First let me say. Thanks for all the years of offering great service and support. Im glad to see you are still kicking it.
I have an off the wall question for you. This is specific to your linux VDS servers.
So i'm running a few servers. I noticed something about running Ubuntu and Debian. Seems that Debian 10 provides the best performance and gameplay experience. But the in-game ping is slightly higher compared to running Ubuntu. This is on the same server, so its not hardware related. Ubuntu gives me a ping of 8-16ms and Debian gives me 16-24ms.
Im just curious if you know why that is. The Debian 10 instance gives the best experience, but Ubuntu gives the best ping. I would have thought the opposite considering Ubuntu has many more preinstalled processes compared to Debian.
Regards.

Re: Ping Question - Debian vs Ubuntu
I haven't looked at the default kernel configurations, but it is possible that the Ubuntu kernel has a variable Hz and the Debian one doesn't, or something along those lines. Certainly odd, though, as both OSes are very similar (Ubuntu is based on Debian).
