vps resources

[techdaemon]

Hello.

I have a VPS hosted with knowinservers.com. They said I amusing too much of their server's resources and abusing it. Yesterday the load peaked at 167.

I have RL users under this VPS and all they do is transfer files and RAR/UNRAR and all the stuff you can do with Rapidleech.

This morning I disabled all of my RL users and tried to monitor the stats in my control panel. Here are the graphs:

I was only uploading using my main Rapidleech when this screenshot was taken.

Please help me interpret these graphs especially the "Load" one. And I just want to know what the safe load is and the number which I should not exceed.

Here is my stats in the last 12 hours:

If its your virtual server then it should not be using any more resources then what is exactly allocated.

May i ask what your ram specifications is ? Along with cpu information

My RAM is 768 MB, not burstable. CPU is Xeon 5640L 6 -Cores.

I have discovered that uploading causes too much load. I used Rapidleech to simultaneously upload 20 files to hotfile earlier and the server reached again a ridiculous 40 load!

Is this normal? When raring, unraring and using thumbnailer the load does not even touch 1. I am extremely perplexed right now.

so what could be the problem with my VPS? why do i get this very high loads when uploading with rapidleech?

if you are using apache, switch to lighttpd.

The load will be due to HDD IO. If you have multiple people using RL, raring and unraring, uploading and downloading, the HDD can't keep up.

Of course, on a VPS your HDDs are shared with others. If you're such a heavy user that the load on your VPS goes so high, it might be time to get a dedicated server.

I found out what causes the server load. It is uploading via Rapidleech or remote uploading to file hosts! I tested uploading 20 files simultaneously and then the load rocketed again. Is this really normal for a VPS? When unraring and raring or unzip and zipping the load does not get very high.
