I'll try adding some swap and see if it helps for GB6
With 4GB of swap, speed is pretty awful, but can't complain for a 10EUR/yr machine lol
Two times bigger plan for 2× the price:
24 €/year for EU residents (VAT), 20.16 €/year VAT exempt (2 and 1.68 euro per month correspondingly).
Max 5 per customer.

There’s also 4x size machine with 4x the price as well
CPU is weak. im not sure 20 euros is worth it
I bench YABS 24/7/365 unless it's a leap year.
Tbh I think their upside is network and performance. For that price having sth like 30TB/mo with decent peering and actual ability to spike up to 1Gbps on a shared node, plus decent uptime and support I think it’s pretty great

Destroys it with performance:money, have been using it for a year now, 0 complaints.
Only downside compared to netcup is 100Mbps port.
Wish I too could have grabbed one
Good deal. 1EUR a month from reputable provider w/ ipv4 and ssd is a win in my books
It's restocked regularly, you just need to keep an eye on it

Hmmm... Meh. Except for the 30GB SSD, it is still behind Ionos' (!) cheap VPS (1C/1G/10G/fair-use, peak 10Gbps, GB6 score 596/448, 1€/mth).
Link?
ionos.at then search for vps linux servers, size xs
i'm happy with their 10 EUR deal so far. amazing network to tap on hostbrr DA storage with only 3ms, even better than AlphaVPS nuremberg and xTom frankfurt.
I bench YABS 24/7/365 unless it's a leap year.
What's your experience with Ionos? I've read some not so good things online.
No problem at all over the last 5 years.
The only drawback is their billing monthly rather than yearly - so 12x e-mail with invoice, instead of 1
