I'm noticing that the N2800 is pretty slow! I have kloxo with installatron and I can really notice the lag!
Never used an atom before, the slowest I have ever use was the AMD 2218 from Datashack and that seem to perform reasonably well, the passmark of the N2800 seem to suggest a similar performance to a Pentium 4/D and Athlon 64's, I don't recall any of those CPU lagging so much..
@earl are you sure it's the CPU and not the disk for instance? What does top show?
Not that it's super slow, but noticeable from all my other server..there no iowait or anything just seems process takes longer to execute and complete??
I'm just saying that there is nothing on the server as of yet I wonder how it performs when you have an active website?

If it's an N2800 Kimsufi, it should have 2GB.
Also, Apache? How about a lighter web server such as Lighttpd or Nginx?
That drive's performance is pretty bad compared to my N2800 Kimsufi:
dd if=/dev/zero of=iotest bs=64k count=16k conv=fdatasync && rm -fr iotest

16384+0 records out

it's actually a container from proxmox.. I was just playing around with it.. was going to post the TOP for the host but it was too long haha..
It's actually kloxo, it seems to get buggier with every update!
I had a heck of a time switching Bind to tinyDNS cause tiny refused to start..
same thing with the webserver I tried switching to lighttpd but its having issues starting so have to play around with it a bit more..
on a good note I got Installatron to work! so at least it's good to try out some software..
I have to agree it's not the greatest it's a Toshiba drive.. I like the seagate drive that I have at WII much better..
couple more test and the best was this:
dd if=/dev/zero of=iotest bs=64k count=16k conv=fdatasync && rm -fr iotest
16384+0 records in
16384+0 records out

It it OpenVZ-based Proxmox, or KVM(QEMU)? If latter, it would explain a lot.
I'd say just nuke Proxmox and try just installing OS directly on the hardware.
It's OVZ, just for fun I tried installing centos on KVM with hardware acceleration disabled since the Atom is not intel vt capable, and it literally took 24 hours for the install to complete lol!
After all that it still did not boot..can't recall what the error was.
Yeah but I like proxmox, was gonna get another one and maybe play around with clustering.. maybe when they re-stock the kimsufi special, or I might get the i3 for $39.
It's actually quite impressive that proxmox actually installed on an Atom!
@PandoGulf : in the ticket I created I marked to notify the responsible. I have the impression sometimes response is very slow and on other times it is fast.
Not sure if anybody knows. I use to remember that the free edition of installatron use to allow you to install on one domain plus any subdomain you create, but now it only allows me to install on a sub-directory of the first domain I use..
Is this new or am I remembering it wrong?
use to be :
AnySubDomain.example.com
now:
www.example.com/SubDirectoryOnly
As promised, here is a copy of the offer.
I had a response this morning for the suport telling that free ip failover was only for Canadian... it's an absolute nonsense.
I'm in my 5 steps of grief: Denial-Anger-Bargaining-Depression-Acceptance.
And now i'm full speed in Anger.
@Bob_v2 relax man, it is a good offer even without the IPs. Everyone can make mistakes, and they indeed had the previous page there with Canadian Atom/4GB/2TB offer with free IPs. So a copy-paste error sounds plausible. I doubt many people bought this one specifically because they saw there were 4 IPs, and if they did, most likely OVH can cancel and refund without too much issues (especially since you have the webpage copy). But it is not reasonable to demand that they "stand by the promise" or somesuch, and give the IPs, I think. And personally I will not ask for a refund just over this either.
Another hard hit to the VPS industry :P
And now i'm full speed in Anger.
After thinking it over I think it's a good deal.. and I guess you can purchase the IP's on a monthly basis..
Seems that the ip failover can't cancel after a month. The only way to cancel the ip is to cancel the server?
This was indeed true some months earlier, but a couple of days ago I was checking in ManagerV3, and noticed you can now select the duration of your failover IP purchase, you can get it for 1 month only, for 3 months, etc. Looks like it is now independent from the server lease.
Your're right... I have to try the bargaining phase. :-)
As @RM_ mentioned I think you can now, but I was just saying you don't have to pay yearly for the IP's.. paying 1-3 euro p/m is better than say 12-36 euro up front.
@rm_ @earl
Thanks. Didn't notice the changes.
Ha, Thinking of ordering 3 ip failover on each ks and failover to one ks server. Don't know if it possible or not
They added a little more stock. I got one this time :-)
Just got the last one.. thanks for sharing!!
There's one more in stock. Was going to get it, but then decided that I didn't want to scan and email/fax a copy of my ID and financial account statements to the other side of the world.
I only had to scan my old college ID card that had a photo and an envelope with my current address.. but yeah you would probably end up having to pay VAT if you wanted in on the special cause it would take them two days to authorize your documents..
i got an angry letter back from OVH support regarding the IPs
Can someone please post the original web page ...
@Bob_v2 posted it up top but here is the link anyways..
http://www.calameo.com/read/00219027250f54423c56e
Thanks @Bob_V2 and @earl
Sure thing.. Let us know if you get the IP's
how much time it took them to ready your servers, i did a mks 2g order last saturday, it's still waiting for payment approvement.
anyone in same situation?
and do they continue to give n2800 cpus with mks 2G ?
usually 2-3 days
It's just a matter of luck
