    hi :) @BulkVM sure, so how many customer-vCores are there per each Dual Xeon E5-2630 v4 server?

    @skorous give me alternative or cheaper (backup-)storage. Need transparency.
    @BulkVM are you going to have a downtime chart? there was something 15? minutes ago.

    @skorous also can't edit the previous post while forums are often set for more drama than wikis.

    ...Tested the storage a few times: Is writing limited to 20MB/s? @BulkVM What about setting a more dynamic limit?

    First two sessions i tried by NFS at ~60MB/s and it was unresponsive a lot (D process state (uninterruptible sleep). Yet we can blame NFS for not being polite there like SSHFS.) Some testing with DD would also wait for long or give 0.x MB/s.

    Today it seems ok (or is it the different daytime?) . So that i'm writing over SSHFS for some hours already (average 15mb/s). (while restoring a backup will go faster)

    But how to trust the drives, how old are they? What about publishing all smartctl data for all drives all the time? (I could write that cronjobs for you) @BulkVM: Btw, This log file doesn't exist : "BulkVM Automated Drive Setup... LOG: /var/log/bulkvm-drive-setup.log"
    How many customers do / did you have yet? :)

  • Not to care too much about repetitive one liners

  • clueless if i dare to actually keep it and use it for backups 🤷 (Not if HDD replacements will not be transparent / uncertain as the next response in this thread, the only PR yet.)

  • @BulkVM

    also please let use know if the setup might be based on RAID-Z2 (zfs) or a traditional RAID-6

    and how many customers you made yet?

    thanks!

    This obsession of yours may be a tad unhealthy.

    Idk about this one chief. I might consider BulkVM and a couple others to be my competitors but dragging other providers into one provider's offer thread seems kind of bad lol.

    If BulkVM really isn't a good fit, have you tried posting in the requests section? I feel it would be far more courteous. (From a provider perspective)

    That's actually funny. I had typed out, '@AuroraZero , let's perform an experiment. Set this thread to sink and see if they keep posting here,' but hadn't hit Post Comment yet.

    involucrated already. i feel like i knew who's behind it. after all not many people checked ASN then said "looks good", followed by asking linkedin profile

    Fuck this 24/7 internet spew of trivia and celebrity bullshit.

    what do you mean @Encoders?

    involucrated

    is it riddle? a rare word leading to that servarica if you use google images (precisely to https://lowendtalk.com/discussion/comment/3248444/#Comment_3248444 )

    Sorry, I can't read

    @Skorous i didnt get why you chose to bully this thread (writing the first message in it)
    and consequently also complain about mine long later. (i don't know what might be funny about that.)

    I'm sad that the OP disappeared when you came back.
    So that it makes more sense to stick with a bigger competitor like OVH or Hetzer. I dont know if i should benchmark more or try to get back my money out of overall suspicious against the whole experience with this forum.
    I'd prefer to support somebody actually owning some machines and visiting their nearby DC (if such ambition exists you can dm me.) (yet offers usually will be indistinguishable from oversold resellers of resellers' resellers? who might me much more numerous in this forum than real customers)
    Was i "too productive" for your taste @Skorous? (@FrankZ) My content was relevant and laborious.
    Admins are free to make sure threads are sorted and ranked fairly ( Forums are programmable.)
    (next to that you seem to enjoy the manual time.)
    Am i supposed to entertain you guys with memes only?
    (i should not be blamed for you clicking every recent thread for no reason?) nor be forced to spend more time justifying productivity, than posting actual benchmark and review )
    (or if you guys prefer having a private party, why'd you randomly chose to come here to this thread harassing my flow? a tread belonging to @bulkvm, as you agreed in and to me apparently, if i'm their sole customer yet)

    I'm just capricious. I like to exercise my power pissing off you lesser beings.

    When you're drunk with power like I am everything is funny.

    I never left.

    It's hard out there for a sock-puppet. Always on the grind.

    Glad you agree.

    No but it'd be nice. Got anything good in the hopper?

    (i should not be blamed for you clicking every recent thread for no reason?) nor be forced to spend more time justifying productivity, than posting actual benchmark and review )

    I never blamed you for my click habit. I called you a shill.

    (or if you guys prefer having a private party, why'd you randomly chose to come here to this thread harassing my flow? a tread belonging to @bulkvm, as you agreed in and to me apparently, if i'm their sole customer yet)

    To be clear, I never said you were their only customer. I said that I thought you were @BulkVM . Later I accused you of having and unhealthy infatuation with them. I've seen nothing that changes my opinion.

    Not sure why you're angry. The thread has been set to sink so now that you're back from you ban you can continue your lovefest without bothering anybody.

    >

    try spamming even harder, you'll get involucrated permanently

    Reguards.

    thank you for your honesty! @skorous. Sounds like you are on a good way to overcome that issue.

    memes

    Some forums and this one might not be existing without people [having to] look for the cheapest offers? (be the reason only perfectionism or insecurity (in rich places), or that hosting is very profitable in average leaving a lot of room to hope - or actual poverty, or at least the very common discrepancy of ability and ambition combined with too low budget
    (which most people face potentially, who aren't most apathetic and did not inherit, are not loaned,
    or be it to to support the modest, fair, new or vulnerable providers out of sympathy.
    )

    accused you

    i see! you just counted my posts, so you didn't notice they paid effort. (Yet i actually adjusted a little too much. hope that makes you feel relevant. besides i felt pushed and it leading to you guys' contrary complains as if i was too patient and also too critical)

    Admins are free to make sure threads are sorted and ranked fairly ( Forums are programmable.)

    glad you agree

    (...=which can be optimized for both: better feeds and no unnecessary fences / patronizing )

    wrong thread? @Encoders
