    @Nekki did you enabled igpu?

    It was enabled on delivery as far as I can tell.

    Does it show the igpu in the OS? As for jank, that's just how Ikoula works. Everything runs mostly alright once you get it set up, the setup process is just annoying. Quite a bit like OVH lol

    lspci | grep ' VGA ' 
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 4th Generation Core Processor Family Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 06)

intel_gpu_frequency
cur: 200 MHz
min: 200 MHz
RP1: 350 MHz
max: 1150 MHz

    I've never had any issues with OVH aside from crap upload and terrible support. The servers run fine and shockingly, actually reboot cleanly.

    I think my KS-LE has been down twice every day of this week. Some of the worst uptime I've seen, and I have services that are practically run out of someone's basement.

    Does it come with ipmi? Mabey check the bios settings to figure if there is something additionally needed (iommu?)

    I don’t believe it does, but I’ll confirm this evening. In the meantime I pulled in glmark2 from Debian testing and ran that - strangely the Ikoula server benchmarks 40 points better than the Terrahost server that performs considerably better in real-world testing, so I don’t know what to think. I feel like I’ve misconfigured something somewhere, but I’m not sure where.

    Sounds like I got out at the right time. My KS-LE never game me a moment’s grief.

    I'm still going to defend OVH. In 9.5 years, I didn't have a single power outage or reboot that I didn't initiate myself. My KS-LE-1 has so far only been just over 12 months, but likewise it's never exhibited any unexpected outages.

    Ikoula is officially dead to me. This server is maximum jank.

    It's all servers at them.

    Nah, not wasting any more hard-earned.

    I dont remember the servers being janky like you describe. Maybe things changed. Sorry that it didn't worked out.

    Have you tried an mtr to see if route is losing packages?

    It is what it is, I’d heard plenty of negative comments to deviously but I thought ‘how bad can a dedi be?’. I can afford to chance £18 if it’s going to potentially save £150ish/year anyway, but I’m not going to throw more money at it and see if things might get better - it’s not worth the time from my perspective.

    I’m working on other options.

    Very little packet loss on my end, maybe 2% over 10 minutes? Latency can fluctuate wildly at times though.

    Ikoula routes most of their traffic through Cogent, so there’s your problem with that.
