    The next would be 256MB RAM for $20.

  • @JabJab said: I will wait for next one, I won't be baited!

    now you've jinxed it!

  • I guess we are stress-testing billing at this point and it still fast and snappy? :)

  • @JabJab said: I will wait for next one, I won't be baited!

    Next one will be 256 RAM / 5Gb SSD

    That is the beauty of those flash sales - you gamble, you regret, you snipe nice crazy deals with strange af ratio of RAM/DISK/BW!

  • My man needs to get on Amazon for some more SSD’s

    First, he gets us hooked on crazy low storage flash deals. Then the rest of the year he can sell additional storage at a premium! ;)

    Funny, the more memory the machine has, the more CPU steal it has.
    The ones with 0.5 or 1.0GB do have the least.

    up to 16% on idle, the other ones 5% max

    My lowest RAM Virmach averages 5% but none of the higher ones have noticeable steal.

    My VirMach VPS with 10GB RAM usually has less than 1% steal. It actually got better over the past few months for some reason. It's around the same steal% as a VPS at another provider that's double the price and supposed to have "dedicated CPU" 🤔

    I think with the larger ones, you're less likely to have noisy neighbours, as your VPS consumes a larger portion of the server's overall resources.

  • great deals $9.16/y

    Is this server in Seattle? I noticed the same thing with my box in Seattle

    Buffalo (node NY10GKVM73). It's one of the 3Ghz machines though (E5-2690 v2) so the processor may be faster than some of their other servers.

    I'd love a large VirMach VPS in Seattle or San Jose. Closer to where I live (San Francisco Bay Area).

    What can you do with 20GB only. Windows Install takes more than that.

    Trying out a new formula. Well, actually the secret sauce with all these sales is that we never stay with just one formula so while you picked up on a few things it means your algorithm won't always fit.

    But if I had to guess I'm assuming you're undervaluing disks, overvaluing CPU's unless it's a lot of cores since on ours it doesn't scale like that... $5 per core, $3 per 1GB RAM, $0.50 per 1GB disk, $3 an IP and $3 per 10TB bandwidth? Then you probably scale it down by 20% for Buffalo and maybe Los Angeles. Let me see if I can come up with a funky plan that'll rate well on your system, for fun.

    Wow you're good! No wonder you're the boss. Very close to what I have~

  • @VirMach said: Let me see if I can come up with a funky plan that'll rate well on your system, for fun.

    I mean it's not that hard. Throw shit ton of CPU, RAM, DISK, BW and set price to 4$.

  • Anyone that picked up a Virmach dedi recently - how long did you wait for IPMI details? I find it surprising that you need to request it at all.
