I have currently 4 vps. One of them is a free one euserv that's almost unusable it's so slow. I should just have it deactivated so someone else can exploit the resources. I've used it for testing some things with ip6. My home isp doesn't have it; luckily I have a few boxes I can use to tunnel in
I have a racknerd promo I picked up that I use as my primary web server. 4g ram 4vcpu 45gb ssd. It works well and has really great networking in Californa, but the disk is a little slower than it should be with sdd, but overall I'm very pleased with it for the price.
I have a micro NAT vps from gullos.me I use for secondary backups. 256mb ram 1vcpu and 100gb hdd. The networking is great out of NY. It performs quite well for my needs. While the value is great and the service acceptable (I paid 8$ a year), I wouldn't recommend it for a production environment. The provider seems to run a pretty tight ship and there is an occasional short downtime (a couple hours) for updates, which is something I can appreciate and doesn't really hurt me as it's only holding secondary backups.
Third is a vps from greencloud I picked up a bargain price. It's a lesser known provider but I've been very pleased with it so far. It's my primary backup solution and I also use it as a sandbox before the production environment. 2gb ram 1vcpu and 500gb hdd. The disk iops are slightly better than my racknerd vps even though its hdd not ssd, and the networking is usually super fast as the server is relatively close to me in the south. My only warning is they sold me a dirty ip; hetrixtools sent up a flag when I ran it. It doesn't really impact me as I'm only using it for backups/testing, but if you were thinking about them in a production environment, you might want to ask if they have any clean ips first.
I cancelled my openvz box as it didn't really suit my needs. I need to check on the refund status.
