Is This Fine?

I was messing around with my new VPS for the last week before I transfered my sites over. For the last week I was running a small game server off this VPS and on average I used up 50% CPU and 7% Memory according to the 'top' command in linux.

Does this mean I was using 50% of the total server power or just my share?

Is this type of CPU usage allowed under Jag's terms?

I didn't have support or anyone else contact me about this being against the TOS so I am hoping it is legal.

That is very interesting question. Please pm me your node name or vps name and I can look into it.

Sent. I am trying to fill up server right now so you will see the CPU usage. Thanks Masood.

How long will it take to fill the cpu usage?

so far it looks nice

Its up there now.

Look at this page:

Watch the players, when its around 20 it is average.

Currently with 20 players (out of 24 max) I am getting 37% usage and 1.6% memory.

At the node level your usage is about ~15% cpu, which is fine. No problem with memory either. Enjoy

You have absolutely no idea how awesome this is. You are going to give me double the servers I have now for the same price. I just need to convince somebody here to let me host at least a couple servers here in houston.

One last question. So is the CPU usage I am seeing in SSH the CPU usage of my share or of the entire server? Thanks Masood.

From what I see it is about half of the entire server (because of dual processor). BTW, your vps is in our Atlanta network.

So a single VE with a script in a loop can take 50% of the CPU of an entire VPS server?

Can a customer who is having resource issues request a restriction on his CPU allotment so that s/he doesn't have to move to dedicated?

Thats pretty interesting to hear, what game are you running on there?

Yes and more if they have more scripts.

No, because restricted CPU will make their vps unusable in this environment - it will come to a halt because of lack of CPU.

Counter Strike 1.6. You can give it a try before it is taken down tonight at;

I am talking with my partners now, I think we will slowly move our dedicated box which hosts 4 games and move over to VPS servers here which will allow us to host 8 for the same price.
