  • One more test just now. IO still the same. With this terrible IO, I don't think you can sell any here. Need to work on it.

    Is their any particular reason you are using the dsync flag?

    dd if=/dev/zero of=test.bin bs=64k count=16k conv=fsync

    Without it, it just means everything is cached by the OS or whatever and is not a real indication of anything other than that there is lots of memory.

    I've got someone at the data center investigating the low IO. We will have a new node up soon that is much much better.

  • I have re-installed with Debian. Still prefer Debian compare to Ubuntu on server.

    I put Yahei php Prober on this trial VPS

    Have a look

    http://3i6.net/

    With no many clients load on this note, the server is performing quite well.

    Good connection to all the place.

    100 Mbps port connection.

    I think I am done with testing.

    Next task is to monitor the uptime. Only will have result after 20 to 30 days from now.

  • trewqtrewq Administrator, Patron Provider

    All servers have been upgraded to:
    4 Cores (Fair share)
    512MB RAM
    1024MB Swap
    15GB HDD
    175GB Bandwidth @ 100Mbps

    Enjoy!

  • @trewq Thanks

    My full LAMP only use

    Real Memory Used 30.71 M , Real Memory Free 481.29 M , Rate 6 %

    Even I loaded full wordpress with 2k posts, 30k comments, I think this upgrade memory still can handle it if it is under low traffic.

    Will try this next week. Can't find any free time now.

    Just noticed your emails went to Spam in GMail, the vps looks nice now.

    That's strange it shouldn't have gone to SPAM. Oh well as long as it's all working.

    Glad you like it!

    Surprised nobody commented on the fact that the node has drives in RAID0. Why go RAID 0 if this is supposed to be a test of the product you're going to be offering?

    Do you plan to have your disks in RAID 0 on your production nodes? Sketchy.

  • trewqtrewq Administrator, Patron Provider

    It was setup in RAID0 by mistake by the datacenter. Production nodes will NOT be in RAID0. Having no redundancy in a production environment is one of the dumbest things that can be done.

    3 more available.

    4 Cores (Fair share)
    512MB RAM

    just got an email
    "This is an email to let you know the trial will be ending in approximately a week."
    "You do have the option of keeping your VPS with us for only $4/month."

    "You do have the option of keeping your VPS with us for only $4/month."

    That's when the trial will end however we will not be removing VPSs until we do not have enough room on the node for paying customers. This means that some of the current trial users may get a few more months.

    The option to continue with us is there just in case people want to keep the VPS. It is up to them.

    no more 128 and 256 product in the future?

  • trewqtrewq Administrator, Patron Provider

    @ISM said: no more 128 and 256 product in the future?

    Those are still available. Send me an email at brendan[@]versatileit.com.au if you want one or open a ticket. Well have another node coming up before the end of the trial that will be dedicated to the 128 and 256 plans.
