Virmach  VPS 9 (Atlanta) - My Dream VPS!

VPS 9 (Atlanta) - My Dream VPS!

Presented by @sohamb03 ; Directed by VirMach

Hello everyone!

This is none other than me to present a review on VPS 9 (Atlanta), belonging to the present mega-VPS group of Post4VPS, both in specifications and stock. 

THE STORY

I won this VPS on the 7th of September, 2019. I'd casually submitted a VPS request to be honest, I'd never really thought of winning this amazing VPS at the end of the Giveaway. When the Giveaway was on-going, little did I realize that this VPS, which has been an all-time favorite at Post4VPS would be mine. My spirits were really dampened when I came to know that a lot of candidates had applied, and only three of them remaining in stock with about 5 canditates already in the race, I'd assumed I wasn't going to succeed this time. 

Destiny was otherwise. On the 6th of September, 2019, @deanhills informed me (oh BTW I has initially applied for the Seattle location) that Seattle was the only location of VirMach VPSes that had a negative VPS review. He suggested that I could choose Atlanta, as Arsal has recently dropped it. I'm glad he made the suggestion that day, and today I take this opportunity to thank him a ton for the suggestion. Arsal is to be thanked too, for dropping this one, to my advantage. Wink

The very next day, came the best news. I did win the VPS and my happiness knew no bounds. Thanks to @Dynamo for organizing this forum, that brought us all together. I must say I've made great friends here, and this VPS - VPS 9, is one which I could've otherwise never afforded myself. This VPS played a great role in improving my skills in the Linux Administration, and it is through this VPS, that I learnt a lot of things. Smile

Agreed that this VPS did cause a lot of trouble during the OVZ to KVM migration, I've very little to complain about as these were very petty problems compared to the great benefit I derive out  of this VPS. (FUN FACT: I'd 6 OS re-installations on this VPS, basically I troubled Dean a lot. Tongue )

It's been 9 long months that I've been the holder of this VPS, and its time I justify the VPS and convey my regards and thanks to VirMach, through the medium of this review. Enjoy reading further!

STORAGE BENCHMARK

I've 70GB of storage on my VPS. In VPS 9, you can choose in multiples of 5, and I didn't need much storage till now, but I'll need more soon with another OS re-installation.  XD

Filesystem               Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
devtmpfs                 3.9G     0  3.9G   0% /dev
tmpfs                    3.9G   64M  3.8G   2% /dev/shm
tmpfs                    3.9G  384M  3.5G  10% /run
tmpfs                    3.9G     0  3.9G   0% /sys/fs/cgroup

/dev/loop0               1.5G  9.0M  1.4G   1% /tmp
/dev/mapper/centos-home   23G  1.1G   22G   5% /home
/dev/vda1               1014M  228M  787M  23% /boot
tmpfs                    783M  4.0K  783M   1% /run/user/0
tmpfs                    783M     0  783M   0% /run/user/5003

For the boot time: (Actually I've a GUI - XFCE - running on the VPS; not sure why it didn't show up Thinking )

Startup finished in 861ms (kernel) + 2.761s (initrd) + 12.130s (userspace) = 15.753s


Although, the boot time is pretty cool. 


Now for the tests, directly from the Benchmarking Script:

Disk Speed
----------
I/O (1st run)   : 799 MB/s
I/O (2nd run)   : 781 MB/s
I/O (3rd run)   : 827 MB/s
Average I/O     : 802.333 MB/s

Which is a remarkable performance!


This is the disk-speed-beta.sh script, not yet merged into the benchmarking script but just a confirmation of the above results plus the cached mode. 

Testing hard drive write speed.
Pass 1... Pass 2... Pass 3... 693 MB/s
Testing hard drive read speed with caching.
Pass 1... Pass 2... Pass 3... 2.5 GB/s
Testing hard drive read speed without caching.
Pass 1... Pass 2... Pass 3... 859 MB/s

(PS: Here I encountered a strange problem. I'm not an expert at all this; since I don't deal with hardware at all. For some reason, my system seems to be missing "/dev/sda" and I've the least idea why, so I performed the upcoming tests on "/dev/loop0". No idea if that makes a difference but nevermind. If I were to make a wild guess, I got CentOS 7 installed from ISO since I needed the default partitions for some purpose ... maybe that's why.)

Download speed may not be great, but good enough for my purpose.  Big Grin


USAGE

Here's the most important part - the use case of the VPS lol. 
  • I presently have CyberPanel running on he VPS - and two websites including my speedtest server being powered by the same. Also, I give free web hosting to one of my friend.
  • I've 6 Discord Bots running on that VPS (3 for me and 3 for yet another friend). All of them are coded in Python, and the server handles the load quite well. Not using much RAM and CPU honestly, except a few occasional spikes. 
  • A GUI - XFCE - is running on the VPS. It's the lightest GUI available (cuz I've previously faced problems with GNOME and MATE). 
  • Development and testing of my scripts. 
  • A private OpenVPN server for myself.
  • I'd installed Pterodactyl panel initially on the VPS; but on noticing that it consumes a lot of resources and conflicts with other applications on my VPS, I wiped it off. 
  • I always keep aside little resources (which is why the free space) for testing new stuff, panels and beta testing of other applications. 

SUMMARY

Let's sum up this review. 

1. I'm extremely satisfied with the VPS ... it's perfect for my needs and use-case. I do not regret keeping a considerable space empty cuz they get filled and wiped occasionally. 

2. As we all know, VPS 9 doesn't have a control panel, but honestly I never felt the need of having one. Dean and HR have been very active at support and my level of satisfaction knows no bounds. 

Again, a huge thanks to VirMach and Post4VPS, for this amazing VPS. Also, thanks for taking time to read this review, dear readers. Although I've tried to keep this review as descriptive as possible, any feedback, suggestions are welcome. I'll try my best to include them as soon as possible.

Regards,

Amazing and insanely detailed review you got there! Looks beautiful too with the way you formatted it! I enjoyed reading every little character on your review, so kudos for that!

Since we both have VPS 9, just different locations, the specs a vert identical! However performance wise, something just isn’t right on my end (more on that below).

It specially caught my attention that you mentioned that Deanhills informed you that the previous holder of VPS 9 Seattle had negative feedback on it (never knew that to be honest). That, if anyone here doesn’t already know, is the same VPS i had currently. And apart from a ton of miscommunication that went on almost every time i tried to ask the staff to do me something for it (not really the VPSs fault)... I haven’t had much negative to say about it except for ONE thing that I haven’t mentioned before (simply because I don’t want to trouble the admins more than I already have... so I learned to live with it):

And that one thing is that it tends to be quite slow in tasks such as establishing the SSH connection and logging in, along with running tasks as such updating dependencies and upgrading the packages. At first (for several months for a matter of fact) I thought that was normal... however, based on feedback i got from several VPS 9 holders, I’m the only one experiencing this. I couldn’t narrow the issue dowm however... network speeds are at a comfortable 800-900Mbps, and disk I/O speeds have been very inconsistent, but the max I’ve seen was around 500MBps, which is quite good (interesting to see that your VPS has almost double that... but I doubt that this could be the issue since ~500MBps I/O speeds is still blazing fast). But anyways, it’s not that huge of a deal as I’ve, just like I’ve mentioned previously, learned to live with it.
Thank you Post4VPS and VirMach for providing me with VPS9! But now it’s time to say farewell due to my studies.
