Hi all,

1blu is a german provider that offers pretty cheap vps from time to time. This time I could not resist and wanted to check them out. Price non recurring, only first 12 month for this price.

General

They have a manual provisioning process and you need to call them to approve the order. They do not offer IPv6 as far as I know.
Edit: Also included: 1 .DE Domain for the year.

Benchmarks

Done with preinstalled centos7 image.

Have not done anything with the machine but wanted to share if someone is interested. Look at the benches yourself and see if its something of interest for you.
Please request more benchmarks if you want.

Not affiliated with the hoster in any way btw.

    Shame its limited to 12 months, IONOS did that recurrings.

  • true, recurring would be nice.
    But if you are flexible enough you can jump to another provider after 12 month and wait for their next special offer.
    They do them quite often I think.

  • Why does the yabs report show a higher score for single core than multi core?

    Multi core benchmarks, make only sense on multi core cpu's.
    If you run multiple of these on a single core, for whatever reason, obviously since you are running multiple the average goes down by the times you run it.

    Seems they only allow German customers

    I bench YABS 24/7/365 unless it's a leap year.

  • @cybertech said:

    really? did you try?
    If thats the case that sucks. But it is possible as the website is german only, they want you to call a german number and provide only bank transfer as payment.

    That caught me off guard :tongue: it's actually delaying my consolidation

    Et the, @cybertech ? Seems consolidating is in the air.
