Need your opinion on the performance of my VPS (time4vps)
I would like your on my VPS at time4vps.
I did not pay much, but before the performances were better.
What do you think ?
Do I have to open a ticket or is it normal?

Comments
From my experience this is the normal performance of their network.
Seems pretty good for backing up things in NL, and decent enough to most of the softlayer spots, if you're not moving a ton of data.
thank you for your reply
if this is a storage vps line, then, it's more than fine. Disk IO is fast enough to hold the back up operations without any issue and speeds are also fine for most of Europe (try some more with speedtest.net script to other locations/providers in EU) .
Just don't expect to have gigabyte speeds and ssd io's with ~3€ per month for 1TB space.
i think is normal. i'm using time4vps storage, and my upload speed from Indonesia is around 1MB/s.
From server specifications it appears to be our old 0.5 TB package which comes with 100 Mbps port speed so 11.2 MB/s on 100 mbps port speed looks decent
That speed is alright for a VPS meant for taking back-ups.
I had issues with the performance when I first bought one, but I have learned to live with it. You can always expect the same I/O and network throughput at any time of the day while expecting your data and the company holding it to stick around when you actually need to pull a restore job, which is more than you can say for quite a few providers out there.
For the amount of money they charge, the service sure is rock solid.
I think this is fine for "general" use. I haven't dealt with time4vps but just looking at
the stats it's kind of average. Definitely not bad.
Average performance for a below average price?
