I give you my word, by next week it is going to get much better.
My bozos are gonna put a few more nodes in the mix.
EDIT:
we monitor that frequently, but if some sees something off, report it via a ticket please.
I've just started the migration.
The source server is located in Germany
There are a lot of parameters that can vary the result.... but here are some of my statistics
For what it is worth
For the moment, I'm transferring at a speed of 45.265 MiB/s.
But also at times it goes much lower (17MiB/s) . I've seen peaks of 77MiB/s...
I think it would be better to give you an average transfer rate when it's finished.
ETA 19h21m3s for ~3,4TB
Not bad at all
I use WinSCP (with background threads processing),
the cpu % load is under 10%, most of the time under 6%
Kinda the same as my experience with the box. Files are migrated via SCP from Finland. I don't have many files, just around 600GB or so. iirc final transfer speed averaging around 28MiB/s.
All in all very satisfied considering the price. And should be even better once everyone has settled in.
6% / 10% CPU usage to transfer files at 50 Mb/s with an encryption layer?
That doesn't sound like much to me, unless you're transferring unencrypted via FTP. And even then!
I don't know how optimized rclone is, since I'm literally bombarding the cpu. Probably not that optimized.
Still, I'm surprised by your numbers
Similar experience, I moved just over 900GB from AMS using rsync so not the most optimal and it sat around 28MiB/s the entire time. Very pleased for the price.
I am good customer, so I don't transfer anything at all
@Moopah - THX!
I guess you are still waiting for the IOPS to return?
No, I will never transfer anything. It will sit in silence like a good idler should.
I am respectful customer
@Moopah
Windows Server OS can be pretty optimized if used properly.
As far as I could remember, rclone wouldn't eat too much CPU resources. It's just a bit too slow when doing daily syncs with a lot of small files. So I moved to kopia for mainly taking care of the daily backups, and rclone for syncing to local backup drives once a month.
I moved around 300G data with 50k+ files to Host-C with kopia last night, from a DE server, done in 1h40min. Pretty satisfied. Though the CPU usage was kept on above 60%+ last night, maybe mainly due to the backup was done through Tailscale + 12 threads with kopia. I'll test a new backup tonight without using Tailscale.
Thank you @host_c , very nice offer and very good service so far!
Has it already been decided if and when there will be a restock?
~ 2 weeks, depending on import and customs.
Strange in my case it's rather cpu-intensive.
I created a LUKS partition out of habit so this inevitably affects the cpu load a little. But normally, with AES.... The impact on performance is minimal
If I remembered the right way, rclone could be a bit cpu-intensive on the source, but should not take too much CPU power on the destination machine.
Sometimes, when the destination machine's HDD is much too busy, like host-c now might be, the CPU usage could also be higher than usual.
That is true.
ok guys/ladies/gents, bonus round
First 3 that will comment the correct answer to the question, get migrated over Xeon Gold 6130 node
Question;
when was "The Hunt for Red October" first released in cinema
march 1990
March 2 1990
march 2 1990 then lol
1990 scratch that, I like my current CPU
March 2, 1990
This movie was initially scheduled for release in December 1989. However, the filmmakers decided to delay the release until March 1990 due to the crowded holiday season and to allow more time for post-production work.
This decision ultimately proved beneficial, as the film performed well at the box office and received positive reviews upon its release in March.
Late to the party but anyway
2nd March 1990

@dev_vps +1 for the most precise answer.
@Moopah , are you sure? AVX-512 + memory bandwidth, 119.21 GiB/s VS 76.8 GB/s
For some applications, instruction set will win over Frequency.
Congratulations to the winners!!!
Thanks, @host_c
Greatly appreciated.
also, should boost to a higher frequency than an a E5-2690v4 (aka better single core geekbench on yabs
), let’s see tomorrow.
Thanks @host_c!
@host_c I thought you were share the same time zone as me, but why the nice things always happened during my sleep.
