In sum, in the strict sense, netcup's Root-Servers don't have CPU passthrough, but they nevertheless have "more CPU passthrough" than netcup's vServers have.

By the way, netcup's Root-Servers do have CPU passthrough, but they don't allow nested virtualization.

Never change, netcup.

Netcup offer more SAS storage for those who need more space than the paltry SSD offered but the extra they charge for CPU passthrough and their odd billing philosophies make it inconvenient. On my inq

If you plan on do a lot of compiling on a VPS, it would be best to get a VPS with a "dedicated core" (or more than one dedicated core). For example, netcup's Root-Servers fall into t

I think I created and destroyed more than 20 instances on Hetzner in the last 5 months or so. It would be painful to do the same with netcup.

Tl;dr: If you plan to rent netcup vps for several months by all means go for it. If you wanna spin up and destroy VMs rather go with the other big players.

Netcup's dedicated core vps have monthly-only billing, so you have to compare them to dedicated servers, not Hetzner VPS.

I suspect that few of us on LET have used netcup's non-promotional vServers. (Their promotional vServers are not based on hourly billing.)

When you order a Netcup VPS Server (i.e. not the root server) and you switch it off and you don't use the credit till then end of the billing period is the remaining credit deducted at the end of the

It wouldn't be a fair comparison, though. Netcup has dedicated cores, Hetzner does not and the performance can't be sustained. Netcup has Xeon Gold 6140 cores, Hetzner has (likely) Silver 4114 cores.

If someone have both Hetzner CX41 and Netcup RS 2000 G8, I'd love to see the iops and CPU performance differences.

Netcup's advantages here don't seem to outweigh the billing pain, at least for this product. Their more interesting products are the root servers imho, because of dedicated cpu.

I have always been curious to see how the two cheapest options for a VPS offered by netcup and Hetzner compare with each other. So I went for it and purchased both to run some benchmarks. Here are the
