(Quote) Thanks. I'll leave it for a while, but I'm not really worried. I'm running mySQL and it seems to be handling that without blinking; that (and reliability) is all that matters to me. The comment was a bit tongue in cheek.

I guess people are running stuff on their new VPS. Steal seems to be running pretty high at the moment which is adversely affecting idleness. /s top - 14:09:21 up 1 day, 14:03, 1 user, load average: 0.06, 0.05, 0.05Tasks: 107 total, 1 running,…

(Quote) They gave a looking glass in the OP so you are welcome to try it to wherever you want.

Try GreenVPS @NDTN

(Quote) From what I have observed the complaints are more about the CC business practices rather than the DC's reliability. However, I am sure others will chime in on that. In any event, for me it is more of a case that I look for something in Tel…

(Quote) In my case I already have stuff at Carrier-1, Colo and Stack, so keeping an eye out for something like RW/Stream/Equinix. More generally there's a bit of an aversion to CC though.
-
(Quote) Ah. Thanks, I pass on that one!

Which DC are you using in Dallas?
-
(Quote) I do not use ZFS (too memory hungry for me). With the above, I put images in a central repository and just scp them and run my extract.sh script which does the above.

LXC on btrfs is easy. Create a snapshot and zip it, then deploying on a new machine is like gunzip -c "${FN}" | btrfs receive /var/lib/lxcbtrfs property set -ts /var/lib/lxc/${BN}.tmpl ro falsemv /var/lib/lxc/${BN}.tmpl /var/lib/lxc/${CN…

I looked at it a year or so ago. API good. Anycast network has improved since I looked, but still a bit hit-and-miss. https://www.dnsperf.com/dns-speed-benchmark?id=1okqa3ikivrm1zj They're targeting it towards security features like DNSSEC, if yo…

(Quote) Don't worry, us is simple folks and you've probably provided the most entertainment we'll get today if not this week. Think of it as a service to mental health.

(Quote) You mean something like chewing tobacco? Don't think I could fit one in my mouth.

There's too many "it depends" in this. If you want to have edge nodes close to end users on different continents, well consolidating onto a single dedi works against that. When I run the $, a bunch of VPS are still cheaper for me.

I use it on static domains. I don't use it so much on ones with dynamic IP determination (tied to up/down monitors, geo-routed, etc.) because I have not yet assessed the performance impact of on-the-fly signing on our nameservers - that's on the to…

(Quote) I don't have experience with them personally. I know @jar used and recommended them, but not sure if that is still the case after their outage. My impression is that they are OK if you want a basic anycast DNS, but if you want to set up Ge…

(Quote) I took a US KVM. It was getting absolutely pummeled yesterday as I guess people were doing their benches (which I never saw much point in, to be honest), but is idling strongly today. procs -----------memory---------- ---swap-- -----io----…

(Quote) Dallas has overall been quiet this year. I was looking for a super-low HAProxy frontend in Dallas that is not in Carrier-1 DC.
-
(Quote) Thank you. That is good.

Might upgrade my old OVZ plan! What sort of utilization is acceptable over 4 cores? Obviously not dedicated/100%, but also checking that it is not 4 cores with average 1% utilization expected.

(Quote) My new girl said this about my old girl too... oh wait, you are talking about servers.

Depends on your use. If you're protecting a client login page (and I note that the two who complained are providers) then maybe so. For protecting a contact form, it is fine. 99%+ of visits to our contact pages are automated and/or spam, and hCap…

USD or AUD?

(Quote) Thanks for the reply. Yes, I can write a "connector" quickly, and planning to do it tomorrow. But wanted to check that I am not missing a ready-made answer.

(Quote) If I understood @codelock correctly, he won't bother because it is not worth the hassle (to be honest, this is my view as well, I'm mostly offering it as a good neighbor). Therefore you can have it but make sure you understand the VirMach t…
-
(Quote) OK, please check the requirements/process with key900.
-
(Quote) Yes, but please look up the VirMach transfer rules. I don't remember the details but they were a pain in the buttocks like sending photo ID and promising to give them your first child. Preferable that you can pay them the transfer fee dire…
-
(Quote) OK, can you please check the LETBox process and create an account/open a ticket or whatever they require. To be fair I think let's give it (say) 2-3 days and if I don't hear further from you (PM OK) then I assume it isn't working out and it…

I have done a similar thing to this integrating both HetrixTools and UptimeRobot so that it uses a "proper" monitoring service. Works with both their free and paid tiers. Or you could use cloudping. I then "translate" the webh…

(Quote) Wow.

(Quote) You are probably right about that. To be 100% clear, my service was provisioned earlier than this year and is not from the current offer. I would have guessed they are putting new customers on OVZ7. I have also not tried specifically aski…

(Quote) Yup. Running OVZ6 is my understanding.
