512MB is the new budget floor. Used to be 256MB, 128MB before that. Filtering layer: price inflation, not technical limits. ARM broke this downward. 2Gbps scrubbing at Vultr runs on 256MB nodes. Anycast control plane: 128MB. RAM isn't the bottleneck for mitigation.
512MB the new 1GB: inflation hits VPS too
mitigated 800Gbps before breakfast

Network okay.
96MB plan. 2017. Time4VPS. Still billing. Perkele.
# yabs.sh on Hostinger 512MB KVM
fio test:
read: 82.4 MB/s
write: 41.2 MB/s
iperf3:
send: 380 Mbits/sec
recv: 210 Mbits/secDecent disk IO, meh network. 512MB performs like 2019 1GB tier. Comparison:
- 2019 1GB: ~80MB/s disk, 400Mbit net
- 2024 512MB: ~80MB/s disk, 300Mbit net
Same price though. Numbers don't lie.
fio, iperf, geekbench. results or gtfo.
Hos very very cheap before ạ now 512MB is new small very sad ạ I remember 96MB hos from quartz very nice price no more ạ
Lol yeah I remember the 96MB days those were something else I had one on InterServer I think or was it RackNerd anyway 512MB now is basically minimum for anything serious I tried running cpanel on 512MB once never again the oom killer was my best friend that month
1. 96MB plan very much
2. ARM hos very cheap now
3. I use 256MB ARM from Leaseweb very much
4. No problem with little memory
5. Price go down not up very much
ARM is secret very much
