you're confusing 4 gigs a day with a 4 gb vps.
If you're that impatient DO or Vultr likely would be a much better fit.
fixed
@Francisco
So your changed your story from not long ago huh?
https://imgur.com/a/WxBYKut
at the time you confirmed that
any host under 2G ram throttles to 50mbps
any host under 1G ram throttles to 25mbps
100 mbps per 4 gb dosen't equate to 4 gb of network used per day though. it's not as shitty as you make it out to be.
Those are what a user's limits are, but I've not capped anyone that low in literal years.
Even still, 25Mbit/sec is going to give you more than 4GB/day
Caps aren't automated in anyway as well. Caps are applied manually after we look through a users graphs. Is it a short term peak or have they been slamming things non stop since they signed up? Things like that.
Mind checking that? Karen's been on shift for quite a few hours.

Also, not "any vps", he said that goes for 24/7 usage in your own screenshot.
Fine tuning your analogy, I'm sure if you fly to British Columbia and hand them money they'll happily provision you immediately.
In Vegas these days

I did 3 days off and on transfers at 25mbps and they throttled me to 100kbps. Never experienced anything like it before.
We don't limit that low. Your own quote says we do 25Mbit, so where is 100KB/sec coming from? Even 512's get a 100mbit/sec cap from me.
I'm the only person that does bandwidth capping, no one else.
Francisco
100KB/sec is why I had left your service after 3 days.
Right after someone was complaining about slow transfers to their own storage box from you it happened too. Might just be coincidence.
I'm sure that 25mbps you gained by cutting me off really helped a ton.
@Francisco is there any replication or any type of disk failure protection for the block storage slabs?
Show a graph with the cap then
Otherwise it's your word against mine on this and I'm not going to argue anymore.
Francisco
RAID10.
I tried to make Ceph work for us over the past few months but I couldn't get anything resembling decent performance. This is with NVME's for blockDB and all that fun stuff. Tons of RAM, CPU, you name it, but we'd get 10 - 20MB/sec reads off the damn thing when it was only half way full.
Since then I built a new system for our slabs that allows better management on our part, also limits some of the pain points the old setup has. Around half of Vegas has been migrated to the new setup, with another node converting today.
Francisco
I think I was able to order them together. You just need to add the vps first on you cart, and then add the slab.
Yes exactly someone was complaining about slow speeds to YOUR storage slabs. So instead of fixing the issue you just cut off my NFS port.
For a provider where you need to wait for things to be available in stock, I can't be bothered much for a little delay in provisioning.
We had a separate cluster doing Ceph this past year only, literally for < 2 months. No new provisions were ever sent to it, it was a selection of very old slabs, so your supposed issue wasn't related to that.
Tell you what, let me know if you ever want to give us another go, and i'll kick you 3 months on a service and slab as a goodwill gesture on our part.
Correct, you can order them at the same time, assuming both are in stock. I just freed up some more room in Vegas so there's a bit there.
We had to put the restriction in place where you can't order a slab first because we'd get people thinking it was object/ftp/webdav storage, and then would open a ticket wondering where their login details were.
Francisco
I had 3 VPS ordered that I cancelled. I do appreciate the good customer service almost a year later. I'll pass on the offer.
@lowfront
I'm six miles from the border of BC, why didn't I think about that! 😀
How quick do people sign up with those stock notification? Literally click links as soon as they arrived ‘No Stock’
There's a good few people on them as well as at least 1 discord server tracking:

You do know today is a federal holiday and per the TOS section 7,1,2 they would still be closed today.
So if your server gets provisioned. I would be happy.
Most providers do provision instantly though so it’s not that weird to be suprised by the fact that it take days to get a VM.
HOWEVER, he should have the patience to wait since he didn’t lookup if it was instant or not.

Maybe I will try your service. Link?
All is good.
BTW, what service do you offer?
Links?
All of my services are in my signature but here you go. We also have a manual provisioning.

BuyVM @Francisco is good people! If looking for the coasts BuyVM got you covered.
@melp57 Manual provisioning can be annoying, but it also reduces abuse risk for the provider, which in turn leaves you with a more stable service at a lower price point. Once you've "done your time", you'll appreciate that your server mates are at least minimally vetted.
