is this normal speeds?

system feels extremely slow even for basic tasks

That’s suprisingly slow, especially for the larger block sizes

The 4k and even 64k aren’t THAT bad considering it’s a storage offer based on HDD (I guess?)

512k and 1m is bad, they’re about 1/10th of what I’d like to see

It's likely from people benching their servers. I've had this server since 2018 or 2019 - just tested a few minutes ago

Alpha's been one of the best providers I've been with. Try it again later and if anything, @AlexBarakov is around and might be able to give you a hand.

Guys, we're actively working on deploying all orders. As of now - all VMs are provisioned and around 10 dedicated machines are pending.

Bandwidth will be doubled for everyone on Monday, in one batch.
