      That's just painful, but have to expect that to happen now and then. Guess I'll start an overnight ping test, see how bad it still is.

      Edit: Never mind, don't have the IP address for the Linode.

              Nope Mongolassi doesn't exist!

                    Wow - this sounds nearly the same as the GRC DDOS attack, only on a HUGE scale.

                              @aaronstuder that would be the Atom processor. Per thread performance is low. You get a lot of memory with that but not much CPU. Great for a lab. Much slower thread performance on physical than the VMs we are testing.

                                Linode is 5001.3 bogomips x 2 = 10,002.6

                                Scaleway is 4787.8 bogomips x 8 = 38,302.4

                                The C2750 is 85% more energy efficient than the Intel Xeon E5-2680 CPU.

                                In a data center with thousands of servers, that adds up quickly 🙂

                                    You are comparing two cores to a full eight on a dedicated CPU. That the Linode is greater than 1/4 the bogomips when virtualized shows the difference.

                                    And while yes, energy efficiency is important, so is largest scalable size and thread performance. Atoms are decent for certain workloads, but you need more of them to do it. But workloads for which Atoms are good, ARMs are better. So Atom often falls into a weird middle ground of "mostly only well suited for something that they are not ideal for."

                                      Decent looking product, but no RAID on their entry level. Really meant for DevOps only.

                                          Not according to their price list. Only more expensive options begin to offer RAID.

                                            They are super pricey too... $300 a month, almost. Granted, that's their Type 1 system... I get half the CPU & RAM, but almost 10 x the storage for $25 a month through KimSufi.
