Anyone want a free VPS for a month, no catch, just dont need it :)

InceptionHosting

After writing this: https://lowendspirit.com/pq-hosting-moldova-netherlands-russia-latvia-ukraine-and-hong-kong-unmetered-bw

I am done with the server, so if anyone wants it, you still have until 07th Aug at which point it will die.

You will only get root login details nothing more, I am happy to reinstall it for you fresh with the OS of your choice.

Abuse it (torrents etc) and I will hurt you.

2vCPU, 30GB SSD, unmetered gbit link, Latvia.

Just let me know which OS you want and pick a number between 1 and 100, whoever is closest gets it, duplicate numbers will be invalid.

I will keep doing this as I burn through them.

Cheers.

Ant.

Anyone who grabs this, please share your experience after using it too.
It would be nice to get another opinion about this provider.

This is why I was looking for others to help benchmark stuff but it seemed everyone wanted to go the automated+synthetic route which is kind of pointless imho, if anyone wants to run some tests on it and give their perspective they will take priority as they will only need it for a few days.

@Neoon @sureiam @vyas @cybertech @Mason @sonic any interest?

If it's for idling, pong me

Mason

That's a negative for me, sir. Have more compute power than I have anything to do with at the moment. Thanks for the offer!

sorry im not of much help other than YABS and Monster bench, heh.

The most I could do is monitor fio manually

vyas

Thanks for the offer, I may have to give it a pass.
Just volunteered for an interesting project

Neoon

nevermind, nah.

That's right. I don't need it. I was kidding. Sorry if I caused confusion! The free VPS should go to somebody who needs it.

I don't have an use either (would just idle), so I'm gonna pass (although I wasn't offered, it doesn't really matter :P)

InceptionHosting

Well as @vimalware is the only one that actually wanted it seems pointless doing a draw.

Will Pm details.

vimalware

Oh gee. Thanks.
I'll probably compare naked iperf3 vs wireguard iperf3 performance to my favourite EU VPS first.
Curious to see what the old CPU on this can handle in terms of CHACHA stream cipher.

Edit: a fast enough KVM. There is still some iowait and steal

@Neoon @sureiam @vyas @cybertech @Mason @sonic any interest?

I'm definitely up for it. But I don't have much spare time for this and a bit of a write up till probably Aug. Then I have loads of free time for such activities. Really a bit late and pointless considering its till the 7th I know but it's a busy month for me and real work takes priority over fun.

Thanks for thinking of me though. Please do keep me in mind next time too
