128MB ram lor. Still can. My GreenCloudVPS vps from 2019 still running. What u all running ah

I run unbound. 10K query daily. Cache hit ratio 87%. Memory usage 34MB resident. Debian 11 stripped. No docker lah, docker already 80MB before anything

Challenge to you all: one service only. What u pick

¡the challenge beautiful! I have the server red, 128MB, in the rack old. I run the bind9, the resolver recursive. For that money you get much queries, 10K daily also. The memory is tight but ¡it works!

The secret: the swap in the disk SSD, the cache minimal, the zone the root only. You configure vos mismo, no panel heavy.

hot air, steady hand, magic smoke

Worth noting.

128MB single service candidates:

  • Unbound: 30-50MB, your winner
  • Nsd: 20MB but authoritative only
  • Knot resolver: 60MB, too heavy
  • Dnsmasq: 15MB, no DNSSEC by default

My actual Leaseweb box: 128MB, OpenBSD, nsd + unbound split. Cheating? Maybe. Production since 2022.

zfs send | zfs receive. repeat.

Unbound at 30MB is the real cheat

GreenCloudVPS still selling that plan in 2024? Which location

#6

Bind9 recursive in 128MB? I want to see that config

#7

Same thing happened to me on same split on OpenBSD, unbound + nsd on 96MB.
