Running Out Of My 512 MB Of RAM With VPS
I recently signed up for a VPS server with 512 MB of RAM. I will be hosting two sites on this VPS server. One is not online yet and I just have a Coming soon page up. The other is a Wordpress blog that is running. I don't have any users yet. But my VPS server is currently using ~410 or my 512 MB. This is with essentially nothing running yet. Does anyone else run their websites with only 512 MB or do I need to upgrade to at least 1 GB? I also checked out which processes are taking up the most (% wise): 5.6 1 /usr/bin/spamd 5.4 2 spamd 3.8 1 /usr/bin/python 3.4 1 /usr/sbin/mysqld 1.7 1 /usr/local/apache/bin/httpd 1.7 1 cpsrvd 1.7 1 cpdavd 1.6 1 /usr/sbin/restorecond I know I can't disable apache but what about the others? Spam Assasin is disabled in the WHM but the process restarts even after I kill it. Is Python necessary? I am using php apps..

Mid-level (1GB RAM) VPS With Strong Support
My university runs a website to help students find rentals in the general area. We recently ran into some billing issues with our current VPS host, and we're trying to move to a new VPS. I have some experience finding cheap VPSs (I use Slicehost for a 256MB RAM VPS), but this one has different requirements. Our current VPS provides us with 1GB of RAM, and we don't want to go below this. Also, the VPS we use gives great tech support to my boss (who only knows the very basics about technology). We'd also strongly prefer a VPS that comes with Cpanel. Does anyone have any recommendations for other VPSs that meet these requirements?

Is 512 Enough RAM For A Small LAMP Setup
I'm setting up a VPS server on Slicehost, I've followed the guide on howtoforge for debian and have everything installed including ISPConfig3. Everything seems to work fine at the mo but when I check the memory usage, i see that I'm using around 490/500mb of my 512mb setup. Its a Xen setup so I understand this is real memory available but I'm not sure if this is enough. I will ultimately be running around a dozen sites, some static and some dynamic. There's one Mambo and one Joomla site there but they don't update. The rest are all php/mysql sites that I've built myself but again, they don't change that much. None of the sites currently see more than a couple hundred uniques a day, and some only a handful, so usage is not high. Most of the domains have e-mail accounts attached, but its only moderate usage with around a dozen addys per domain max. So, do I need more memory or will 512 be enough? Is there anything I can do to reduce the load and give myself some more room? I'm moving from a shared hosting environment and while I'm comfortable setting up the server, I would rather have a simple mail manager that would give users more control over their accounts, change passwords etc, which I'm hoping ISPConfig3 will be able to help with, but thats probably best discussed in another post.

Difference Between RAM And Burstable RAM?
What is the difference between RAM and burstable RAM? What even is RAM! I ask because I upgraded my server (again) today. I went from 256 RAM, to 512, now to 1024 of RAM. Is 1 gig of RAM good? Also, I want to know in general if I am getting a good deal here I have a VPS now with these specs: Dedicated RAM: 1024 MB Burstable RAM: 4096 MB RAID 10 Disk Space: 100 GB FREE Backup Space: 100 GB Premium Bandwidth: 4000 GB Dedicated IP Address: 2 Monthly Price: $119.99 does that seem like a good deal to you? I ask because I am new to all of this, and don't know if I am getting jipped. Should a site on this server run fast, if it is a high traffic "tube" site?

What Kind Of Website Can 1GB Ram Handle
I'm not quite sure how much of Ram I need for my vps, But I'm going to get 1GB Vps from wiredtree.com Anyone can tell me what kind of website I would be able to run on such an VPS? If it's just wordpress driven website... Maybe anyone can share how much traffic your site have and how much ram it's using? At the moment I have website with about 40k uniques/day and ~100k pageloads per day hosted on shared hosting but they have gave me 3days to find another hosting because they say I use to much of their traffic...

RAM Guaranteed/burstable, Discspace
I currently have the SilverVS package from RoseHosting: [url] With this specification, I also have DirectAdmin running and my website is www.christianforumsite.com (A forum) So far, It's really good but there are some hourly lag times and two very very short downtimes in a few months time span. RH told me that my site had a high memory usage and that I might have to upgrade it. So my questions are: 1. Could forums take a lot of memory and force the OS to kill some processes. In my case the forum is active but it not like huge community. Traffic report on alexa: [url] It appears on top if you search for christian forum or christian forums, so the bots might be doing some damage too. Also I am using DirectAdmin with the lowest plan. 2. Could upgrading to the next VPS plan make the site noticeably faster and eliminate the lag times I've been experiencing? 3. What specifically (RAM guaranteed/burstable, discspace) should be high in case of a growing forum. Any other recommendation?

"Burstable" RAM In VPSs
Most VPS offerings have "burstable" memory allocations. I get how you can do this with most things -- letting a VPS access more CPU cycles can be done pretty easily, and a 10 Mbps line burstable to 100 Mbps makes sense. But how does the guest OS handle all of a sudden having more memory? Since a lot of VPS guests run without modification, how does this work? Does the typical Linux system support dynamic changes in RAM? I can only imagine that dealing with "un-bursting" is even more complex: suppose I have 128MB, burst to 512, but then the host node tries to reclaim some of it. Is the system smart enough to seamlessly swap out to disk when RAM "disappears?" I'd fully expect a kernel panic when the system's RAM shrinks in size, particularly when the RAM was in use. I'm curious about exactly how all of this is managed. Given that 95% of VPS hosts give a burstable range of RAM, what exactly manages this? Is the virtualization platform handling this and somehow "tricking" the kernel, or is the guest system able to deal with changing RAM allocations? And, if the latter, is this a standard feature of the Linux kernel, or are guest OS mods still necessary to deal with burstable RAM?

CPanel/WHM Managed VPS With At Least 512MB Burstable
I'm currently in the market for a new VPS that will be used for a single website. The client had it on a shared server, and ended up having it get suspended from too many httpd connections one day. Though the 2+ months it's been up, there haven't been any prior issues, so I think there was just something on that day that people found the website. Anyway, according to WHM's bandwidth log, it hasn't used more then 46GB in a month, so I don't foresee this account needing to surpass 100GB of bandwidth. The amount if disk space being used it currently at 1GB but up to 3-5GB would suffice. I've tried out Direct Admin, but I'm much more knowledgable with WHM and cPanel that if at all possible, I'd want that on it. I'd prefer not to have to pay extra monthly for a license; I'd like for it to be included in the price. I'm not looking for full management, but just basic management (and having support that actually reads your tickets as opposed to repeating the same bs every other ticket.. speaking from personal experience with another *cough* VPS host.) I'm looking for the price range to be under $30 a month for the specs needed. I realize cPanel needs a bit more memory, so.. hopefully this is justifiable: Requirements: OS - CentOS CP - cPanel+WHM RAM - 128-256MB dedicated, burstable to 512MB+ (though not a necessity) DISK - 3-5GB of disk space (obviously more would be fine if it's available within PR) Bandwidth - 100GB Price Range - $30 or less I've already tried out Primary VPS, so I don't want to go there. Spry's VPS is unmanaged, and I don't want to configure the VPS myself at all (I'm lazy and I really suck at SSH commands.) If any of you guys can offer some ideas of VPS hosts to look into, that would fit the prereqs I listed, I would be forever in your debt (or not) but I'd really appreciate it. I just don't want to deal with Primary VPS anymore, and have been stumped as to what other VPS hosts to look into. Obviously I'm still going to search around here, but sometimes I like hearing personal recommendations...

Shared Hosting RAM Vs Virtual Private Server (VPS) RAM
I have a reseller shared hosting plan that allows for 50 sub-accounts and I'm using about 20. I am looking at getting a VPS with between 256 - 394 mb RAM and am wondering if I were to move all of my accounts to the new VPS would I be ending up with less RAM to use for all of my sites. To put this another way how do most reseller plans manage RAM usage? Do each of my sub-accounts have access to say 64 mb RAM so that if I were to use all 50 sub accounts I would have access to 50*64 mb. From what I've experienced and read with shared hosting my thought is I could end up with less access to server resources, CPU and RAM, with a VPS plan - though with VPS the resources are more guaranteed rather than being dependent on the usage of other accounts on the server. The reason I am looking at a VPS account is that I have a site that will likely have 1000s of users with a server intensive script (Moodle) and I know it would violate the reseller account agreement. So maybe my plan should be to keep the reseller account and use it for my database driven sites and use the VPS for the server intensive site and my html based sites. Also, my VPS choice seems to be narrowed down to Liquidweb, JaguarPC and Zone - has anybody heard of any negative experiences with Liquidweb? I can't find any.

Shared Host <$5/mo - 10+ Addons, 1gb+ Bandwidth
I tried to put as much as possible into the title I've had asmallorange for like 6 years now, was great host but lately uptime seemed to suffer a bit. Searching for some new one to try. Could You recommend a cheap less than $5/mo shared hosting? What I need: highest uptime available, 99.8 or above would be great use more than 10 websites with them, addon domains feature. bandwidth above 1 gig, maybe above 5, not sure. support doesn't matter that much, cause I almost never ned to contact them, lol another thing I'd prefer is to use company's details in WHOIS info - that's really kind of important. Don't like Godaddy's $10 service. Just don't want to pay.

Burstable Billing
I'm really confused about burstable billing. I'm hoping you guys can help me out. I'm currently with Softlayer and I have two dedicated servers with 2TB of bandwidth a month. So far this has been fine for me. I'm getting ready to move to a third server and therefore I'm looking at colo space. The problem is that they all seem to charge by the Mbps instead of by the overall bandwidth you use. The bandwidth here in Austin is expensive (About $200+ per Mbps) and I have no idea how much I'd need. Here's a sample of the last 7 days of traffic on one of my servers Any idea how much bandwidth I'd need? Also, are these colos just screwing with me? Should I be able to find a plan that charges me by overall bandwidth instead of using bustable billing?

Burstable Lines
if a provider provides me a 1Mbps AIMS dedicated line for my dedicated server, is it possible for him to make it burstable to 1.5Mbps? i thought when i get a dedicated line i would be able to get max 1Mbps only? How is it possible that it can be burstable? Does that mean its not dedicated, instead shared?

OpenVZ Burstable Memory
Let say your VPS has 128MB of memory. My understanding would be that if you had, say, another 128MB of 'burstable' memory, that if another guest on the system wasn't using all it's memory, or if there was some spare on the system, then your VPS could use that. But, how much memory does your VPS really think it has available? and what happens if the other VPS (or the system) decides it wants it memory back? Does OpenVZ just start killing off your processes until it free's up enough memory?

VPS: What's Using All My RAM
I'm running a vB forum (runemart.com), and my VPS has the following specs: ~666MHz CPU 512MB RAM CentOS 5.3 64-bit DirectAdmin In my VPS control panel, it's saying that I'm using around 350MB to 450MB RAM - this is 24/7, it never goes below 350MB. At the moment all I'm running is a vB forum, that doesn't have many memory consuming plugins (such as no shoutbox at the moment). Is it normal for a vB forum to use so much RAM? Is there any way that I can find out what's using the RAM?

VPS And Ram
for either VPS or dedicated hosting for a few websites (a mix of Wordpress, Joomla and custom Ruby on Rails). Traffic is likely to be low to medium. I'm confused about memory on VPS. Most of the ones I've seen start at 128MB going up to about 512MB (at prices approaching those of dedicated servers). Now, to me, that all sounds woefully low for a server. If I was getting a dedicated server I'd be looking at a gig at least. Is there something I'm missing? I've seen reference to guaranteed versus burstable memory. I presume burstable means my server can take up to that amount for a short time but only if it happens to be available on the host - no guarantee. Given that traffic to my sites is likely to be bursty should I be paying more attention to the guaranteed or the burstable level of memory? I'll be running Linux, Apache, MySQL BTW.

Ram On A Vps
I'm currently hosting a bunch of small sites on a VPS with serverforce.net with 64mb ram. I'm no longer living in england, and I'm thinking about moving to a provider closer to my new home (Toronto). I've had a look around and I'm thinking about going with future hosting. I'm looking at their unmanaged no control panel vps which would be similar to what I have now. I'm deciding between 2 packages, the silver package with 128mb ram for $14.95/month and the pearl package with 256mb plus an extra 128mb (they have an offer on) for $19.95 a month. My fiance says the extra $5 is a waste because I don't need that much ram, and I think for an extra $5 I might as well have it, everyone always says the more ram the better. (He thinks I should host on his home server with his bog standard DSL connection) I'm planning to run ubuntu 7.04, lighttpd, php5, sqlite (same as I have at the moment). My sites are mostly text, very few images, no video or anything. At the moment I have low traffic, but I'm starting to build web apps which will hopefully bring more traffic and will use more databasey stuff.

VPS And RAM
I want to host around 20 sites. The sites will not be very intensive. They are going to be either static or dynamic (CMS) but not too intensive. My requirement is that the sites are very fast, the loading of the pages to be very quick. I am thinking of a VPS instead of a reseller acount, because I think that with a VPS I will control the account better and will have guaranteed resources so that the sites are fast and not affected by other heavy users/sites. I will manage the VPS with a control panel like cPanel. Now, because it is my first time with a VPS I have some questions: 1) For the above requirements (loading speed), and for hosting around 20-25 sites, how much RAM (guaranteed) you think that I should have. As I told, I have no experience, so I don't know how much RAM is required. Will 512 MB RAM will be enough for very fast loading sites? MAybe more than this? Please make your proposal! 2)Another question is: I have not experience with a VPS; will a control panel will be enough to control all aspects of the sites, and have the sites up and running? Or a control panel will not cover me (and I will need to know more of management)? 3) IS a VPS as difficult as a dedicated server to manage or more easy? 4) Can you tell me what are the steps on a VPS, in order to have my sites up and running? (e.g. first I need to setup DNS? secondly what? create a new site or a new customer/domain? what about the services like email, ftp, mysql? are these automatically set up by the control panel or I have to do this manually myself?) 5) I need a very high uptime! at least 99.9% and if possible more than this, like 99,95 or 99,99%. I don't care about the cost. (up to $150/month) Can you propose me a VPS provider that is famous about quality of service (speedy servers, exellent uptime, and great support 24/7)? Also I want this provider to have excellent and fast 24/7 support, and if possible to provide best-effort support for 3rd party software and helo with installation.

Burstable To A 100mbits Full Duplex
I wonder what does this mean. I no what a 100mbit connectivity is but what does it mean by burstable. Does it mean that the downloading will start off really fast and then go down to my normal internet connection. What i mean is that if i download say from the microsoft.com, It will start at about 400kb/sec and then slowely progress to 260kb/sec. With my server with in a datacenter, it starts from about 100kb/sec and then makes it way up to 260kb/sec. I am moving datacenter. So what does it mean by burstable.

Cpanel VPS - Plenty Of Free Memory, But 'committed' Memory Exceeds VPS RAM
I have a VPS. And have had an issue both when it was 1Gig and now I recently downgraded it to 768m, because I am moving some sites to a dedicated. However, the part I am having trouble grasping is that when I look at graphs from Munin, it will typically always show 200-400MB free memory (and free -m and top agrees with munin), but Munin shows 'committed' memory that is above the total Ram on the VPS and once the 'committed' ram exceeds the VPS limit, processes start failing. So, why is 'committed' memory exceeding the RAM on my VPS, when Munin, free -m and top all show there is free memory available? Code: root@server [~]# free -m total used free shared buffers cached Mem: 768 449 318 0 0 0 -/+ buffers/cache: 449 318 Swap: 0 0 0 Here's a graph that munin produces that shows the 'committed' memory exceeding the total memory.

Is A VPS With 128mb RAM Enough For...?
I'm looking at a VPS with 128mb dedicated and 256mb burstable RAM. What I need to have on it is MYSQL, HTTPD (HTTP + HTTPS), Mail and FTP. My site has not much traffic, not more than 3000 visitors per month and it's an online shop so not CPU intensive. Do you think that would work on a VPS with the mentioned specs? Anything special I should think about if/when I install the apps on the server? Any good light FTP server or/and mail server you can recomend? I need HTTPD as webserver since I've worked with it before.

RAM Usage On VPS
I m currently hosted on a shared host and this is the stat for on eof my site: Hours CPU Time Execution time CPU Usage Average Memory Processes 0-6 20.46 s 98.86 s 0.24% 2.52 MB 105 6-12 246.99 s 1927.26 s 2.86% 2.46 MB 1328 12-18 373.3 s 3660.48 s 4.32% 2.52 MB 1867 18-24 250.57 s 2800.82 s 2.90% 2.52 MB 1259 So it shows my site uses avg 2.52 MB RAM. This is in shared hostinng plan. Now suppose I am going for a VPS server with 256 MB RAM, does that mean I will get whole 256 MB RAM for my Site usage or the OS and other application will also consume that amount of RAM. What I understand that when you go for VPS, the allocated processor and RAM capacity to yur plan will be used by the OS, the cpanel or any other scripts and the Database. So basically they together will consume nearly 256 MB RAM.

Windows VPS With Extra RAM
I'm looking for a VPS running Windows Server (preferably 2008, but 2003 is also OK) with 4GB of RAM. Disk space, provided it's at least 50GB, and bandwidth, provided it's at least 100GB/month, aren't really that important. I've been scouring WHT and Google for something that will meet my needs but have not yet been successful. Does anyone know where I can find such a VPS? Or is there nothing out there and should I concentrate on fully dedicated products?

Checking VPS RAM - OpenVZ
I am looking at a VPS of one friend, using OpenVZ. It has 256MB RAM, but it always goes down, and the host asks my friend to upgrade to larger RAM. I have read that if UBC setting is too low, the VPS could not use all allocated RAM, not sure if it's correctly or not, but is there anyway to check? This is some info ...

[Review] RAM Host VPS
This review is based off of my personal experience with RAM Host VPS [url][ over the past 2 weeks. 100MB Test: [url] My UnixBench results (which I'm told is on a fully loaded server): [url] Bottom Line: Great value VPS provider whose owner has a background in UNIX and security. Detailed Review: I'm new to this forum (brought here by the hacking incident of my previous provider since I couldn't actually get any useful information out of them directly), but I have experience in hosting and security and over the past 15 years I've held paying posititions as as UNIX sysadmin, Network engineer, and Security engineer. I've also run my own co-located Linux servers before (even Debian on a SUN pizza box) as well as most recently utilizing shared hosting faclities to run the majority of my web sites. I run Linux (Debian and Ubuntu) as well as MAC OS X at home. My first experience with VPS hosting was with a VPS provider that had almost a week of downtime due to a hacking incident. I also had another incident with this same provider where I believed the host system was compromised but support totally wrote the incident off, so needless to say, I wasn't off to the best start in the world of VPS's. I knew that I was tired of my shared provider having over-loaded servers, thus resulting in horrible laod times for my Gallery 2 installations, but I wasn't sure about trusting my previous provider since they appeared to have little to no security experience. My search for a good VPS provider has ended with RAM Host. I found them by seeing them referenced in the "Speed Test" section as well as a "Benchmarking" thread. Their benchmarks and speed proved to be above and beyond what I was getting from my other provider, not to mention I did some research on the company and owner and determined that he was much like me: From: [url] Quote: I also have a business - RAM Host.us - it is shared and virtual dedicated server hosting with professional features run by professionals for professionals. I founded it because I was sick of web hosts who treat their customers like idiots. Because we cater to the smart person, it has the effect of allowing us to charge much less than others - the untapped market of smart people who don't want / need / can afford a full blown dedicated server or expensive VPS and all the administrative overhead that it entails. We cater to the programmers (including the python ones) and webmasters - raw fully-featured web hosting with specifications that can be customized based on your actual needs so you don't pay for stuff you don't want. Not to mention Robert appears to have security experience and has had paying jobs in the security field. Based on this information, and being in the security field myself, I was convinced that I should at least give the little guy, RAM Host, a shot. I initially inquired with support about my needs and almost immediately received a response. My initial concerns were with regards to continuity of business if something were to happen to the owner since the company appeared to be a small business. Robert assured me that there was another person involved with day-to-day operations that would at least provide me with 1 months notice if something were to happen. This is more than enough time for me to move my sites elsewhere. My VPS was setup within about 15 minutes of my order being placed. The web console wasn't anything special, but it wasn't HyperVM (which made me happy). It does allow you the abilty to see your IP, bandwidth used, power on/power off/reboot your VPS, and the ability to reload it with the UNIX distribution of your choice. By the end of the day I had already restaged my VPS, moved my sites over (transferred 10GB of data in about 15 minutes!) and they were being served from RAM host. The speed and benchmarks quoted were exactly as advertised. I've had the service for 2 weeks and haven't had any issues with bandwidth or response times to my sites. Ping times are good, and overall connectivity seem to be on par with my previous provider. You may have concerns about going with a small company to do your hosting, but sometimes the personal service and support you get from a small company outweighs the limitations. Nothing demonstrated this more than not being told what was happening with my previous provider when they were hacked. Pros: - Price - 11.99/mo for 40GB Storage, 500GB Transfer, 512/1024MB RAM VPS - Fast install, fast servers, fast network connection - Servers are not overloaded or oversold: Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU E7200 @ 2.53GHz with between 4-6GB RAM serves typically 9 VPS customers per server, absolute maximum of 11 per server) - Fast and Knowledgable support; they surely don't treat customers like they are idiots! - Customized plans so you get exactly what you need. - Includes weekly backups with customer allowed downloads and support can perform restores if you haven't downloaded the latest backup. - Not running HyperVM! - IRC client access is allowed for VPS's (not IRCD) - Status page updates with upcoming planned outages, etc - Reported an issue with network speeds when developer was testing backups, and they responded with an answer within 5 minutes and had resolved the issue. Cons: - Disks are not running RAID however hardware is new and backups are performed - No emails were received when an outage occurred however it was on the status page - Backups are weekly and bandwidth to perform restores are currently limited; however this is currently a work in progress as features are currently in the works for the backup process and should soon provide faster restores (restore data available from the same datacenter). Either way, no matter what your provider provides you for backups, you should make your own (as obvious by many that lost all of their data when FSCKVPS/VAserv was hacked). - No RDNS.

Is 256MG Ram Enough On Apache VPS
I just got a VPS server ~3 weeks ago. How much should a clean install of a VPS server with 256MB use up? STATS: - wordpress (not open for public) - phpbb (100 visitors a day) - Running on Apache - hosting 2 domains - htaccess file does not allow bandwidth consumption on non-trusted sites SCREENSHOTS [url] [url] My last VPS (also had 256MB) was working great and had no problems with Memory being used up. Which file should I look at (via ssh) so I can find out what exactly is happening?

I need a small VPS for testing and development. I have read many comments that cpanel on a 256mb VPS is pretty tight. However, I have not seen many comments about cpanel VPS optimise [url] Do any of you have experience about this ? Is is safe to run the cpanel VPS optimise on a 256mb VPS?

Two Drupal Sites On Vps - RAM
I'm developing two Drupal websites and now looking for a host. I have never used Drupal before, and all my hosting experiences are with shared hosting. Since I have read lately a lot about problems with performance of Drupal sites on various shared hosts, I decided to look for a VPS. Managed, since I don't have skills to manage it by myself. From what I read I have concluded that for one low-mid traffic Drupal site with few modules active, I'll need 200-250MB RAM. How much will I need for two websites on same VPS? Double? Should I use one Drupal installation for both sites? Does that mean I don't need double amount of RAM?

VPS With Large RAM, Or Dedicated
I have a website which has about 20K users, and now I am using VPS plan at LunarPages. However, I have encountered a trouble of out-of-memory. Although I have configured my Apache and MySQL carefully, the 512M memory is not enough. Therefore, the users' expirence is not good these days because my site is very unstable. I contacted Lunarpages, asking them whether I can upgrade my VPS to bigger RAM, but they said the ONLY way to get a RAM bigger than 512M is to upgrade to dedicated hosting plan. The following are some stats of my website: Total Members: 20k Online at the same time: max 600, average 300 The Lunarpages VPS plan: www[dot]lunarpages[dot]com/virtual-private-server/ disk space: 20G RAM: 512M price: $42 / mo Now I am not sure whether to migrate to didicated hosting plan, because currently, the main problem is just the size of RAM. Other resources e.g (CPU, network etc. ) are not my bottleneck. So I think it seems not worthwhile for me to migrate to the dedicated hosting plan with a doubled price (even more, almost 3x if I need 1G RAM), just for a larger size of RAM. Can you guys give some suggestions to choose a VPS provider for my site? The factors taken into my consideration include: * RAM size: at least (1G for peak, 768M garantee). The bigger, the better. Nice if can choose larger size when needed. * price * bandwidth: 1T/mon? * easy to upgrade to dedicated host: just in case that one day I will have to use dedicated. * whether there are coupons for a lower price.

VPS With A Large Amount Of RAM
I've been with zone.net for a couple months now, and I have a guaranteed 512MB of memory, which I seem to constantly be hitting, which seems to result in processes being killed and http access vanishing. Growing quite annoying. I'm looking into moving onto a new provider that can provide more guaranteed RAM for about the same price. Space isn't a huge deal, I'd do fine with a meager 5GB. Bandwidth I need at least 200GB, but wouldn't mind more. I'd like to stay managed if possible, as I'm not as well versed in server workings as I should be. Also am in need of cPanel, which I know is a spendy sucker. My budget is something around $70 a month, and I don't really want to go much higher than that. Still a poor college boy :/ Can anyone suggest such a provider? I've browsed around a lot of the VPS hosts but can't seem to find one that has as much RAM as I need for a decent price. All the ones that seem to have 512MB+ are pretty expensive, and offer a lot more other stuff (space/bandwidth) than I need. As a final note, the line speed isn't that big of a deal. I'm currently on a 3mbit and am surviving, but going back to a higher speed line would be great

Xen VPS W/192mb+ Of RAM
My current VPS is quite overloaded. The culprit is that I'm running Spamassassin (i.e. MemoryLeakAssassin), ClamAV (i.e. VirusSignatureDatabaseMemoryLeakAV), and MySQL (which actually isn't bad for memory compared to MemoryLeakAssassin, but still isn't lightweight). Despite restarting Spamassassin and ClamAV every hour in my crontab to free up the memory they're leaking, all the spammers hammering my server are still driving up memory usage during the course of that hour to the point where the VPS is thrashing. Here is basically what my current usage needs are based on current usage patterns in my current VPS: 192MB RAM 6GB disk 30GB/mo xfer (note: those are *minimum* requirements. Reality is that the next plan above the above is what I would probably want, to give a little room for growth). For technology: Xen + ssh console (I've needed the ssh console a couple of times when Debian stopped at the "need to clean disks" prompt due to a server crash, Virtuozzo is too limited and UML too slow in my experience). Debian 4.0 Linux (now that 4.0 is out, getting backports for Sarge for SA and ClamAV is not easy). Reverse DNS (PTR) because this is my mail server and most ISP mail servers reject mail from mail servers that don't have a proper PTR record resolving to the same host name as the HELO. For pricing: Under $50. My current host works fairly well, but a) doesn't have Debian 4.0, and b) doesn't have a reasonably priced plan like the above. VPS providers I've looked at so far: Slicehost: Appears to have run into a cash crunch, basically isn't offering new accounts. Server Axis: No SSH console. Quantact: No Debian 4.0. $$$ for a plan with enough memory. Unixshell: Not offering new accounts VPSfarm: Unclear if they offer PTR/Reverse DNS RimuHosting: Digging around on their web site, they do offer reverse DNS/PTR. Unclear if they have console access to your VPS. $$$. Linode: Uses UML (i.e. not preferred technology due to slower performance). Otherwise is perfect insofar as memory, Debian 4.0, ssh console, reverse DNS, etc. Vpsland: Does have console access to your VPS. Reverse DNS/PTR is manual (email support, they set it up). Reputation for poor service, confirmed by myself (pre-sales email sent by me to them asking about console access to VPS unanswered after a month, I later dug up the info in their knowledgebase hidden in their Xen control panel article). VPSVillage: Unknown ssh console status. Unknown PTR/reverse DNS. Bizarre/uninformative web site. (The uninformative part being the big issue). Anybody have info to add to the above, either reverse DNS or ssh console status on the ones I don't have info for, or other Xen VPS provider info? At the moment I just don't see any satisfactory providers for my needs, providers either are poor quality, incomplete, not accepting new customers, uninformative on their web site about what they're selling, using old/slow technology (Linode), or just don't move very fast. Am I missing something? Or does the current state of non-Virtuozzo Linux VPS hosting really suck as bad as it seems?
