YABS getting stuck at GB6

Every time I run YABS it always halts at this step, why?

Running GB6 benchmark test... cue elevator music

Is the VPS so bad that it couldn't even finish the test properly?

    how long did you wait? what are the VPS specifications?

    TierHive - Hourly VPS - NAT Native - /24 per customer - Lab in the cloud - Free to try.
    FREE tokens when you sign up, try before you buy.

  • I waited for an afternoon.. and about an hour next several times.
    The specs are:
    CPU: 2 cores
    RAM: 1 GB
    Disk: 20 GB
    Bought it from CloudCone.

    check with top/htop while it is running, if you can see activity on the cpu?

    'lscpu' output? if you somehow ended up with a qemu cpu badly configured for some reason (like you self installed via iso or something) you could have emulated instruction sets which means it will be so slow it never completes.

    Just a guess.

    you need swap.

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

    Maybe.

    Hmm yes I can see geekbench running in there with 200% CPU.

  • @backtogeek said:
    qemu

    That could definitely be the case. But it says KVM so probably not that.

  • @cybertech said:
    you need swap.

    Ok I will try that, thanks.

  • Btw if I disable Geekbench 6 in the flags it can finish the test.

    GB6 needs more than 1GB of RAM, I forget how much it needs. Adding swap will let it finish but the score will be garbage.

  • Ok this time I watched it closely in top, and geekbench disappeared about half an hour. But my ssh session still shows the same. So I guess my ssh client somehow froze after not receiving new buffer. Then I made it pipe to a file and I finally got the result.
