CloudatCost speeds
-
Anyone else experience terrible speeds with them? This downloads been running for about 2 hours now with an estimated 5 hours left (down from 19 hours woot)
Do they throttle or is this just more of a "eh dont worry about it it'll be fine later"
(This is downloading from Dropbox)
-
yeah it's not meant for heavy data usage.

Sitting on a 100Mb network and a 4GB file is heavy use? lol
-
Have not tested speeds, but it feels rather slow.
-
Yeah even updates can take a while. I'm sure they limit it with a firewall.

Ya I second this hours took me 6+hours yesterday

You should test instance to instance speeds as well.

I'm thinking it would only work if it was in the same subnet and be full speed.

No matter that I try doing or even the size of the file, (simply moving a 120mb file like deadlocked the computer.
Installed dropbox and linked it to only one folder, allows the server to function normally and runs at about 1.5Mb/s
EDIT: Up to about 4.2Mb/s far cry from the kb's I was getting earlier.

Use sar and see if you are getting IOWait issues.

I've seen rather slow download speeds before. Comparable to this.

I'm doing some smallish downloads from CloudatCost to my laptop in Spain and I am getting faster speeds than this. Not super fast, but it is a large number of small files. So each one slows down. I am hitting around 3Mb/s and I am guessing that the bottleneck is here in Spain, not in the Canadian datacenter. I'm on a WiMax that caps at 8Mb/s, am doing some big uploads while this is going on and doing several other tasks.

One of my downloads was over 4Mb/s.
