d4c4 is now known as DaCa nathani: http://www.enom.com/blog/a-new-chapter-for-enom/ mkb: what happens if you exceed the bandwidth limits on a vps? brycec[m]: You're billed extra mkb: the amount listed under more bandwidth on the pricing page I suppose...? brycec[m]: I'd assume so.
Just remember that bw is billed on the 95th percentile, meaning the top 5% is not counted towards your monthly usage in order to smooth out brief spikes. nathani: I thought ARP charged for bandwidth by the gig for overages mercutio: brycec[m]: most people aren't billed on 95th
most people don't understand 95th brycec[m]: mercutio: I was going off http://irclogger.arpnetworks.com/irclogger_log/arpnetworks?date=2017-01-03,Tue&sel=59#l55
I took that, in addition to the presence of the "95th percentile" on my bandwidth graphs, to mean that's how ARP bills.
Also confirmed in 2011 http://irclogger.arpnetworks.com/irclogger_log/arpnetworks?date=2011-05-10,Tue&sel=65#l61 mercutio: 95th is for heavy bandwidth users brycec[m]: And a direct answer for mkb : http://support.arpnetworks.com/kb/billing/what-happens-if-i-go-over-my-bandwidth-quota mercutio: http://irclogger.arpnetworks.com/irclogger_log/arpnetworks?date=2011-05-10,Tue&sel=88#l84 brycec[m]: (That message doesn't really tell me how it's typically handled, one way or another) mercutio: well it does show a preference for per-gb charged than 95th
http://support.arpnetworks.com/kb/billing/how-much-is-bandwidth-over-my-quota mhoran: I wish my mobile phone charged $0.15 per gb... mercutio: this is clearer

haha mhoran brycec[m]: I /did/ link that one already ;) mercutio: oh real
oh it was when i was looking at the think you linked :)
thing even brycec: 10:38 <brycec[m]> And a direct answer for mkb : http://support.arpnetworks.com/kb/billing/what-happens-if-i-go-over-my-bandwidth-quota
yeah
(I guess I'm not clear on "what" 95th percentile billing is - I didn't think it was exclusive from per-gb billing. *shrug*) mercutio: yeah it's either/or normally
95th is kind of annoying for smlal amounts of bandwidth
because it means if you do something like a backup every day from home or such then the bandwidth used could depend on your home internet connection's speed
it's ok for continous low badnwidth, but regular medium bandwidth is more unpredictable
for something like straight web hosting it isn't so bad though ***: raptelan has joined #arpnetworks raptelan: http://www.ondatechnology.org/wiki/index.php?title=Booting_the_Linux_Kernel_without_a_bootloader <-- would be interesting to set up mercutio: linux used to have a built in boot loeader to boot off floppy
oh, efistub. yeah i've been meaning to try that ***: acf_ has quit IRC (Quit: leaving)
