Nah.....just gonna split into as many kvms as possible and bench all at the same time!
and then idle all of em
I hate all German providers on LET. They all sell me idle-and-powerful services (VPSes, root servers, dedicated cores VPSes, NVMe servers, etc.). I am broke!
And some of them don't have page in English, it can be frustrating...
I hate Google for transpating page to English. Then I'm forced to buy.
@PHP_Friends any chance to get a (larger?) routed IPv6 subnet?
Probably doesn't matter, with the new accepted definition of "dedicated" you'll probably find that your dedicated 20gb memory is swapped out to disk by hypervisor anyway at times. I wonder what the oversubscription ratio is.
Swapoff is the only solution.
There is no hard limit. If you use more than 2 TB consequently, we will contact you to find a solution.
As long as resources are available, we can give you the upgrades with 50% discount, yes.
It's possible but unfortunately not for free. If you're interested, please open a ticket
To keep it short: No.
benchmark from a vm running under proxmox
speedtest from tele2
Only 20Gb available now?
@PHP_Friends will be a restock? Maybe the 10Gb option?
No, sorry, this was the last special in this product generation. Everything is sold out. New offers will come, but this will take some time
A little underwhelming. Sustained 6% steal time on idle up to 10%. Does not feel dedicated.
Installation on ssd vps takes around 12 mins, up to 20 mins if vps is on HDD.
This takes 28mins , yet first Colo has good download speeds for most scripts
Edit: installation of Cyberpanel for above
@PHP_Friends is there a party? ^^^^
I'd like to know the steal time when the cpu is actually loaded and doing stuff for long periods. Also keep in mind that the box might be under benchmark pressure right now.
What do you mean? What's the coherency of the bandwidth of our routers and the CPU performance? Updates etc. take longer if the template is older, this is absolutely not a compareable value.
In general: If you encounter any (performance) issues please contact our support. It's impossible for me to give you detailed feedback on specific technical questions in public forums.
Best Regards,
Tim
Forgot to mention installation of Cyberpanel. As it's a script running downloads and installing, network speeds affect total install time. In this case network is good.
Contact has been made.
anyone else having issues with php-friends? I am running without swap but what I am previously able to run; compiling without swap (the same programs updating); it is now killed. I have plenty of ram.
What exactly is killed? Your VPS?
In any case, my VPS is okay. I don't see any issues -- I've just checked.
no just the make/composer process. Seems it's just me than but I'm using some ram tweaks.
just reenable a bit of swap then.
if you have enough memory free it will not hurt the performance at all if swap is enabled, as it will be barely used. still it's pure existence might have an effect on memory allocation by process, kernel and stuff.
it's wrong to believe that disabling swap just because 'there is enough ram' is a good idea or will be of benefit in any way. just let the kernel handle those things, it knows better than you :-P

new NVMe line is out: https://php-friends.de/neuigkeiten/neue-produktgeneration-nvme-server
Noticed already. Just waiting for the next promo tbh 😜🙃 Might take some time but eh.
We had 2C/10GB at 6€ per Month so paying 9€ (for NVME vs SSD) is quite a step-up.
Would excluding VAT help to lower it to around €7.5 per mo?
I don't know how much is the VAT/??
If you pay for 12 months, it would be €8/mo also (including VAT)
That's an impressive upgrade all at once.
This has always confused me about german providers - they all put "flat bandwidth" "fair use" "cost free" "no worries" but then consequently you can only use 3-6 Mbps over the course of a month, some other providers much lower, why not just simply openly display bandwidth prices. I'm not saying it's particularly bad, but it's just strange to me and makes it difficult to comparison shop when for example $provider1's fair use is 10TB and $provider2's is 2TB
Is NVMe really more reliable than Trad SSD?
I thought it was only the interface (speed and latency). The underlying storage is still NAND flash...
What am I missing?
By the way, the bandwidth policy on the new models is given here:
https://php-friends.de/vserver-ssd/traffic
Beyond the limit, the speed is limited to 10 MBit/s.
Dedicated cores : 2 (including Nested Virtualization)
R.A.M. : 20 GB RAM (DDR4 ECC Reg.)
memory : 125 GB SSD storage (RAID-10)
https://php-friends.de/vserver-ssd/vserver-fruehlingsspecial-2019-storage-ssd
I like this offer better though...
Thanks.
