Re: Chicago vs Atlanta - VDS vs Dedicated

I'd recommend starting with a VDS and upgrading if you start seeing performance problems due to single threads saturating a core. You sound like you know what you're doing and will be able to monitor for those. Internap is in the process of upgrading its Atlanta location and we expect to see it sta...

Re: Chicago vs Atlanta - VDS vs Dedicated

Chicago would definitely be a good choice. Due to it's increased capacity we can generally work around most issues, such as an Internap problem or an upstream problem since we have so much capacity available there. I'd also recommend sticking with a VDS, unless you can utilize the extra CPU. Overal...

Chicago vs Atlanta - VDS vs Dedicated

Hey, just wanted to say to start that I'm overall very happy with my experience at NFO (well over a year now) but this summer will be making some fairly large changes to how and what I'm hosting and was looking to get a bit of feedback from those a bit more experienced than me. Currently I have 3 di...

Re: Multiple VPS' vs Single Dedicated

The largest benefit of a dedi over a VDS is single threaded performance. If each of your server instances don't use a full thread, sticking with VDS will be the best option. I assumed that'd be the case but just wanted to get second opinions so I wasn't screwing myself out of even better hosting op...

Multiple VPS' vs Single Dedicated

So I feel this question is a bit silly of me but I'm just trying to look at my further expansion and see at what point dedicated servers may be the way to go in my situation. Currently I have 3 VPS servers (hosted in chicago, atlanta and germany) with NFO and am very, very happy with them. Over the ...

Re: Improve writing performance (MySql)

Full disclosure that I've never done any hosting with Terraria but in almost every case where you're running into issues with MySql it's going to be caused with how the server itself is handling the queries. If you sync data to your database every single time it's modified then you're going to quick...
