Hmm you're right about the v2, not sure what happened (I looked at the ark page and saw 8 cores and it was a 22nm cpu so it wasn't the v1). Anyway it's 10 cores and maybe 2 sockets, so 20 total cores. You get 8 threads so potentially up to 40% of the total cycles, depending on what other people are doing. Also this is an L series cpu so low power, low frequency, maybe half the speed per core of an E3.
Anyway this seems like a good deal if you have a light or bursty parallelizeable workload. You can get an actual dedi of comparable max speed and 32 ram for about 25 euro and that lets you really use the whole cpu 24/7. So it depends on your requirements.
If vCPUs = cores, yes. But if (more likely) vCPUs = threads, then 8/40 = 20% of the processing power.
More than enough as you have lots of ram. Cache everything in ram using redis varnish or a tmpfs and don't care if the CPU is oversold of i/o crappy. (doesn't work for all uses, of course!)
You don't need CPU, if you have enough RAM. Wut? Logic not found.
Who need CPU these days ? You have RAM
transcoders
No need of CPU, you can transcode with RAM. Way faster.
I bought it and received a node in the US and not NL for some reason..
US IP or Server location
can u please provide more space ? like 1TB HDD or SSD what will be the price then i want o switch one of my vps so please let me know
Already sold out.
Humor. Hence the ""...
But that's logical as well: if you have a crappy CPU (and i/o in my example - not sayin this is the case here, didn't try this VPS) but too much RAM, you'd rather cache all your pages in RAM and serve those directly rather than generate them with php+db to avoid as much CPU and i/o use as possible! Obviously you'd still need some cpu cycle but as little as could be.
Quantity limit reached. If possible, please select a smaller quantity.
whats up with the low unixbench results?
Slow(er) cpu speed + everyone else running tests?
I love these guys.
I'm aware they they oversell, but never overload, I do guess those dedicated cpu cores are oversold as fuck as well, notheless it's clever, because most people do idle anyways and that's the truth imho. I like that there's a 24hr~ wait sometimes for getting a vps activated, manually approving services = less abuse, im high
@exception0x876 can I install virtual box and create my own vm in this vm?
Yes, that's nested virtualization.
Just need to make sure.
edit : it's out of stock anyway, soo.... yeah too bad
Bugger! At least you know now, you can run KVM inside of a KVM where nested virtualization is enabled. Not all CPUs support it, and not all providers will enable it, so it's kinda a prem feature
Yeah, good to know. I though I can only run something like Docker inside KVM
Under normal circumstances, without nested virtualization, that's true. You can also run OpenVZ and LXC containers on a non-nested-enabled system.
KVM on KVM is cool, there's no noticeable difference in performance in my experience.
If you're a Proxmox kinda person you can basically have a "VPS dedi"..
No cc payment :sad
There are cc payments. Use 2checkout as an option.
@exception0x876 any chance this will be available in US/Canada?
Not exactly the same specs, but the package KVM SSD Plus LA is the closest match.
So, still out of stock?
More nodes are coming next month.
