners now that there are more zeroes to play with and win...
