You bastard. Crocodile Dundee had almost faded out of my long-term memory and released whatever brain cells it was holding onto, and now you've swapped it back in and it'll be another 30 years before it expires...

We've learned you can stuff 16 static websites on a 64MB VPS, but this is just ridiculous.
You have no business plan, chances are this will only last a year (heck, less possibly), and you're pricing it to seem like there is no cost what-so-ever on the node side.
Yes, 32MB's is "LowEnd", but the pricepoint of the matter is really what makes something "LowEnd". I assume you made this in 5 minutes after reading the thread on LET.

And that right there is *exactly* the problem plaguing the VPS market - focusing on quantity over quality. Not that I have any expectations of his foolhardy dream to make it more than a few gasping steps before stumbling into obscurity - but the "most resources at lowest sale price" crap is precisely why fewer people trust VPSes, especially OpenVZ, anymore.

Holy tractor trailer hits a trailer loaded with sewer crap which hits a bus full of nuns.I look up to more greenvaluehost not chris.
I want to shake a few things up to change the lowend thing.
future monthly plans include 16gb ram for $7 per month
If you look up to GVH, you need to step away.. Turn off the monitor.. Go outside.. Look for some people doing work, real people. Then start re-defining everything. New role models, yo'!
I won't bore you, but GVH shouldn't be anyones role model. It's a textbook example of too many good people enabling someone who shouldn't be in this industry. It's an unsustainable business model (i.e. only can survive at ColoCrossing).. Cause you know, they have some special pricing, like they own an Intel chip fabricator or something... ahahrehem bullshit. For you, special price, you pay twice.
You realize that GHV-Jonny's role model is Fabozzi, right? Which makes the statement of who and what about 10x funnier to me. Scandalous-brand-is-us.
16GB of RAM VPS... bahahaha.. somewhere, right now some dumb furless ape is on about that..

In fairness, he was discussing his 32MB idea before that thread...in fact, May 1st, right here on vpsboard...
A ramdisk writeback? Please don't try to host anything. The only reason why memory cache works with hardware RAID cards is because they have a battery backup so if the server crashes, the RAM is kept powered on in the RAID card. If you use standard RAM, it will cause loads of corruption because when the system crashes, the RAM is turned off and therefore cleared. RAM is not persistent data. Let the kernel handle caching to the RAM, it does it automatically with free RAM.
I just want higher dd resaults as people complain if it's below 250MB/S
I'm sure people will complain if they have a non functional corrupt file system after a power/forced hard reboot.
so would it be a good idea to only use writeback on /dev?
should it still be useable?
basic programs like nginx etc... for low traffic websites with cloudflare.
This thread is useful as a list of things NOT to do as a VPS provider.
Writeback for /dev. Why? What would that achieve? Do you do alot of write to the virtual (udev) filesystem that is /dev?
How about instead of trying to produce a fast write speed so clients don't complain you look into the fundamental issues and how you can get the best overall experience for your clients? You know... things like not having 1,000 clients on a single node....

Well let's see.
Ram:
32GB / 32MB is 1024 VM's (That is leaving nothings for host OS nothing for cache)
Disk:
2 * 2TB Disk's Raid 1 Giving you about 100Mb Speed
So each VM would have 0.1Mb I/O Speed!
CPU:
3.2 * 4 = 12.8 GHZ
12.8GHZ / 1000 = 0.0128GHZ per a VM!
Answer:
No probably not as even if you just about have enough RAM for your 1000 VM's, their is going to be absolutely no I/O & CPU available to run something like nginx. Let alone a 1000 copies of an OS.

12.8Mhz per VM:
in testing i used about less then 2mhz on the OS leaving 10.8mhz for programs.
without mysql it should work out at about 6 to 8 mhz used per vm(free offloaded mysql).
ovh disks raid one give about 150MB/S on avages = 1.5MB/S per user.
and it's to be 700 to 1000 vms depending on load.
can asnother host tell me the avage io used per vm please?(yearly only)
