Erm... What ? They should know that already...
Besides, this isnt for support or promoting only, also I do not agree that posting here is only drama, but to each his own.

Not sure about that. I'm on node kvm03.

Did that. Ticket #959741. Got this answer from Anthony:

I'm sorry, can't deal with him.-
Moreover, I've experienced kernel panics and seen garbled text on the tty (memory corruption?). That's on a fresh install...
Sorry, I may have missed it in your earlier posts, but what OS is this? How did you partition and format the drive space? Your dd tests look as if you used ext3, ext4 will give you much better results.
I'd say he uses xfs (at least the module is loaded and used).
xfs 723141 1
Along with joydev, I fail to see how this can be anything but a walk in the park.
Using xfs on KVM is quite a bad idea.
The XFS FAQ says:
My best experiences:
buyvm +1
kazila
hostigation
and worst experiences:
virpus
ubservers
nqhost
citynethost
volumedrive
I'll start off with the worst and post my bests later:
1) uptimevps - didnt get vps, had to fight to get money back
2) nordicvps - frequent downtimes, severe service throttling
3) hostrail Windows VPS - was crap but provided a lot of laughs (Linux vps were okay)
4) 123Systems - horrible performance - lots of outages/reboots
5) bluevm - terrible IO performance making vps unusable for even basic tasks- not even worth the $2 for the 'anniversary special'
Dishonorable mentions would be
EDIS Sweden location for instability
BuyVM 128MB KVM for its extreme variability in its performance.
+1
@JoeMerit bluevm io poor but not that bad. its just the vps goes down and does not start. happens frequently now.
@jcaleb their California node was under DDoS for the last couple of days. My VPS on their California node goes down every now and then because of it but the Illinois node has been up for a long time so idk. BlueVM has been doing pretty well for me
We do have new hardware being setup right now that should fix any IO issues as well as automated detection of IO abuse.
Its nice you aren't trying to deny it. Good luck on your new hardware & monitoring.
lol i thought i was the only one that used them
best experiences:
allsimple.net
lfcvps
hostigation
inceptionhosting
@HalfEatenPie i just hope when they start their node, they also automatically restart all vps.
@JoeMerit +1 to allsimple.net
Yes, Allsimple deserves a lot more buzz than they get around here
I've only used them for a little over 2 months but maybe I'll post a review.
Because allsimple is not active here. But my uptime is great. Support is great too.
+1
That is true, but he is active on IRC.
I usually read posts here also, I should try to comment more.
Or posts offers more frequently?
I will do again soon.
Yes, the old node still has problems.
If you want we can move you to the new ones, which will result in an IP change however.

Yes, this is why you got a dishonorable mention rather than being on my actual worst experience list
EDIS is great at letting people move to new locations if there is a problem.
