Phase-7 Downtime, Downtime and useless support

DalekOfSkaro

I just ran a test on one of our upcoming budget KVM VPS's for kicks:

root@testing:~# dd if=/dev/zero of=1g bs=1M count=1024
1024+0 records in
1024+0 records out
1073741824 bytes (1.1 GB) copied, 2.98438 s, 360 MB/s

512 MB Ram / 1 GB Swap / 4 x E3-1240v3 CPU Cores ... Not to bad I guess.. We actually plan on selling this package for $5.00/mo

Seems they forget to disable showing info about downtime

I felt compelled to run DD today for no reason, this is what I got out of a 256MB VPS I have hosting my website. DD is not a good test, but if the node is so overloaded that you cannot break 10MB/s, there is problems. I'd advise looking elsewhere.

[root@ovz2 ~]# dd if=/dev/zero of=1g bs=1M count=1024
1024+0 records in
1024+0 records out
1073741824 bytes (1.1 GB) copied, 1.88995 s, 568 MB/s

[root@ovz2 ~]# dd of=/dev/null if=1g bs=1M count=1024
1024+0 records in
1024+0 records out
1073741824 bytes (1.1 GB) copied, 0.531537 s, 2.0 GB/s
