Need a VPS, current one is rubbish

Hi everyone,

I am currently using a free VPS with amazon (free for first 12 months). It has always been slow but I have put up with it.

Recently, it has got so bad it is unusable. Spent half a day yesterday trying to save the settings of two EAs and email them to myself so I can compare them. I can’t afford to waste time like that.

Any one got recomendations for a good FAST vps. I’m happy to pay. Or maybe an alternative way of running my EAs. I guess I could buy a cheap desktop and have it running all the time.

Also, maybe people with more computer knowledge than me can suggest why my server might be so slow. Everyone says amazon VPSs are good. I have got a lot of metatrader installations on there. It’s so slow it would probably take me a day to try and delete some off though. I have to sit and wait for five minutes after every click.

Hello Shona,

I was having similar speed problems on my VPS (Cybercon). If you check these out this may help some:

I bumped my VPS up to about 6 GIGs of RAM from an original 2 GIGs. That significantly improved it. My VPS runs about $100 per month.

Hope this helps.

Try these guys, Interserver - VPS: Budget Windows, Linux, and cPanel Cloud VPS Hosting They have allot of options. I don’t use them as I use the VPS of my broker GFT UK which is often advertised on BabyPips
