Don't worry about Geekbench. It's ok without it. Thank you.
@ps20090 You need create swap. Than Geekbench will run ok.
You could ask them to enable AES-NI
I strongly think...this is toooo old CPU.
just running
rsync
from another vps and runningtop
showsrsync, sshd
commands using 90+% cpuPlot twist: storage running on Pentium 1 processor.
To help people install custom isos:
As noted earlier in this thread CTRL B at the ipxe prompt:
dhcp
doesn't work @hostsolutionsipxe
prompt so you need to set astatic
ip:set net0/netmask 255.255.252.0
set net0/gateway 5.6.7.8
set dns 9.9.9.9
ifopen net0
chain --autofree http://boot.netboot.xyz
We are agree with such practice but i want to advert some "windows" users/aplication , this package was not created to have huge cpu consumition/usage so to prevent suspend ora any discution better to know before use it.
@cociu - they make great Alpine Linux boxes ;o)
I dunno what Cociu did with network, but I can playback ISOs via Plex (sort of Virtual Mount Drive to playback ISOs remotely, doesn't take a lot of CPU when Direct Play) at 1080p without transcoding and it plays smoothly, without stutters or anything.
Thanks for the mention however
was certainly not the case for my nvme kvm in Romania. For me, dhcp worked just fine. Interesting that it appers to be different across nodes.. Weird
@Pilzbaum the
dhcp
issue was on akvm
that was recently created (converted after OpenVZ was phased out).Overall it's been fine.
I now have iPXE set as a boot option for a Rescue ISO
probably you are lucky!
for me just
rsync
is enough for cpu to reach 100%Are you running rsync inside cociu VPS? Or running it from other VPS?
running
rsync
from other vpsi.e. copying from other vps to cociu's vps.
I see.. you could try to reduce the transfer to 2 files at a time, by default rsync transfer 4 files at a time..
I found it strange that AES-NI is disabled since the E5-2450L does support it. I went digging around a bit and found this page which explains how you can force AES-NI usage. I had to set the env variable to
OPENSSL_ia32cap=0x200000000000400
instead though (notice the lack of a+
character). The kernel module also works.Benchmark before forcing AES-NI:
Benchmark after forcing AES-NI:
To compile the kernel module, make a directory
aes_ni_force
and add the following files (all based on these instructions):aes_ni_force.c
Makefile
Then run these commands:
As for the magic constant in
OPENSSL_ia32cap
: I've derived it by checking howCPUID works, reading the manpage and after finding a random StackOverflow
answer I came up with this:
gcc main.c -lcrypto -static
./a.out
Launch
python3
(or whatever really) and type this:a = 0x<value>
hex(a | (b << 32) | (1 << 57))
OPENSSL_ia32cap
Run
OPENSSL_ia32cap=<value> ./a.out
and make sure the output is thesame (aside from the
(1 << 57)
that got added). If it is not, thendon't use the value, otherwise your day may get ruined.
If you want to set the env variable for any systemd services execute
systemctl edit <service>
and add the following:
Also this CloudFlare Captcha bullshit does not work properly and is driving me nuts
What is the average download/upload speed?
This:
Hi cociu !
Thanks for this offer
Do you know when the last VPS will be deliver ?
Thanks
Thanks
we are focused with some norway problems but definetly will be today lather.
well, I'm waitin' in my bath
Hello !
My bath is cold
But good luck in Norway, we're patient
How many internet providers/internet route options do you have in Romania? Do you know how I can find which internet provider/internet route my VPS in Romania is using? This new 2TB VPS works so much better network wise to me in computer in US, like it feels much more stable and speed is quite consistent compared to my other old VPS from you.
Traceroute?
Doesn't seem to be many peering providers: https://bgp.he.net/AS44220
Hello Houston
Do you hear me?
Seems to have a problem this morning
No connection at all
Am I alone?
You're not alone, just lost my ssh connection.
No need to call Houston.
This is just a temporary network outage which comes for free with your service.
As soon as we are leaving the 'dark' side of the moon, connectivity should be established again.
Hope you feel better knowing you are not alone out there at all.
