    Who are your favorite higher-end providers?

    Well my Linode's were in London too. Haven't had any downtime for 3 years :) no crashes or anything at all. But Linode has moved to high density nodes. Previously they had 40 512MB VPS limit per node. And those nodes were dual L5520's. But with the upgrades they have moved to big E5-2670's and...

    Who are your favorite higher-end providers?

    I was using Linode for 2 years until I moved out to Ramnode. I never got disk speeds more than 100MB/s in the last months I was there. After the CPU upgrades almost everyone saw constant very high CPU steal like 20% and there is a long thread about it on linode forums.  this SSD cached thingy...

    Yeah doc told me to visit him again in 3 months.  I'm 22 but I will get a blood sugar and cholesterol check done ASAP. I'm 6ft tall and weigh about 83KG at the moment.  My vision seems to be abnormally better wearing these glasses :) I can read small fonts on my 13inch laptop screen from about...

    Ideas and suggestions for vpsBoard

    @WelltodoInformalCattle Meh  <_<  @MannDude Well you don't have to listen to everyone :) If BuyVM works for you without any issues I think you should stick to them. Too much transparency isn't going to help anyone. Its true some people will argue about using a provider who frequents here but...

    planning a free failover dns hosting (Budgetgeek Telecoms dns)

    If somebody is paranoid about DNS and its features, spending $0.50 per zone would be better than using free DNS with only 2 servers. Amazon has many POPs out there. You really cant beat the price and flexibility.  Let aside Amazon this market is really crowded. I suggest you to put your time...

    Hardware Porn (aka our new backups node)

    why? It may come handy for KVM but not for OpenVZ. Why encrypt backups when all files are available in clear form in the node

    Fixed: Some users couldn't post this morning

    1 step closer to the cluster :P

    Hardware Porn (aka our new backups node)

    So the ultimate question is that 80TB enough for 70+ openvz nodes that you have in LV? :)
