    Are you planning to torrent like there's no tomorrow?

    Correctly

    Time4VPS fits your storage needs but not sure if they allow seedboxes 247

    Hi,
    What would the memory requirements? 1GB-4GB?

    2G + is prefered but 1G is also OK.

    Ok, hope the package below would be of a help.

    1 vCPU

    512 MB RAM + 512MB Free bonus upgrade

    100GB storage

    1 IPv 4

    1gbit shared unmetered

    France Location

    $2.99 per month

    KVM Virtualization

    Order Link

    Activation is not instant, will take few minutes to be ready after the orders has been accepted due as extra ram increase

    I always find it odd how many hosts jump at the chance to host seed boxes :)

    @racksx Seems to jump at the chance of any business at all.

    Such a coincidence. I have already been your customer about a year ago when you were called rackhost. And now I am still using your 200GB storage VPS for 5 USD a month.

    Plus one for them, I am also using their VM box for backups.

    I plan to test the server.
    Do you know where can an IP to ping the server ?

    Whatever happened to @AshleyUK? I was reading some disparaging stuff about them the other day, and wasn't sure if I felt good about not jumping on their storage special or not.

    Some performance issues.

    There is this update:

    We are currently undergoing some CEPH Expansion tasks to improve performance and capacity.
    
    You will notice an impact in I/O performance during this time.

    Currently this is how its on my server:

    dd if=/dev/zero of=/srv/testfile bs=1G count=5 oflag=direct
    5+0 records in
    5+0 records out
    5368709120 bytes (5.4 GB, 5.0 GiB) copied, 111.124 s, 48.3 MB/s
    

    Way down from the 150MB/s I got in the beginning. It seems to be oversold too much. Which is expected since the promo is still going on, afaik?

    Huh. Maybe I should keep the garbage dedi for backups, then.

    find /vz/root -name '*.iso' -o -name '*.mp4' -o -name '*.mov' -o -name '.torrent'

    It's usable for backups, even if rheumatic. No downtime so far.

    Pff. 48.3MB/s? That's amazing. Check the read speed on the CEPH storage. You'll be baffled.

    Ah, also recorded a quick video: https://s.flamz.pw/video/diskspeed.mp4

    I get ~37MB/s write speeds to the CEPH storage, and 50.6MB/s write on the main drive.
