(Quote) A fairly controlled test would be to put one rather big file X on your shared hosting site (available via ftp and http), and then to compare wget ftp://...X with wget http://...X on your VM.
-
(Quote) Are you saying that downloading the same file f from machine A to machine B is considerably/radically slower via ftp than via http? There shouldn't be a dramatic/significant difference between the two. You might try a few different FTP clie…
-
(Quote) Indeed, the FTP standard lacks CRC or checksum, so nothing beyond TCP for ensuring data integrity, as far as the standard is concerned. There has been a suggestion to extend the FTP standard with a HASH command, but it's experimental and (I…

I tend to be old-school and still use tar + ftp, but yeah, it's not fancy. I keep telling myself that I need to learn to use one of the fancy tools. :) And there's also dump, which can do incremental (i.e., differential) backups, but it's file-syst…
-
(Quote) I think that @beagle described current usage correctly, but I think that incremental is sometimes understood as 'differential'.
-
(Quote) I would just say that LES and the OGF are two different experiences. The megathread at the OGF is definitely adrenalin-filled and contains a lot of chaos, but the tireless efforts of @FAT32 (with the flash sales) give it some underlying mea…

(Quote) This link in your post above leads to a "404 Not found"

(Quote) Make sure that you give correct and consistent information, and if you pay by PayPal, it's good if the email address that you give is the same as the PayPal email address. And, of course, you should order from your home internet connection (…

(Quote) If I remember well, only for the >=2GB RAM plans, so now (and the next several hours) is the last chance to get the 1GB RAM plan for 15€/year. (But @InceptionHosting can correct me if I'm wrong.)
-
(Quote) There was very limited stock available for that one -- it went fairly quickly
-
(Quote) Are you in China or Brazil?
-
(Quote) Why not try and see whether you get rejected again?
-
(Quote) It probably would be a good idea to put the price of the second offer

+1 for LaunchVPS, I've been with them since the summer, they are reliable and responsive

Spartan Host's BF offers: https://twitter.com/SpartanHost/status/1464317423545430020?s=20
-
(Quote) I'm tempted just because of the neat location, but I'm waiting to see what their other BF offers will be (given that they say "Our first [...]")
-
A nice offer from Free Range Cloud: (Quote) The main interest of this offer is the unusual (or "exotic") location: Halifax (in Nova Scotia, Canada) Halifax Egg Single CPU Core 1024MB ECC RAM 30GB SSD 5TB transfer 1x IPv4 /64 of IPv6 $30…

(Quote) A bit too little disk for the amount of RAM and cores, I would say, but otherwise very nice
-
(Quote) That's what it says (Quote) It doesn't say this (Quote) The offer is recurring on any payment interval
-
(Quote) Thanks for letting us know
-
@InceptionHosting : Just to be sure, does the sale end at a certain date/time specified in advance, or is it rather as long as stocks last?
-
(Quote) Why do you say this? There are three KVM offers on the list.
-
(Quote) Interesting that they won't offer a discounted VPS 200 G8 this year ...
-
(Quote) Already sold out
-
(Quote) No bonus for new customers
-
(Quote) I'm strongly tempted as well, but I'm trying to exercise self-control, which isn't easy! :# (Quote) PHP-Friends will probably have a BF special (though they haven't said anything about this so far), but I strongly suspect that if they do ha…

I should mention the VPS special ("vServer Schnupperspecial 2021 NVMe") from PHP-Friends that has just appeared: * CPU: Intel Xeon Gold 6140 / 6240 * Dedicated vCores: 2 (including nested virtualization) * RAM: 8 GB RAM (DDR4 ECC) * Stora…

(Quote) The way it works (in general -- not just at IH) is that the promotions are for new services

The idea is that anyone with a current service at Terrahost originally purchased from HS will see that service automatically transferred/migrated to Terrahost proper. The idea is not to reverse or stop the involucration of services purchased from H…

(Quote) One can have up to 10 DNS lookups, so this should be okay in this respect.

(Quote) And you're saying that your IP address isn't on any blacklists either?

Good luck with your budget Congrats on your first post
