Good day
Have you guys done any performance tuning for running FreeBSD.x on kvm?
We're doing some testing to see which hypervisor to use for our next line of products at work
I'm pretty much in love with kvm now ***: ziyourenxiang has joined #arpnetworks

lll has joined #arpnetworks jeev: what do you mean, arp's website is the best web 2.0 site in history bob^^: web 0.2 :) jeev: ;D bob^^: to be fair, the arp site does just what it needs to do :)
i like sites like that mike-burns: Yeah, I love it. jeev: no lag bob^^: yup mike-burns: It targets exactly the right audience. bob^^: exactly
people who need all the web 2.0 stuff probably don't want a vps ;) mike-burns: They want more hand-holding.
Which is fine, and is what I want from a hosting company during my day job. ***: schmir has joined #arpnetworks bob^^: yup :) up_the_irons: LOL, arp's site looks shadier than prgmr?? prffffffffffffff..
;)
i mean, I _did_ design the site specifically to be "to the point" and zero fluff. I've attracted an audience that is exactly what I wanted
targeted towards experts who already know what they want
but come on, prgmr doesn't even use any color... mike-burns: Yeah, it works perfectly. up_the_irons: and last i checked, they didn't even take credit cards bob^^: how do they get money i wonder
paypal? up_the_irons: yeah paypal toddf: paypal can take credit cards.. up_the_irons: right, but their order form wants you to put in your paypal email, as if you're paying with paypal, not a CC; maybe i mis-understood that.. toddf: oh, well if the order form doesn't permit paypal cc's and only insists on paypal email addresses, then thats all they want
I send my company invoices out with a link to paypal to process either based on a paypal account or cc's, I don't care which bob^^: paypal fees are the killer toddf: its less than a merchant account given my volume by quite a bit
merchant accounts cost $50/mo or so then you pay a percent on top of that
I have people use the paypal payment route 1-2 times a year if that
http://todd.fries.net/pub/434.pdf <-- sample invoice
$50/mo adds up to a lot quickly when you don't use it much, that's 5 vm's at arpnetworks, I can put that $50/mo to a lot better use *grin* up_the_irons: yeah, merchant accounts suck toddf: may not be $50/mo but its not cheap ***: schmir has quit IRC (Remote host closed the connection) jeev: toddf, did you generate that invoice in openbsdows 7
? toddf: openbsd 4.7 yes ***: vtoms has quit IRC (Quit: Leaving.)

he's been known to take the cover off cpu's so he could get better contact to the heatsink, voiding his warranty.. to get 2 degrees better cooling ballen: heh jeev: yea, tried it on his. his 275 worked fine.. played for a while, was so jealous ballen: XP or Win 7? jeev: 7
