    Is this a KVM or OpenVZ VPS? If its KVM try enabling virtio in solus.

    Your speedtest link http://www.speedtest.net/result/3572436661.png
    shows the ISP to be "2267921 Ontario", and after some investigative work...
    surely that's CloudAtCost? http://lowendtalk.com/discussion/28041/cloudatcost-50-off-today-1-core-512mb-10gb-vps-for-17-5-one-time-payment/p1
    I don't think given the nature of their offer anyone would be too shocked to learn their VPSes are this oversold. But in any case, their ticketing system is that way =====>

  • ChuckChuck Member

    I don't think their support can help me if they already oversold.

    I have a bluevm CA KVM VPS with the dd result about 8MB/s...

    Woah, that is low.. To login it must take hours.

  • J1021J1021 Member

    What do you need over 9.3MB/s disk I/O for?

  • C0mpassC0mpass Member

    I don't see why there is a problem it's not that bad for a 1 time vps.

    A disk I/O of less than 500 Mb/s & anything other than SSD(both of these not needed in 99.99 % cases) is not acceptable at LET, thanks to those providers who try to fool customers with DD porn which is basically due to the controller cache memory. False advertising & fooling customers FTW.

    I get like 11MB/s from my OVH VPS, and it's never impacted the performance of the box.

    The OVH Classic VPS range have disk I/O limited to around 11MB/s.

    Disk I/O is not an issue in 99.99% of cases where providers knows what he is doing

  • NekoShiinachanNekoShiinachan Member

    I am happy with my 11 MB/s from the SDHC card on the Raspberry Pi. It's weird to see VPSs being slower than that.

    Yeah so I've heard. Small price to pay for an excellent value VPS from a reputable company

  • J1021J1021 Member

    I think I prefer VPS hosts imposing limits on I/O and network speed (e.g. VM restricted to 100Mb/s with node connected at 1Gb/s) as it creates a more stable environment.

    Yeah don't worry. I've had my fair share of low Disk I/O and logins while using Host1Free. Average Disk I/O with them is 20 MB/s on a good day.

    I once got over 100MB/s on my H1F VPS... I was so happy, then it dropped to 8MB/s...

    Okay, woah, my VPS with the highest IO is at GVH. Well, that's a plot twist.

    Sorry if that's really off topic, I never tested my I/O before and found that really surprising.

  • PwnerPwner Member

    @linuxthefish @eddynetweb

    I know this is a little off-topic, but on your H1F VPSs, do you need to shut them down from time to time to clear out the memory cache? I find mine lags after a while and I have to do the 10 second shutdown.
