I tried it already out, but I had some wierd lags. After this I went to ndition and everything was fine. What can this be??

Willow wrote:Yes, I experienced the lag too earlier. I think it's caused by the cpu load balancing on the vps server (because there are more people on it who also need to use the cpu). In that case I'm afraid I won't be able to do much about it. If it persists, maybe I'll have to start looking for a dedicated server after 3 months (I'm still stuck with the vps server for 3 months ). I already found some interesting prospects, but they are more expensive. I would be able to provide much more slots on a dedicated server though. Cheapest one I found sofar is € 13,99 a month with unlimited bandwidth. Which is still pretty cheap, but it does require a hefty setup fee.
But I'll worry about that later. Maybe the lag spikes will be less at certain times. Maybe it just was too cheap to be reliable, but I still had to try. It's a nice setup though, I got debian on it. The unix tools are pretty handy for editing the files and checking the logs. Also I can remotely access the actual server console through ssh, which I think would be impossible to do on a windows system (well unless I use a vnc client or something, but that would probably require twice the ram).
