HostLease  Reviewing my VPS 16 by Hostlease

Post4VPS VPS 16 by Hostlease - Review
by @"Hidden Refuge"


Hello Post4VPS Community & Guests

During the last giveaway of 2019, in December, I applied for the VPS 16 and won the VPS during the giveaway process. In about three to four days a whole month of ownership and usage will be reached for me with the VPS 16. Unfortunately in about exactly the same amount of time my vacation will end and after that I won't have much time to do a lot on it due to my real life job. So I decided to write a "after a month of usage" review to share my experience with the VPS so far before I have no time or totally forget about it.

I should note that this is my very first Post4VPS VPS since I joined back in Q3 of 2015. I have not owned a VPS here before and neither did I review any VPS or other services here before. This also will be the first review for the VPS 16 as it is actually a brand new VPS that was in the giveaway process for the first time so far (CMIIW).

Let's get started.


VPS Specifications

First I would like to list the VPS specifications here again so you don't have to look it up somewhere or have to guess it. It will be easier to have all information on a single page when reading a review to quickly look things up if necessary. I'll also confirm the specifications by reading the information directly from the VPS using a bash benchmarking script.

Specifications
CPU: Intel Xeon E5-2620 v2 @ 2.10 GHz
CPU Cores: 4
RAM: 12 GB
Disk Space: 200 GB (SSD)
Bandwidth: 5 TB / month
Connection: 1 Gbit/s
IP Adress(es): 1x IPv4 Address
Location: Lelystad (close to Amsterdam) in the Netherlands
Virtualization: KVM (Hardware virtualization)
Control Panel: None provided (support via the support forums)

I can confirm this VPS specifications via my bench.sh 2.0 benchmarking script. The information is available below.

System Info
Processor       : Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2620 v2 @ 2.10GHz
CPU Cores       : 4 @ 2095 MHz
Memory          : 12010 MB
Swap            : 0 MB
Uptime          : 25 days, 20:45,

OS              : Debian GNU/Linux 10 (buster)
Arch            : x86_64 (64 Bit)
Kernel          : 4.19.0-6-amd64
Hostname        : <hostname redacted>

As you can see the specifications check out with the information provided by Hostlease on the VPS plans page. Disk space also checks out (see information listed below).

VPS Usage

Before getting into checking and benchmarking the performance of the VPS I would like to mention how and for what I will be using the VPS. Due to the high specifications of the VPS the giveaway process is not so simple as you might guess. It is necessary to list usage and reason why you should get the VPS instead of everyone else. Basically not only the your score matters but also "how you sell yourself" while applying to win the VPS.

I'm using Debian "Buster" 10 as my OS on the VPS and the main usage of the VPS is a Docker environment to containerize all other applications I want to host such as:
  • Private NextCloud instance for myself and a few friends (Docker).
  • Web server for all of my domains and a few websites I would like to run (Docker).
  • Development, testing and improvement of new and existing scripts.
  • Self-hosted pastebin service with CLI upload support like termbin (Docker).
  • Using the VPS resources to write tutorials for this forum and help users with issues or requests.
  • Maybe a private game server for different games to play on with friends if I find time and people to play with (Docker).
  • A private VPN server for myself as my NordVPN subscription will run out in four months and I won't be extending it (Docker).
  • Additionally I would most likely use left over resources to testing new stuff.

Below are a few resources and guides that I've already written and tested on my VPS 16 as a part of my usage plans:
As you can see I didn't manage to do that much so far. Finding free time is simply the main issue. I worked through half of December. And then I had vacation which was mixed with a lot of holidays due to Christmas and New Year. I have the base setup already with Debian 10 and Docker + Portainer installed. I also actually already run a Nginx Docker instance with automated LetsEncrypt DNS wildcard renewal through the CloudFlare API (a guide for this will follow). Additionally I used the VPS already to test my bash VPS benchmarking script and develop new features in the dev branch.

That's it about my usage plans for the VPS and how I will continue with the VPS in the future.


VPS Performance Benchmarks

Now I would like to review the actual performance of the VPS and provide data that will backup my claims and statements. I'll start with the CPU performance, followed by the disk (SSD) performance and finally the network speed.


CPU Performance

The CPU (Intel Xeon E5-2620 v2) used in the physical server is a bit dated for todays standards as it was released in Q3 of 2013. That's around 7 years ago by now. So you cannot expect top notch and up to mark performance. So far I can tell that I couldn't feel any big slowdown when doing my normal tasks. The actual really long taking and slow task was one of the benchmarks. However the benchmark represents the age and performance loss VS newer CPUs well enough to justify the long time it needed to run. Despite having 4 cores you have to always remember that you're not alone on the KVM hypervisor and that there are always other customers also making use of their resources. So in my opinion the performance is fair enough for the age of the CPU and so far I had no issues doing what I needed to do.

Data to show the CPU performance is supplied by a Geekbench 5 and a Byte Unixbench benchmark available below.

Geekbench
Single Core: 292 points
Multi Core: 742 points
Results: https://browser.geekbench.com/v5/cpu/921306

A little side node: I do experience steal of up to 2% per core when checking the core load with advanced details using htop. The CPU steal is probably caused by noise of the other VPS containers. However 2% steal are absolutely ok and not a problem so far.

The benchmarks do confirm my experience so far. The results for single core applications are low but fair. The multi core experience is much better and I can feel it when using applications that actually support multiple cores and use them. That might contribute lot to why I haven't had many bad or really slow experiences so far. Overall the E5 series of Xeon CPUs is exactly meant for this purpose: multi core tasks that don't require too much performance per core. I can however imagine that the CPU will most likely make the game server experience rather difficult as most game servers such as Minecraft or CSGO are performing a lot better and high clocking single cores and don't properly or fully utilize multiple cores. Time will tell.


SSD Performance

Unfortunately I have no clue which SSDs, how many SSDs and in which RAID setup the provider Hostlease is using in that server. I cannot really even make any assumptions or similar because we have zero information on that. So instead I will report about my experience and provide several different benchmark results as crunching data.

As said before I don't know anything about the SSD setup on the physical server. The disk speed here seems to be fair and enough to work with. The disk latency is also ok although there seem to be little spikes in usage causing slowdown. Overall I didn't feel or see any issues, yet. So all in all I would say it is absolutely ok at the moment although you can generally expect more of SSDs (but again the setup is unknown and we don't even know how many other containers there are and what they're doing). Cannot really complain at that point.


Network Performance

I tested the network performance using wget to download big files from several different servers around the world. I tested IPv4 and IPv6. Yes, despite the VPS plan only saying that the VPS has one IPv4 address I actually noticed that mine also had a public IPv6 address already assigned. In additional I also performed a speedtest.net CLI speed test and did some iperf3 speed tests.

Concluding from all the test aboves the Downstream (Download) speed seems to be maxing out at around 200 to 250 Mbit/s max which is about 1/4 of the advertised 1 Gbit/s speed. I'm fine with that to be honest but I wonder if there is some kind of throttle in place? The Upstream (Upload) however seems to be maxing out at around 400 to 500 Mbit/s max which is about 2/4 of the advertised 1 Gbit/s speed. Sounds fine to me, too. Although it is a bit weird to see the upload speed being 2x higher than the download speed. Normally if in any case it is otherwise. However usually data center Internet connections are symmetric and so both speeds should be around the same with little to no difference.

However I'm a little disappointed that the IPv6 network performance is rather low. IPv6 is the future and should be adopted as fast as possible. A slow network over IPv6 might however make it not so great in terms of usage. For now I'm fine with this as IPv6 is not so widespread and the biggest amount of traffic is still made over IPv4. Maybe Hostlease doesn't advertise IPv6 for this very reason?

For my purposes the available network speed, especially around the area of Europe, is actually more than enough.

Summary & Finale

After all the data gathering and crunching it is time to finalize the review. I will now provide a summary of my experience so far based on the benchmarks and my usage of the VPS so far. And I will add a final opinion about the VPS at the end of this review.

1. The VPS performance is absolutely enough or my VPS usage plans so far. Although there is always more space for better performance. There is probably not much you can do without actually replacing the whole physical server with much newer hardware to improve the performance. So its alright Smile .

2. The disk performance seems fair enough but a little slow for a SSD setup. Please note again that we don't know the disk setup on the physical server and the load caused by other containers is also unknown. For my purpose it is enough.

3. The network is not really as advertised but I don't really know why. I'm not going to bother Post4VPS staff or Hostlease with this though. I'm fine with the network how it is. However maybe if Hostlease sees this review they can look into a few things?

In my opinion this VPS is a perfect fit if you require a lot of RAM, disk space and several CPU cores. Despite the dated hardware specifications you still get absolutely fair performance. The VPS is absolutely usable for many projects and much more. I would like to thank Post4VPS and Hostlease for the great VPS.

Thank you for reading my review. If you have any questions, suggestions or feedback feel free to post them below.

Any VoIP project?.. This is one of those projects that I've had for a long time on my to do list. Although I did develop a WebRTC WebApp module 4/5 years a go, the Internet connectivity at that time was so bad that I had to halt developing it further. Now with my 4G-LTE connectivity, I'll be resuscitating that project and with a dedicated SIP server things may start getting interesting.

Anyway, good review... Hostlease team should take a look at it. Clearly, there are issues with the disk setup and the connectivity outside your region (I can't even say outside Europe.)

@chanalku91 and @LightDestory thank you both for your comments.

@fChk no, I'm not really into VoIP. I used to host VoIP servers in the past when I was in college for friends and their gaming business (clans and etc.). Nowadays I don't touch that subject because I have no interest and no need.

I hope to hear from Hostlease. Would be happy to know what they think about the review at least.

I am the one who has the real knowledge of the delivered VPSs, as previously reported you avoided that speed is low for an SSD but it has also been reported that the 1Gbit / s is shared and therefore not Dedicated. If the IP was a dedicated one, you could easily have achieved 950MB / s, but we can see if we can assign a Dedicated IP that can save you a full 1GBit / s, but that is still looking at this for now a year how we are going to save things. So that 1Gbit / s is shared with other VPS on this node. So with shared you can never use it full.

Regards.

Thank you for responding to the review and the concerns regarding the network connection.

I am more than fully aware that the connection on the physical server is a shared 1 Gbit/s connection. So of course every container / costumer is using the same connection at the same time. I did say I'm absolutely fine with the network though. So a dedicated 1 Gbit/s connection just for me is absolutely not necessary.

I'm fine here.

Excellent review. In fact it is by far the best VPS review I have ever seen in this Post4VPS forum in the past 4+ years. Smile

The VPS itself is great, except for the IPv6 network performance of course. Disk speed is also unexpectedly slow for a SSD. But a total 200 GB disk space is indeed very generous. Now it seems only 2% of the disk space is consumed though.

great review for the BEST VPS in this forum . when i first joined this forum at Q2 2017 the highest spec VPS is VPS 9 and it is still with openvz virtualization and after 2 month at the forum i get my first vps which is VPS 9 and now im on my third vps with VPS 5 . the highest speced was beaten by VPS 4 with 10GB of ram and KVM and beaten again with VPS 16

12GB of ram is a lot and with that 4 core it is great for high traffic website and game server . the disk speed is a little bit slow for SSD . if im not wrong my previous VPS 9 have slightly better disk speed . the network is okay

but unfortunately it doesnt have control panel so switching power and doing reinstall isnt great . but for the 12GB of ram is it probably worth it

Great and extremely descriptive review! I admire the time and effort you put into it! Reviews like these are the ones I absolutely love to read!

What specially caught my attention are the 4 cpu cores! That’s absolutely insane for a free vps!!! I personally rely a lot on my VPS 9’s CPU, it seems to be doing just fine. However, I would’ve really appreciated getting more CPU cores. So the fact that you’ve got double the CPU cores of VPS 9 is very neat!

I do have to say that the clock speed is slightly lower than that of VPS 9, but the 4 CPU cores make up for it!
Thank you Post4VPS and VirMach for providing me with VPS9! But now it’s time to say farewell due to my studies.
