That's a fair use... but wget'ing files to run up a bandwidth quota isn't.why not fair? since you buy 100TB plan??? I still don't get it.
for example I run backup script every 1-2 hours, and consume about 500 GB that not allowed??
To be fair, there's a difference between utilizing your VPS and abusing resources for the sake of abusing resources. I've terminated and refunded many people who wget cron test files to fill up disk space then rm -rf it, or consume large amount of network for no valid reason.why not fair? since you buy 100TB plan??? I still don't get it.

We actually are going to be buying our own Dual L5420s and colocating them in our own rack space, however as you may have been aware of already, ColoCrossing is currently having issues with space in their facilities and we're waiting on them to get the things that we need to get done. Our 1st priority right now is improving conditions for our existing clients by moving them over to pure SSD raid 10 nodes as soon as possible.
L5420s love power..
Based on tests I've seen they run about 1.5 amps to 2 amps consistently however though it's worth it for their capabilities vs. CC's standard E3 server line.
Based on what tests exactly? Have a looksie here:
I was referring to their capabilities to handle a bigger work load
How can something perform a bigger work load when it is far less efficient, slower, and a dinosaur in processor years compared to an E3.
Just stating the facts. I don't know where his "tests" came from but wanted to clear that up..
When you sell the plans that we do, it'll be more beneficial to have extra RAM and extra cores. Primarily for the extra RAM though, we'd prefer the Dual L5420.
You say for more cores? They both primarily have the same amount of cores. The L5420 may have more physical cores than the E3's, but no hyper threading like the E3's. When it comes to work load they out perform the 5420's. You want to be able to put more RAM into a 5420, however the problem you'll face will happen far before you could even use the amount of RAM you're looking to put in one.
