GB6 benchmark for the VPS
4GB VPS with 6x vCPU Ryzen 7950x
customized YABS for @heartbeat_IT VDS
1 one physical core / 8 GB / 200 GB
Note it is not core HT, but one cpu physical core
He already has failed to achieve equal score on 7950X and proved me right, I don't even know what exactly are we arguing about anymore. Storage node = mostly idle node. Mostly idle node = mostly similar scores. Any attempt to use scores from mostly idle node as an evidence of provider being one the best = shill and insults intelligence of everyone around. The moment he tried to use scores from busy node = failed. Yeah and Windows installs are useless because absolute majority runs Linux.
This conversation has nothing to do with you as a provider or a quality of your services. You are a good provider, nuff said, no one is arguing that.
It works both ways. You can run benchmark many times and get a good result once. Or you can run it many times you can get the same result twice. And we all know benchmark results are bit different every time, right? So, claiming provider is good just because you've got same number twice in a year looks, like, even worse now?
HostVDS $1.99/mo
Gb score stays the same for 3 months, so by our new standards provider is also one of the best probably (spoiler - it's not)
VPS will rarely have same consistent benchmark scores since it has shared resources.
Even VDS will not have consistent benchmark scores
Exactly what I was saying all the time? Busy node - scores fluctuate. Idle'ish node - easy to get similar scores, doesn't say anything about provider quality, be it positive or negative.
I am sorry, but none of what you say really makes sense. I have no idea what you mean with equal score. Why do you assume storage servers run idle? Our storage servers has the highest average network usage and disk activity of all nodes. I'm surprised you've never had the pleasure of a poorly performing storage VPS, but good for you.
You are also contradicting yourself very much with the last sentence. You are fine with claiming a provider performs poorly on the basis on one Geekbench result but no one can say they do good on the basis of many?
With all this talk about 'intelligence' it's surprising how you lack to understand nuance of benchmarks and how so many factors can influence the results, both temporarily or permanently.
Well, maybe this?
Ahem ahem cpu benchmark
Also as you are focused on benchmark being "good" or "bad", it's not really that good. But that's not the topic. We are discussing score equality being used as "proof" of a great service.
Do you also think ability to get equal benchmarks = good service?
You're seriously expecting results within 50 points on repeat attempts?
I don't know if this is a troll attempt or a honest opinion but it says all I need to know.
Where did you even see me saying anything like that lol.
Either you are trolling and doing a good job pretending to not understand what I am talking about or you genuinely don't understand anything. Anyways, I'm not repeating my point for the 4th time.
HT-Hosting
swiftly reclaims its position among top providers according to new rules (no)
a) shitty gb6 score holds for more than a month, solid sign of a great provider, certified by @dev_vps!
b) dip of 1000 points single-core doesn't matter because it's just one benchmark, the next one will probably be over nine thousand, you know, swamp gas from a weather baloon was trapped in a thermal pocket and reflected the light from Venus on VPS.
Unpleasant experience overall. Network issues, no ipv6 (promised), support just ignores you, no refunds, embarrasing perf.
If you run
apt install lxdeit dies.Can't recommend. Ymmv.
I have never recommended ht-hosting. In fact there are multiple posts highlighting the stability issues.
GB6 score is one of the important factor, not the only factor
Customer Support is another big factor
PS - I have VPS from many providers , but HT Hosting is not one of them

You are saying that the scores that dev_vps posted aren't equal and then shows single core scores being within 20 points of each other and muti-core within 100 points of each other. That's more consistent than you can expect from even a idle dedicated server.
Either I totally misunderstand what you are trying to say or just a just circling around.
I am not really focused on that. But you are the one insulting dev_vps for recommending our services based on one bad result, that isn't even bad per se. You are hyper-focusing on benchmark results.
I don't think think benchmarks equal good service. Performance, stability and support have to go hand-in-hand.
Vice versa.
You are responding to my message that says exactly this.
Shilling is not an insult, it's what people do.
There's 2200 on 7950X above too.
So you say I was right again.
What? So you are saying they aren't equal?
What?
Of course it is. You are not only invalidating someones opinion you are also calling what is by definition a "liar, swindler or trickster".
Not to call anyone out, but I am pretty sure this server is not running idle. At least it wasn't last time he reached out in a ticket. Once again a important consideration when considering benchmarks and why it is not always representative.
Once again a clear bait. You are the one who hyper-focused on one benchmark without any further details and called someone a shill based on that result. You are the one who said did not buy a certain service based on that single benchmark.
If your opinion is that benchmarks doesn't equal good service then we have never been in disagreement on that. But you clearly contradict yourself.
BeroHost BD deal
Doesn't tick a single mark in the groundbreaking methodology of determining a best VPS, certified by my man @dev_vps
a) gb6 score fluctuates 2950-3250! Shame, not stable!
b) score isn't dipping by 1000, 100% some conspiracy, rigged!
New methodology deems this provider as NOT one of the best.
Aaaand back to reality - 100% uptime so far, support responds very fast and goes beyond the request, performance doesn't dip much (unless there's some stray process running in background), overall very happy with this one.
Again, ymmv.
Obligatory Linux desktop screenshot that is utterly useless projects the authority of the benchmarker and leaves the reader trembling in awe and respect.
Ok you are trolling.
No.
No.
