raouldlvkk
thanks
[00:23]
mercutiofreebsd has broken virtio drivers?
or just non-default?
[00:27]

raouldlvhttp://wiki.freebsd.org/FreeBSD/Xen
er, We use KVM/QEMU, providing full hardware virtualization, not containers or jails.
from arp site
so freebsd xen paravirt optimizations wouldnt work
[01:03]
***DaCa has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 272 seconds) [01:06]
..... (idle for 20mn)
up_the_ironsraouldlv: right, don't use xen paravirt optimizations, we don't use xen [01:26]
..... (idle for 23mn)
mercutiokvm virtual drivers may work though [01:49]

heavysixer has quit IRC (Remote host closed the connection) [04:17]
arenlorHonestly, how much optimization are you hoping to pick up that way? My VPS has always run great with nothing special done to it. [04:23]

mercutioarenlor: my disk i/o under openbsd is slow
16mb/sec
[04:49]
arenlormercutio: How are you measuring it? [04:50]
mercutio# time dd if=/dev/zero bs=1024k of=testzero count=100
100+0 records in
100+0 records out
104857600 bytes transferred in 6.509 secs (16108084 bytes/sec)
dd if=/dev/zero bs=1024k of=testzero count=100 0.00s user 2.99s system 45% cpu 6.523 total
it still goes ok
it's not laggy slow disk i/o
just not high bw
it's also high cpu

mercutiowtf
you're way slower
[04:52]

Those are my two VPS.
[04:52]
mercutiowow huge diff [04:53]

mercutioyou should have conv=fdatasync
but openbsd doesn't support it
[04:53]
arenlorThat is my tower set next to me.
mercutio: They're all debian 6.0
So slow disk speed could just be that you're on a busy box.
[04:53]
mercutio# time dd if=/dev/zero bs=1024k of=testzero count=100 conv=fdatasync
100+0 records in

[04:54]
arenlorAlthough, up_the_irons: WTF with 3.5 MB/s? [04:54]
mercutiothat's an ubuntu vm somewhere else
you may not have virtio enabled?
[04:54]
arenlormercutio: I didn't customize anything.
Both the 3.5 MB/s and 216 MB/s are configured the same.
[04:55]
mercutioweird
maybe virtio on host not enabled on one
[04:55]
arenlorI think it's just a heavy box.
Which makes me that much more worried about its uptime.
arenlor has a backup of everything though
[04:56]
mercutiothere may be a bad disk? [04:58]
arenlormercutio: He said he ran a check on it the other day and it was running okay.
So there may not be any need to optimize, it could just be that you have someone (or more than one) not being super friendly with disk I/O

xcat has joined #arpnetworks [16:22]
xcathi there, been looking around the portal but didn't find any clear direcitons on how to reload my VM if I'd like to do that? is there simple button I Can click to perform that action? [16:24]
jpalmerxcat: as in, reinstall from the cd or something? [16:32]
xcatyeah, or just an os reload [16:32]
up_the_ironsxcat: email support@arpnetworks.com with your vps uuid and that you would like your vps reset to "factory defaults" [16:33]
xcatok, thank you [16:33]
up_the_ironsnp [16:33]
jpalmerxcat: http://support.arpnetworks.com/kb/vps/re-install-or-change-os may help. if you want to reinstall with the same OS that you ordered it with, the cd is already loaded. if you want a newer version, or different OS.. you have to ask support to change media

[16:33]
xcatI figured out my issue though, I didn't know I had the ability VNC into the console
screwed up my root password when typing last night, couldn't get in this morning
thanks for your prompt response, so far so good with the service :)
[16:33]
jpalmerxcat: you'll love ARP. the people in this channel are mostly longtime customers. we wouldn't be here if ARP didn't rock. [16:34]
***Ehtyar has joined #arpnetworks [16:34]
xcatthanks :) Yeah I looked around for a while but I read really good reviews about ARP

not a whole lot of bsd cloud providers out there
at least legit ones, it seems
[16:35]
jdoenot a lot of decent vps providers at all :P [16:37]
