  • Just checked getting over 2 gbit data speed for my VPS

    Yeah it's threads, but still, at this price point it cannot be beat. You also have a dedicated 1Gbps port so this is still competitive with the larger hoster companies such as OVH and this is still a suitable alternative to Kimsufi KS-1 as long as you're okay with it being a VM.

    1 Gbps port is not dedicated

    https://php-friends.de/vserver-ssd/traffic

    It says here that it is dedicated though.

    Maybe @PHP_Friends can clarify the cores and port?

    VPS having a dedicated 1 gbit port .. means
    1. Host machine must have 10 gbit port
    2. No more than 10 VPS per host server

    Yeah the network was blazing fast in the BF offer

  • @TODO said: It says here that it is dedicated though.

    that is not what it say, i just some have difficulty reading with comprehension,

    server company that plays word salad games.

    it says: "You can fully utilize your dedicated 1 GBit / s network card up to this value"

    key word "network card"
    you can use the network card.

  • their normal vps have dedicated physical cores or dedicated vcores?

    Find me a comparable provider that give 4 dedicated physical cores & 8 gb ram for 4.99 euro, even less without vat.

    Dedicated logical cores, I already explained it.
    Linux kernel/scheduler decides on which physical core/thread you will sit. You dont get fixed 4 threads from 2 cores or any other physical resources. Its VPS, its virtualized. Pretty much all the time it will be one thread from one core, because kernel wants to spread load across cores.

    Its a VPS offer where nobody will be angry that you use what tou paid for and there is no overselling. If you want fixed resources then just get dedi server.

    while I totally agree with the rest, I wouldn't be too sure about that part ;-)
    from a providers perspective it simply is not feasible to let ressources go to waste, so of course you will put load to your CPUs to a certain extinct, no matter what marketing says.

    if you have a large node chance are high, that your clients are a mixed bunch of services, some more cpu intensive (game servers, streaming apps, rdp) and some just idlers or well below the average. and if you monitor a bit and are able to migrate/balance easily, of course you will oversell especially CPU, as that is the rather easy part...

    You missed it. Now you're going to deal with regret.

    On a serious note though, after the SYS lottery win - I'm just keeping on fast vps and the sys server. That's all I need.

    Made a benchmark of 2x E5-2630 v4 from last year, I don't know if the core amount has an impact on the single core performance.

    Yeah haha :D My Proxmox install is idling very well over there. Mainly because the software I wanted to install didn't support LXC and I somehow failed to setup IPv4 on KVM correctly lol. Need to do some extra reading on that next year.

    no worries, I do not really need mine, so if you want one so badly I can always ask for a transfer to you, just think about it a bit longer I'll keep it warm for you ;-)

    haha - ofcourse - but really _ I am trying to keep only a limited amount of idling resources.

    Thanks for the offer though. I will hit you up when I need one.

    BTW, you got the 4C or 8C?

    the 4 core. pretty cheap. want to see how it compares to the netcup vps with only two cores, but double disk size which was in the same price range ;-)

    still waiting for provisioning, guess it's only gonna come around on monday though, which is perfectly fine...

    They just wrote a few minutes ago on Twitter:

    Important information about the winter special: After we took the product online around 6 p.m. yesterday (without even posting it on social media), the orders exploded. We had to set it to sold out at 12 noon and are still working on deliveries. - https://twitter.com/phpfriends

    Does this means they are overselling terribly?

    No, just that they got more orders than expected

    Yea, they probably oversell a little, I meant they they dont "oversell as much that you would feel it". No matter the time the GB5 score is in about 5% margin and it doesnt matter if you encoded on this CPU for last 24hrs. Because of that they exceed what its written in specs because you can really use all of computing power and also theres higher IOPS limit (because there is less clients per machine) and that one is veeery obvious if you compare it to competition ex. Contabo.

    Thanked by 1Falzo
  • Update on Twitter

  • The thing is they didn't set a limitation, and have to manually set "out of stock" at noon because they were shocked. (This is what they said in tweet.) So it's obvious they over sold. And this is why they are busy delivering products instead of Christmas holiday?

    It's 24 hours since my payment and I am still waiting. No complaints here, it's Christmas, hope the GB5 score could higher than 2500.
