    8 core vps for just $8 an year!!! I just paid and got instant delivery.

    did I run the wrong code or it is just error delivery, Haha.

    I doubt you could put much load on those 8 cores without suspension...

  • Looking to order but I need some test IP's please. I want to check latency, thanks.

  • @ning - whats are you using to run benchmarks like that? I'm new to the VPS game and would like to compare the two I already have. Unixbench or ServerBear or ?

    Well, My vps often stay idles, hardly used above load 2.
    Still figuring what to do with an VPS or Dedi, except for holding blogs and setting VPN etc.

  • Hi everyone,

    All of the issues regarding CPU frequency throttling and the IO issues on LA2 have now been resolved. The IO issues on LA2 were due to some big-time CPU miners being ran and once the containers were suspended, everything returned back to normal. We're going to be adding "CPU miners" as something prohibited in our ToS soon.

    To maintain stability in our infrastructure, all of these plans are now out of stock for the time being. If you are interested in becoming a GreenValueHost customers and purchasing a plan or two similar to these plans, please register an account here: https://secure.greenvaluehost.com/register.php and we'll send updates regarding existing client promotions (and existing LET client promotions) as frequently as possible. Registered users without an active service are considered 'clients' and will receive existing client promo emails. (Hint: We got Xen PV deals coming!)

    Not sure if this is their Chicago provider http://bgp.he.net/ip/64.250.118.42 claims the host is https://portal.genesisadaptive.com/networkupgrades.php . Those bandwidth prices are close to insanity if someone actually used all of what your offering.

    We have a custom arrangement. We're paying nowhere near the prices displayed on that page.

  • @GreenValueHost: your IPv6 in LA from this offer is working, but from your previous offer did not work yet, can you check what was the issue?

    Can someone please comment on this? Failed to fork means its out of resources surely - in particular RAM, even though it says it has. Does this mean the node is overloaded? A reboot doesn't fix the issue...

    Definitely RAM related. I kill some processes and I can then install things. So a) is this a case of OpenVZ RAM count being unreliable again? or b) is this a case of GreenValueHost not being able to supply what they are advertising?

    EDIT: On a side node they've confirmed my node is overloaded. They will be moving me to NY2 and we'll see if that makes a difference.

  • Is this kind of offers are reliable? Is any one using this production level website or just to test some thing ?

  • Missed the $8 deal. Any hope of a restock?
    Also, a question on btsync for personal use. Is is allowed?

    Given that every offer comes with ample "Guaranteed RAM" one has to wonder how overloading is possible...
