Looking for KVM in Europe ~15 USD yearly

Can be even 64 MB RAM / 2 GB HDD, etc. Whole Europe, including Eastern like Ukraine or Romania (Russia is good as well). Do you know any? Bitcoins as payment is very desired.

  • Thanks a lot. Shared IPv4 is pretty OK, but dedicated one would be better.

    Will be a bit tough on the budget.
    Not so far away though: http://torqhost.com/virtual_private_servers/kvm

  • FYI KVM + 64MB ram will never end well. Personally 256 is my preffered min. 128 is bare min

    We can do 128MB of RAM @ 5GB RAID-1 SATA and bandwidth transfer of 500GB/mo. (10mbit/s*) at €9.99 EUR/yr. Virtualization type is KVM with Custom ISOs supported and unlimited Anti-DDoS. You can click here to see all of the SATA plans we have in case you are interested :-)

    Paypal and Bitcoin are both accepted

    (*) you receive 1Gbps network speed, but due to the low specifications (low RAM), this automatically becomes 10mbit/s, not because of a limit we impose on your server.

    Update: you can work this around if you follow FrankZ's fix!

    Great offers you've sent, thanks guys. Still I'm waiting for more to choose the best one. Don't hestitate to PM me if you are a hosting provider. :-)

    Yes, you've right Tom, 128 MB RAM is should be minimum for KVM.

    How interesting

    I wonder are you really that incompetent and actually believe this yourself, or think LET users don't know any better and b/s like that will pass without any questions.

    Ah Sorry but 128MB is not the minimum, MySQL + Webserver+ Mailserver running on a 64MB KVM without issues.

    You can buy a dedicated IPv4 with LHC :)

    I apologize for the misunderstanding - what was intended is that the download speed wouldn't go beyond 10mbit/s. I have executed the commands for you on a machine of 128MB of RAM - notice how the speed is different knowing that we haven't setup any limits on the machine, and that the network speed is open to up to 1Gbps:

    If you could try to download the same file and post the speed it would help greatly in identifying the issue as it might be from our side after all.

    Pretty sure my deepnetsolutios 64MB OpenVZ NAT VPS in Canada downloads much faster...

    I would think the same as it's a container virtualization, but I'd be thankful if someone tries this on a KVM server with 128MB of RAM - I'm sure it might help identify the issue, if somebody has got the time to do so of course!

    Swapping will kill your RAID 1 array if you are going to sell so small VPSs. Also 128 MB RAM shouldn't be a reason for so low network speeds.

    Somewhere you did, double-check your settings. This is a typical picture of uncapped upload, but capped (to exactly 10 Mbit) download.

    Yes, we did double-check, there are no limits imposed on the network speed or otherwise.

    interesting how many concurrent users, I am guessing 1?

  • NeoonNeoon Community Contributor, Veteran

    @httpzoom with DB optimisation 10-15 users. It just used about 40-55MB, so no issue.

    @Verelox You could try this inside the KVM and see if the speed improves...

    echo "net.core.rmem_max=16777216" >> /etc/sysctl.conf
    echo "net.core.wmem_max=16777216" >> /etc/sysctl.conf
    echo "net.ipv4.tcp_rmem=4096 87380 16777216" >> /etc/sysctl.conf
    echo "net.ipv4.tcp_wmem=4096 65536 16777216" >> /etc/sysctl.conf
