    @vpn2024 said: Not to be mr negative here, but how does the economics of offering 24GB RAM for $10/month work,

    I've got one from Black Friday 2023 with 48GB RAM (32GB * 1.5x for 3-year payment), that's around $15.30/month ($550 per 3 years). I can confirm that they do not use ballooning and it seems like the RAM is truly dedicated. I didn't notice any slowdown even if all of it was being used, so they're not doing something sketchy like using disk space to fake RAM. I installed from ISO so I can guarantee that ballooning is disabled in my VPS.

    If a host is overselling RAM with KVM, they usually require users to have the ballooning driver installed and enabled. This lets VPSes that need the RAM 'borrow' unused RAM from other VPSes. SSDNodes uses this extensively, which is why they don't let you install from ISO. If you disable the driver and try to actually use all the RAM, SSDNodes start periodically rebooting your VPS to force the RAM usage to go down.

    As far as I'm aware, there's no way to oversell RAM with KVM without using ballooning.

    You can use Kernel Samepage Merging (KSM) and I expect they do, but you woudn't notice as theres no real performance hit. Its just like dedup but for RAM in the most simplest of terms. Only real downside is potentially security is a bit lower.

    A provider can't oversell RAM with KSM though. You still need enough RAM to run every VPS, just in case there's no memory pages that can be merged. They can't assume that customers will run identical versions of software with identical libraries.

    Very true, but overal you do squeeze a bit extra out of the system typically.

    Very interesting, I presume their default images aren't enabled with return-memory-to-host non-sense that someone mentioned ssdnodes does? I would also be interested in the definition of "dedicated" regarding the two cores, I know some sneaky providers here have over the years tried to hijack the word "dedicated" to mean something else far from dedicated - but even so high RAM alone makes this deal certainly interesting I can't just cant wrap my head-around the economics here still. How much RAM would you expect these host nodes to have? maximum? I see 24gb simm is around $80 to buy from crucial.

    Just because I was browsing their site, 1TB RAM EPYC's are not that rare https://www.reliablesite.net/dedicated-servers/64-Core-server/amd-epyc-7773X-1TB

    @vpn2024 said: I would also be interested in the definition of "dedicated" regarding the two cores

    It means you can constantly use that much CPU power. For example, if you have "six cores with two dedicated", it means you can use up to 200% CPU (as shown in htop) constantly, and the rest of the CPU power is "fair share" for burst usage only.

    The CPU usage can be split across multiple cores. The "dedicated core" is not actually a physically dedicated core - they don't use CPU affinity/pinning to ensure your VPS always runs on the same physical core on the host system.

    Also, regardless of the hosting provider, 1 virtual core generally actually means a thread, not a core. I haven't confirmed if this is the case with HostHatch.

    Out of interest

    1) is there a timeframe for snapshot support for Sydney? July 1 like some of the other improvements?

    2) when implemented will bandwidth sharing (be it same DC or Continent) include sharing between compute and storage plans, or is it compute only?

    1. Should be very soon (early next week).
    2. Yes, both compute and storage.

    Great news, thank you.

    Happy Birthday.

    On the order page for the storage VMs it states in the description (doubled RAM and bandwidth for two year payments). Is that still valid?

    It is. It will be doubled automatically once provisioned.

    Anyone running windows on HostHatch? How's the experience been so far?

    Check my review: https://lowendtalk.com/discussion/194092/hosthatch-review/p1

    Thanks, I had already read it, forgot about it lol! Do you know if they allow Windows, didn't see a Windows Iso in the OS list.

    No experience, but should be a simple case of adding the ISO and booting.

    Edit: Maybe virtio drivers should be mounted and installed too, anyway, should be possible. Please verify with someone else though as there's no refunds on these and I've got no first-hand experience. Anyway, very unlikely that you can't get it working.

    Windows works great on HostHatch, it's definitely allowed.

    Haven't been browsing LET for quite some time so I was excited to know Hosthatch finally posted the anniversary deal. Read through the deals specs but I missed that setup time part lol.

    Pricewise is obviously very good. Just wanna make sure the performance is there for my use case as it'll be an at least 1 year commitment.

    All good.

    In this case I'd suggest you to have a look in the old thread if there are benchmarks. If there's one missing, maybe ask for the specific one you're looking for here.

    Not exactly on topic but does anyone have the latest best tip on mounting a storage vps drive on a compute vps instance?

    Somehow I think smb or nfs is not the most elegant way to do it. ;-)

    What's wrong with NFS? You can also use SSHFS but it will have its limitations.

    There is also sshfs, which is easier to set up, but I would think that NFS is the fastest/best.

    NFS is a great choice if you're mounting a storage VPS to a compute VPS in the same location. Just use the internal networking that HostHatch makes available, and you've got a secure connection.

    I wouldn't say it's inelegant, either. NFS is stable technology that has been used with Linux and Unix for a long time. And there are tons of tutorials and people to help out if you have trouble.

    Can someone post /proc/stat on previous deals with similar CPU allocation?

    Not exactly on topic but does anyone have the latest best tip on mounting a storage vps drive on a compute vps instance?

    Somehow I think smb or nfs is not the most elegant way to do it. ;-)

    From experience, iSCSI

    Windows not allowed 🚫

    We allow Windows, as long as you can upload your own ISO and install it with virtio drivers. We just do not provide any additional support or handholding for this.

    There is also sshfs, which is easier to set up, but I would think that NFS is the fastest/best.

    I'd strongly recommend against SSHFS. It'll fall apart once you start transferring many files at once.

    It really depends on what you want to use the storage for. There's two different ways of sharing it:

    • "file storage" means the server has files, and you can access those files from a client system. Like a NAS. The files can be accessed from multiple clients at the same time.

    • "block storage" means that the server has raw disk space that gets presented to the client as a block device, for example/dev/nbd0 for NBD or /dev/sdc, /dev/disk/by-path/foo or /dev/mapper/foo for iSCSI. The server doesn't care how you use the space. You can partition it, encrypt it (LUKS), format it with whatever filesystem type you want (even filesystems that the server doesn't support), etc. It can only be used by one client at a time.

    Block storage is faster, but file storage is more convenient for several use cases (since you can use the files from any client, and you can edit the files on the server)

    as for implementations:

    • If you want file storage, NFS is good. Make sure to only use NFSv4 since it reduces the amount of server processes you need to run, and supports file locking. If you're using Debian then I updated the NFS server wiki a while back to document how to disable NFS v2 and v3: https://wiki.debian.org/NFSServerSetup#NFSv4_only.
    • If you want block storage, then NBD (Network Block Device) is good. iSCSI is good and has wider support, but the protocol is very complex - it's literally regular SCSI over the network. It's slower than NBD which is very basic - a good developer could write a basic clone of NBD in a weekend.
