Looking for cheap tunnel broker that doesn't hate NATed endpoints · Networking

RackNerd runs circles around x86? On a tunnel?

Ampere Altra. 80W TDP vs 200W+ Xeon. Less heat, more throughput per watt. My tunnel benches at 1.2 Gbps sustained. X86 VPS in same price bracket chokes at 600 Mbps after 10 min thermal throttle.

Is it like a VPN?

Contabo and RackNerd both support NAT traversal! Contabo uses UDP encapsulation, insane value at €3/month. RackNerd has Ampere-based endpoints, runs circles around x86 for tunnel throughput.

MTU 1280 default, adjust if DSL.

Ryzen 5 3600 vs E5-2680v2 for Plex—real numbers inside · Dedicated Servers

In Poland we have TOU pricing. Night kWh is 0.08 EUR, day is 0.18 EUR.

I run my e5-2680v2 transcodes at 2 AM. The power cost argument is irrelevant if you schedule.

Ryzen 3600 costs more to buy, more to replace when DDR4 dies. Xeon DDR3 is disposable.
