HostHatch NVMe KVM Review

MaxTakebaMaxTakeba Member
in Reviews

I've had this VPS for a little while, enough to evaluate it and say that I am going to happily keep it.

This is located in Tokyo and it serves a few purposes.
1. Being a game server.
2. Being a Japanese IP (as I'm booking some things as in 3 months and 12 days I land in Narita airport for a nice holiday).
3. A external development platform.

It's served all of that extremely well. I haven't seen any steal according to Netdata whilst it's ran 3 Minecraft servers that do idle but do also get some use by several players. Originally it started with one, now there's 3 MC servers it's hosting(with mods to boot).

This server has done extremely well and it's putting to shame my own ML110 G9 with a E5 2660v4. It's come in clutch too and for $22 USD that's very good value.

Hosthatch's panel is... lackluster to say the best. Every time I log in I have to refresh in order to see all of my options, an annoying nitpick.

Initially I couldn't setup SSH keys when I trialed my initial one before I went full send (had to spin up a machine in order to add SSH keys after). The UI is pretty, wish it had dark mode. A lot of wasted space though.

Ticket response times are OK. The two times I've made a ticket for questions (no issues! that's how reliable it's been) were answered OK.

I cannot fault Hosthatch for the actual service. They are a premium.

Geekbench 6 test failed. Run manually to determine cause.

I don't have a GB6 score as I think I ran out of swap and it failed (it is currently loaded with 3 MC servers ATM) but it this puts shame to the original setup which was several VMs on a E5 2660v4 on Hyper-V at home.

hosthatch gets 8 max cookies out of 10.

    GB6 test should not fail if VPS/VDS has at least 4GB memory

    In fact, in my benchmark tests I have included GB6 score with VPS with 2GB memory or more

    example -
    2x vCPU / 2 GB / 40 GB

    I agree totally.
    @hosthatch is a premium provider.

    Don't think it's the VM

    Uploading results to the Geekbench Browser. This could take a minute or two
    depending on the speed of your internet connection.

    server did not return any data
    yukari@yukari:~/Geekbench-6.3.0-Linux$

    I can curl the site itself so shrug, not gonna troubleshoot it today.

    I have written VPS / VDS in my post and that is applicable to dedicated server as well

    The responsiveness of our panel is definitely a problem, and we have a completely rewritten panel coming soon enough. The current panel was more of a "get everything done". The new rewrite is "do everything in the best way possible", and we're taking our time with it because every detail is important and we're not in a rush to get it out (like we were with our current panel).

    Thank you for your kind words.

    I love how so many development problem I hear about is common across orgs & time

    Doing it fast, then having to redo it right, such a common theme. We are doing the same thing right now..

    Talked to someone who developed in like the 80s and 90s, exact same issues

    @hosthatch
    I like it how the console (RDP session) can be viewed in the panel itself.
