    More like a premium 1Gbps port, maybe in their openvz plan they wont promise 1Gbps for a straight 10 minutes and may even throttle you to 3Mbps after 10 minutes. just a theory.

    You agree to pay HiFormance at the time you order. All fees are due immediately and are non-refundable.
    premium bandwidth=quadranet The network is very bad

  • @dz_paji said:

    I see they have an option to pay 0.92 USD/month to upgrade to Asia Optimized CN2 location for the OVZ package. With that price, I don't expect you can get anything premium. Their "Prepay 3 years to get double CPU, memory, SSD or IP address" sounds more like a gamble to me.

    It is. If you get CPU with 3.5Ghz 2-core. Then, if you prepay 3 years, they will give you 4-core but then max out each CPU at 1.8GHz. And then if you use CPU too much, they'll just keep reduce the CPU to 900Mhz, 450Mhz, 200Mhz, etc until your VPS is unusable.

    I had open vz vps and it was Ok. But they have very old kernel and they will not refund at all. I had my vz for 12 hours, found out kernel is too old but Kyle would not refund me which I thought was pretty shitty as the vps was useless to me.

    TLDR, NO REFUNDS, MAKE SURE IT IS WHAT YOU NEED.

    It's well-known that OpenVZ is based on CentOS 6, which uses an old (but patched) kernel. So it shouldn't have been a big surprise that OpenVZ uses an old kernel. This would have been the case at any OpenVZ provider.

    You will have an option to choose the newer kernel when you sign up for their service if you want newer kernel... Or I think that you can just open a ticket and ask nicely, they will move you to the newer kernel server?

    Use a test file bigger than your RAM then you might see a different I/O speed.

    I used command to bench:
    (curl -s wget.racing/nench.sh | bash; curl -s wget.racing/nench.sh | bash) 2>&1 | tee nench.log

    And this is $9 USD per year OpenVZ VPS, so I don't think anyone would expect it would have top performance...

    It's well-known that OpenVZ is based on CentOS 6, which uses an old (but patched) kernel. So it shouldn't have been a big surprise that OpenVZ uses an old kernel. This would have been the case at any OpenVZ provider.

    This is the kernel I had which is too old, I needed 3.x minimum:
    CPU model : Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E3-1240 v3 @ 3.40GHz
    Number of cores : 1
    CPU frequency : 3401.000 MHz
    Total size of Disk : 9.8 GB (0.6 GB Used)
    Total amount of Mem : 512 MB (22 MB Used)
    Total amount of Swap : 512 MB (0 MB Used)
    System uptime : 6 days, 4 hour 30 min
    Load average : 0.06, 0.02, 0.00
    OS : CentOS 6.8
    Arch : i686 (32 Bit)
    Kernel : 2.6.32-042stab131.1

    This was in New York, find out what happened when I contacted them on this thread https://www.lowendtalk.com/discussion/151641/hiformance-vps-for-sale-512mb-10gb-ssd-new-york-openvz-7#latest

  • @asterisk14 said: This is the kernel I had: [...] Kernel : 2.6.32-042stab131.1

    My comment above was simply that this is exactly the kernel that one expects on (legacy) OpenVZ -- this is the case at any OpenVZ provider.

    HiFormance.com's refund policy (or lack thereof) is another question.

    It means the host server is going down. Maybe caused by crash or overselling. Just wait a few hours that they reboot it.

  • Cheap + Long term membership = No one cares about quality when got money.

  • if a lot of people is disappointed or feeling that the price is not sustainable maybe should not be allowed to post another offer here ?

    I ordered one for trying things out because they offer OpenVZ7 (Kerner 3.x) which should work with docker.

    They suspended my 2 vps without warning and my tickets do not respond. The servers do not worry me but if my information, I'll see if they let me do a bakcup and I'll change my provider.
