Wait, i will give you some today or tomorrow.
I reinstalled the VM from scratch and am currently getting the following with virtio/raw block storage:
Still seems slow considering 100 MB/s was reported above, but not sure how much better to expect.
How much are you paying? What service are you expecting?
Put it like this, BuyVM and LETBox have the same list price ($5/TB) for block storage but with the former I am getting 452 MB/s and the latter it is currently 55 MB/s. I'm expecting something better than an order of magnitude difference.
Maybe that isn't reasonable, but in that case I'd be grateful if @key900 could tell me what is a reasonable expectation. Especially since I'm only achieving half what others reported in this thread.
Just wanted to post a benchmark
Damn, hopefully, the io speed is due to people benchmarking simultaneously
Why not just using different way to test!
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/xxx bs=1M count=1K maybe?
Do you feel that you paid same as BuyVM charge you? You have 1 GB of RAM free and the Block Storage free as well not sure how do Compare between both offers
Yeah, I did already test it that way too, and it made no difference. The positive news is that both ways are a bit better right now:
I'm not looking to do a strict comparison between plans, just asking what is a reasonable performance to expect from you. If you tell me "don't expect to get above 100 MB/s on block storage", then OK, that is an answer and I won't spend any more time investigating it.
If you tell me "you should be getting 200 MB/s", then clearly I'm not, and would want to figure out what is wrong.
i still don't get it.... do we get both NVMe and block storage
i.e. 20 + 256 = 276GB or only 20GB for pack 1?
20 + 256
Block size of writes matters. On a storage array with a lower amount of available iops (like a hdd mirror) using a 1mb or 4mb block size in your 'application' really improves throughput. (your 55MB/s translates to approx 880-900 iops with a 64KB block size)
So if iops was limited to 200,you'd be seeing single HDD level of write performance. (150-175)
For Data involving small block/record sizes like databases(4k/8k), storage target should be nvme/ssd arrays.
Thanks for taking the time to write. I guess I shouldn't have been as fixated on a single metric like the dd test.
What prompted this is I set up the new VM as a DB replication slave and found it to be noticeably slower than any of my other 4 slaves. And they include a VM with spinning disks on an el cheapo $1/month OVZ plan.
Of course I was a bit bummed to get this performance after signing up for a year with no refund. But oh well, maybe I should have done more research. Live and learn.
As we mentioned BBox are limited to 100MB/s per VM. NVMe can hit up to 800MB/s and it great for 4k writing if what you asking for!
OK, I didn't see that stated anywhere before I ordered, or else I wouldn't have proceeded.
I suspect their router is misconfigured seriously.
For example, their router advertises 5 IPv6 prefixes including quite large one and let users to use any of their IP range.
@key900
Please read howto configure your router and implement anti-spoofing countermeasures.
Are you referring to IPv6 or both?
Some people were effected like 20 people that are different pool, we have fix some of them and we still working for the rest.
@key900 I think this is worth mentioning in your offer copy text in future
Else you'll be dealing with lots of disappointed signups who saw the 1.1GB/s dd write test results from your previous offer threads.
They don't always understand that, that is because all benchmark scripts write to user's home or /tmp/ for their measurements. (NVMe block device)
Great, your feedback has been considered, if there is any bug or any feedback i’m happ to see them all and learning of it!
Thanks you.
Both. IPv6 problem can be verified with
rdisc6 eth0and assign available address space. I cannot verify IPv4 side since it may interfere other users.Nothing wrong with IPv4 i can confirm, for the IPv6 we will do check.
@key900
Your cisco router is requesting arp on wrong interface and one can reply to any of them. Is not it wrong?
4GB are here https://www.lowendtalk.com/discussion/153956/cyber-monday-exclusive-nvme-block-storage-bbox-kvm-double-cpu-double-credit-free-credit/p1?new=1
Is double credit still valid?
Still
When does the free credit drop bruh?
never
