    test ip? which DC?

  • What does DDOS MIGRATION mean? Forward all packets reaching my ip to a destination of my choice?

  • Means if an attack comes in at your IP under 1GBs that all of that traffic is handled by my DC and doesnt reach or effect your IP

    This special is in our LA Location. Check here: http://www.ecovm.net/network-looking-glass/

  • Do you support windows OS?

    That's called Mitigation, not Migration.

    I have just tried the following code entries to improve on IO and Network speed. I tested on VPS debian 7.3

    Disk I/O Optimization
    The most important setting in order to get the most out of your VPS, is to use the virtio driver instead of the legacy IDE one. To do this you need to log into SolusVM and under the Settings tab, change Disk Driver from ide (default) to virtio. You will need to reboot your VPS through SolusVM for changes to apply.

    Additionaly, you can improve I/O performance by using the following commands:
    echo 0 > /sys/block/vda/queue/rotational
    echo 0 > /sys/block/vda/queue/rq_affinity
    echo noop > /sys/block/vda/queue/scheduler
    echo "echo 0 > /sys/block/vda/queue/rotational" >> /etc/rc.local
    echo "echo 0 > /sys/block/vda/queue/rq_affinity" >> /etc/rc.local
    echo "echo noop > /sys/block/vda/queue/scheduler" >> /etc/rc.local
    echo 'vm.swappiness=5' >> /etc/sysctl.conf
    echo 'vm.vfs_cache_pressure=50' >> /etc/sysctl.conf
    and then run
    sysctl -p
    Please note that in some cases /sys/block/vda/ can also be /sys/block/sda/. It depends on your OS and installation type (ISO or Template).

    Another I/O tweak is to mount your partition with noatime. This can be done by opening /etc/fstab
    vi /etc/fstab
    and adding noatime to the options of the / file system, e.g. like this:
    proc /proc proc defaults 0 0
    # / was on /dev/sda1 during installation
    UUID=bf175032-898a-4883-a702-ca0ab9e51d1d / ext4 noatime,errors=remount-ro 0 1
    # swap was on /dev/sda5 during installation
    UUID=2d7209ed-b4c1-4bb6-96f2-73d7ba82ca9b none swap sw 0 0
    /dev/scd0 /media/cdrom0 udf,iso9660 user,noauto 0 0
    You don't have to reboot the system for the changes to take effect - the following command will do:
    mount -o remount /

    Network Optimization
    If your network connection is limited to 100Mbps, your Network Card configuration in SolusVM is probably set to Realtek 8139. Please use the Intel PRO/1000 or Virtio network card setting to be able to use all of your 1Gbps connection.

    Additionally please append the following lines to the /etc/sysctl.conf file:
    net.core.rmem_max=16777216
    net.core.wmem_max=16777216
    net.ipv4.tcp_rmem=4096 87380 16777216
    net.ipv4.tcp_wmem=4096 65536 16777216
    After saving the file, type sysctl -p for the changes to take effect.

    CPU model :  QEMU Virtual CPU version (cpu64-rhel6)
    Number of cores : 1
    CPU frequency :  2266.746 MHz
    Total amount of ram : 244 MB
    Total amount of swap : 0 MB
    System uptime :   22 min,       
    Download speed from CacheFly: 95.9MB/s 
    Download speed from Coloat, Atlanta GA: 22.4MB/s 
    Download speed from Softlayer, Dallas, TX: 35.7MB/s 
    Download speed from Linode, Tokyo, JP: 12.4MB/s 
    Download speed from i3d.net, Rotterdam, NL: 5.70MB/s

    Well I didn't change anything, just did another test and I/O seems to be a lot better now then couple of minutes ago..

    dd if=/dev/zero of=iotest bs=64k count=16k conv=fdatasync && rm -fr iotest
    16384+0 records in
    16384+0 records out
    1073741824 bytes (1.1 GB) copied, 9.90372 s, 108 MB/s
    

    -edit: I'm using the Debian 7.3 template.

    from that guide, before adjustment, the IO of my vps is about 50~60MB/s
    after that, the IO is about 100MB/s

    FYI, most default /etc/rc.local end with "exit 0" so make sure you that you edit it to move the "exit 0" below the commands added by these recommendations.

    PS, signed up for the $1 deal and so far so good; looks like one of the best deals on LET in quite a while!

    Yup! this and the yearly bluevm VPS has been one of the best deal I've seen in a long time..

    This VPS does work quite well.. I keep checking back once in a while to see if they have restocked but don't think it's going to happen.

  • @earl said:

    @earl, Yeah, but I don't do yearly deals ... enough experiences with "runners" so I don't do more than quarterly with any host.

    ONE exception: Prometeus. Still have a super cheap yearly OpenVZ deal with them. They shall remain the only exception to that rule. Otherwise, I don't do yearly (and I don't do OpenVZ) on any more VPS.

    Any preview of what's coming up next? Maybe something in Canada with around the same price range?

  • Nothing in Canada yet... Bringing online another new node in LA in a week or so. Intel Xeon 2x E5520 48GB RAM RAID 10 LSI 9271/BBU Thinking of some good pricing for this node.

  • @ReviewLinux said: Another I/O tweak is to mount your partition with noatime.

    Another comment about the tweaks: it may be safer to use relatime instead of noatime in /etc/fstab mount options because noatime can impact some applications. Relatime should give you a similar performance gain, but keep most all applications happy & content.
