ReactOS sucked last year when i last tested it, nothing was really working.
Did it improve some ?
Regarding abuse with windows on OVZ, we dont forbid it, but it depends on your windows skills. Some installs really hog CPU/disk. If anything, give it a lot of ram and try disabling swap.
Trying to run it on 128 RAM OVZ will probably fail, but even if it is succeeding, it will hog the disk/cpu too badly to be allowed.
I think at least 1 GB ram is needed and allow at least 256 MB for win, even if 98, while 512 would be in order for XP. Minimal installs will also be a good idea with non-essential services disabled.
It will certainly run in less, but it wont be happy and neither will be your host.
Haha, the provider won't be happy. Thanks for your point
it was completely unusable when i tested it, but that was probably 3 years ago
...and there are some openvz hosts who consider a steady load of 1.00 (on a plan with 4 cores) to be excessive. Case in point..the 5GB offer on LEB's front page from LetBox:
5 minutes later, he corrected himself to lower the load
We have ppl going over 4 all the time (4 cores plan), only hear from me when they go over 10 for hours.
Still, the average load is well below 50%, so i wonder...

Yeah, my VPSes with RamNode spike above 4 cores during gaming peaks and unless it is prolonged or extremely high load I never have an issue with them.
