I was just skimming around for dedicated server providers, and noticed that LeaseWeb also has a VPS product line . Very typical budget offering starting from 4.90€. What catches the eye here is that the smallest and cheapest S product has a 40GB disk, along with 1GB RAM and 1 CPU vCore. 40 gigs is v…

After intensive googling, I found reports suggesting that the CPU is reported as QEMU 2.6GHz. Did not find any comparable benchmarks. Note that the price is VAT-exclusive, so the real cost is a bit more. Edit: Just noticed that LeaseWeb has an affiliate program. This means that one can implement a…

Not sure what your budget is, there’s lot of cheap offerings out there. If you are looking for something with lots of power, space, ram, CPU’s and a truly excellent network have a look at the OVH offerings. Have a look specifically at their Proxmox offerings which allow you run all your servers as V…

Actually I skimming through the lowest price category options. That is the most frequently asked question here and I have a couple of tiny development projects going on. I also have one bigger community and that is currently hosted by UpCloud. I was a customer of OVH and was generally very pleased …

Well, it accumulates if you have many sites and you run them for a long period of time. I decided to test this - their offering is most interesting. Unfortunately they seem to do manual validation of new customers, even though I paid with a credit card and was already validated by my bank. Damn, I …

I guess that is a good thing even though an inconvenience, considering how many customers fake details to get servers. Would mean you are at least entering a relatively clean and monitored network. Apple did this to me recently with my Apple Developer ID, had to manually email them ID documents / Dr…

Okay, I finally got my small S box. Their setup process is super bureaucratic. CPU model: QEMU Virtual CPU version 1.2.1 Number of cores: 1 CPU frequency: 2199.996 MHz Total amount of RAM: 992 MB Total amount of swap: MB System uptime: 8:23, I/O speed: 78.7 MB/s Bzip 25MB: 4.83s Downlo…

Well, not sure about that. These are sold as “SSD”, but the site also says: Access enterprise-class storage and cutting-edge technology. We store your data twice – across separate racks to ensure redundancy. We also use the fastest enterprise SAS drives available – and mirror them to double their …

78.7 mb/sec is not that, though. Your basic generic no-name SATA SSD will do 300mb/sec no problem. And a nice one will do 500mb/sec. Super fancy M.2 PCI SSDs will do over 1gb/sec.

Ouch those I/O numbers are brutally bad. Definitely HDD not SSD.
