@willie - here are a bunch of Scaleway benchmarks.
https://wiki.x8e.net/doku.php?id=dedicated_benchmarks
I meant for Time4VPS, and hash checking, 10 files per second it's not really that much.
I tried your ioping test on a Kimsufi KS-2E (Atom with 2TB disk, they were just on sale at 7 euro/m) and I got 238 iops iirc, if that's of any interest. Also tried on my $15/y Ramnode SSD vps and got about 15k iops. Caching might be involved.
IMO you are expecting a bit much from time4vps. I have a vps with them, am happy with it, but basically think of it as a remote tape drive. 10 simultaneous operations isn't on the menu.
Those are just cpu benchmarks, but it's interesting. They claim their network ssd supplies 2000 iops per 50gb. I haven't tested the claim.
Yeah, that's the normal result, 138 iops.
11k / 15k iops, that's cache working.
Usually, RAID 10 SSD nodes aren't even close to that, but 3.4/4k iops in fact, which is of course plenty, but that's definitely cache.
To protect against "bit rot" you may want to use erasure codes (which take a lot of cpu) and spread the files into 3-4 Scaleway VPS.
Bit rot? Never heard about it TBH. It's not needed, we're talking about 73GB that hopefully will be 1TB by the next year, just don't want to be switching servers all the time.
Gosh this thread CAN definitely be closed. :P
For that price you could get a yearly dropbox subscription at 100 euro for 1TB.
4GB/800GB Xen €14.80/m or €129/yr https://www.prometeus.net/billing/cart.php?a=add&pid=122
