    BuyVM announces free CPU upgades on all 256MB+ OVZ's in Las Vegas

    Honestly, if I knew we'd have as many choopa caused network issues as we have, I'd probably have reconsidered the other offers I had in the area. The fact they were being so unreasonable hasn't helped. Their V4 network is fantastic but for a company that prided itself on being V6 ready in the...

    BuyVM announces free CPU upgades on all 256MB+ OVZ's in Las Vegas

      Given BIOS updates, RAID card firmware updates, actual hardware replacements, etc, I think around 40 minutes for node bootup is about the best we can do :( It's a lot better than the 2 hour window we were booking :) We never announced NJ upgrades, we simply said that they were on the TODO...

    BuyVM announces free CPU upgades on all 256MB+ OVZ's in Las Vegas

    Usually we just sell it. This time we have a use for some of it so it's going to that side project :) What's wrong with my formatting? :( Francisco

    BuyVM announces free CPU upgades on all 256MB+ OVZ's in Las Vegas

    I saw no reason to jump to V3's because of the RAM. The difference in performance simply wasn't enough to justify that big of a cost jump. The L5638/L5639's are going to a different project anyway so it all works out nicely :) Francisco

    BuyVM announces free CPU upgades on all 256MB+ OVZ's in Las Vegas

    I couldn't find any that were decent on power in the V3 series. Anything in the ~60 range was high core, low Mhz, which wouldn't be of much use to people. Below 2Ghz is simply dumb. Some of the delays are due to firmware flashing and things like that. In the past year since the SSD upgrade...

    How do you prevent server from DDoS

    syncookies can help you with very very small stuff but past that you'll need actual filtering or a datacenter with some kind of autonull to ride things out for you. - fail2ban would help stop containers from getting rooted but that'd have to be installed inside each VPS. - ddos-deflate is...

    BuyVM announces free CPU upgades on all 256MB+ OVZ's in Las Vegas

    We suspect about an hour. We're just wanting to normalize our configurations between DC's since NJ has E5's and it helps in spots. Francisco

    BuyVM announces free CPU upgades on all 256MB+ OVZ's in Las Vegas

    Hello Everyone! Along with a slew of other freebies coming down the pipe, I just wanted to announce that starting next week we'll be upgrading all 256MB+ plans in Las Vegas to E5 2630L's as well as upgrading the SSD caching we use on all 128MB plans. This upgrade is one of many freebies on...

    Windows 10 anyone?

    I haven't had a chance to play with it but the screenshots looked good so far. I'm looking to reinstall soon but I'm wondering if I should wait for Windows 10 and hope for a spring time release. I never liked doing 'in place' upgrades (7->8, 8->10) so my next reinstall will likely stick for a...

    BuyVM.NET / BuyShared.NET - Shared - $5/year | Resellers - $2.00/month! Dedicated IPv4! SSD RAID!

    Sure send those over. If you know what your old server ran (apache, etc) then I can see about tweaking things even more. Litespeed has some caching options but they're not very good. It's great if you have a single user refreshing your site every second but nothing else. Francisco

    LET Down?

    Hoooly shit Husky joined. If the threads on LE were true then sz1 dug their own grave so taking it out on LE doesn't help anyone, it just makes him worse off. Supposedly one of the emails posted was them admitting that they're barely breaking even if not about to go bankrupt because the...
