    Minecraft is single-threaded, you need a single powerful core, else it will run pretty poorly. Don't even think about Scaleway, those Intel Atoms have terrible single-thread performance.

    I would recommend a shared hosting instead, BisectHosting has a 512MB package for ~17.5€/year. They also had a 50% off recurring promotion, but it expired two weeks ago.

    Or he could use a cheaper, aswell as better shared host and get 1GB ram for $14.40 a year @ https://aquatis.host/
    (There's supposed to be a 1$ per GB coupon but I think it just expired 2 days ago)

    - I still have a Time4VPS XS VPS renewing at 14€ish per year (might try that one first)

    • Aruba with 1 GB RAM and 14K CPU Benchmark + SSD at 12€/year looks promising (even with ping of 71ms).

    • Will consider @MikeA but don't think it's gonna be too much a difference compared to Time4VPS XS

    15/year for 1GB? even for game servers, nooo. lots of game hosts don't oversell like some might think, even with swap, I avoid it to not worry about the memory crashes.

    512mb RAM are more than enough for many gameservers tbh. I hosted our Counter Strike Global Offensive gameserver on 512mb for a while without issues. And Teeworlds Server on a 512mb as well :P For just friends 5-10 Players you can host many gameservers with 512mb, even more with 1GB Ram :)

    You said 1GB+ in your thread though :P

    I did :P But you said "even for game servers no" implying 512mb/1gb wouldn't be enough for gameservers in general^^ Not sure if understood correctly though so feel free to correct me hehe

    Guess it's gonna be aruba then :P
    Friend found some "lifetime" mcserver deal with German Zap Hosting @Falzo but dunno if it's worth it tbh (100€ one time). They have been in Business for a long time already and 23k fb fans so not gonna die soon. It's just that I could probably prepay a decent better performing vps for about 5 years with that budget (20€/y).

    Word around town is electricity and bandwidth always cost money. Parts and stuff too.

    Word around town is that lifetime business models have about a 100% of failing in the near future.

    Lifetime plans are a gamble, sure. It's about evaluating how long the product/host will stay around until it the deal is shut down. While ZAP isn't known to be the best in the market they still have been around long enough to say, that judging by my experience following the German Gameserver market, they may just continue to be around long enough to make up for the deal.

    Would be OpenVZ and Voxility instead of Combahton Interesting for you?

    (1,5GB RAM)

    It might be :P Depending on how much overselling you guys do and if where the future of Ovz is gonna be at. Because if not new OS are gonna be made available I will at some point be stuck with EOL OSes^^

    Minecraft is not your average gameserver. It's one of the most resource hungry pieces of shit you will ever witness. It's been designed by a guy with a extremly successful idea but little technical talent and even like 10 years and millions of dolars in profit later it hasn't recovered from that. Seriously a lot of it's faults are covered by basic game programming FAQs designed for complete newbies but they never got fixed.

    It's bad, but not that bad. I've run MC servers off of 512MB of ram before (and I still am actually). People edit thousands of blocks at a time on my servers without any difficulties (well, to be fair, you do need to install a Bukkit plugin like FAWE to prevent WorldEdit from crashing on edits of that scale).

    We are speaking about a minecraft server just for friends, bare vanilla mc with no plugins 3-6 players. Will 512mb in this case be sufficient?

    512MB should be okay. Depends heavily on the type of game - if the players are in the same or different chunks. View-distance in server.properties is also very important.

    CPU and storage performance is far more important in this case.

    Well it's Time4VPS XS vps so yeah that's what is to be expected :P Atleast it has the old 400 mbits dedicated port speed

  • Interesting highlight regarding Aquatis.host:

    They changed it now to fraudulent chargeback will result in termination & possible legal action.

    From my experience, it should definitely be enough.
