  So for instance if I signed up for the 1 core $60 a year option with this it's essentially $10 for the year ?

  Do you also provide Cpanel? if yes then for how much?

  Also what is cost of adding another IP address to VPS?

  Is there a console view in customer portal to restart VPS if we get locked out?

    Hi nichanir,

    We do offer cPanel licensing. You can view our prices from "Available Addons" on the order form (E:G: Quibit1 - https://quantumcore.com.au/clients/cart.php?a=confproduct&i=…)

    Additional IPv4 addresses are $5 per month and we can add as many IPv6 addresses as you need for free.

    Yes, there are controls from the client area including a console.

    Let me know if there are any other questions :)

    Hi DealHunter,

    An invoice for the difference would be generated on a pro-rata basis.

  From the AUP: "b) Run any software that interfaces with an IRC (Internet Relay Chat) network."

  Honestly disappointing. I was considering using this for my private ZNC instance.

  There's some more bizarre stuff in there too:
  l) is otherwise malicious, fraudulent, or may result in retaliation against Quantum Core by offended viewers;

  Mmm yes, enable those outrage mobs.

  Quantum Core does not accept material such as:
  b) Content 'published or transmitted' via Quantum Core's service includes Web content, e-mail, bulletin board postings, chat, and any other type of posting or transmission that relies on any Internet service provided by Quantum Core.

  Wat

  d) You otherwise comply with the CAN SPAM Act and other applicable law.

  CAN SPAM act is US, right? Isn't this service is regulated by the Spam Act?

  e) Forging of any TCP-IP packet header or any part of the header information in an e-mail or a newsgroup posting; or

  Yeah God forbid you get a time traveller forging messages to the 5 people still using newsgroups.

  Honestly this seems like it has been copy-pasted from somewhere. I get this sense of familiarity when reading it and the template must be pretty old.

    Thanks for the feedback. We have had a lot of feedback in regards to our AUP. It's on our list to review and essentially rewrite.

    A lot of that is on there as a lot of people have found our cheap prices attractable for their malicious activity which in return affects other customers.

    Your use for a private ZNC instance is perfectly acceptable and allowed.

      Hi, thanks for the reply.

      I went ahead and ordered one as "why not".

      Here's some rudimentary benchmarks with similarly spec'd hosts:
      

      	Quantum Core	MightWeb	Local ESXi	EC2 t3.small	Linode	RansomIT VM (low ram, 1G)
      ZNC Compile	5m14.973s	8m35.667s	4m48.836s	5m0.949s	5m29.778s	9m35.697s (swapped hard)
      fio rand read IOPS	61026.6	30930	65024.88	2254	44024.4	32369
      fio rand write IOPS	20399.3	10332	21730.67	753	14715.1	10813
      fio seq read MB/s	913	1080.2	265	78.5	1432	525.2
      fio seq write MB/s	609	738.2	177	52.7	955	350.5
      Speedtest DL Mbps	939.01	940.24	173.8	564.39	4558.44	920.33
      Speedtest UP Mbps	922.19	946.86	72.2	2040.06	4009.15	911.8
      Speedtest Latency	12.56	15.86	10.71	1.11	0.64	1.2
      Speedtest Jitter	0.06	0.05	0.24	0.09	1.09	0.05
      Price	$20 (assuming AUD)	$12.95 USD	$938 Power Bill	$19.33 USD + EBS	$20 USD	$10 AUD

      That ZNC compile time is impressive, I'm curious what CPU you're using. Local ESXi is a dual E5-2643 v3 so the result on that wasn't surprising but I am surprised you got so close to t3.small considering that is a Xeon scalable CPU and has banked CPU credits so it was bursting.

      Good job on IOPS and throughput. The Speedtest was done with the new Speedtest.net client and not the Python one so should be pretty accurate.

      The fio command I used for IOPS was: fio --randrepeat=1 --ioengine=libaio --direct=1 --gtod_reduce=1 --name=test --filename=test --bs=4k --iodepth=64 --size=4G --readwrite=randrw --rwmixread=75

      For sequential tests I lightly modified the seq-RW file from the fio examples:
      [global]
name=fio-seq-RW
filename=fio-seq-RW
rw=rw
rwmixread=60
rwmixwrite=40
bs=256K
direct=1
numjobs=1
time_based=1
runtime=300

      [file1]
size=8G
ioengine=libaio
iodepth=16

      ZNC was configured with: --enable-python --enable-perl --enable-tcl

        Glad you're enjoying the service!

        If you open a ticket we can enable host-passthrough which will enable you to see the CPU info for your node.

  I’ve got 12 vps’s since May from these guys and had 100% uptime. I highly recommend them.
