Sunset VDS
We have decided to temporarily stop providing VDS. The partnership with firstvds.ru did not work out and turned out to be unprofitable. Not the best reputation, large overselling (selling resources beyond the actual capacity of the server), buggy billing, slow and negligent technical support - all this is firstvds.ru. Accordingly, our own reputation suffers because of a negligent partner.
Old customers who ordered VDS will continue to work as usual.
VDS, already its own, will definitely appear in the future. Stay tuned for more news.
Report for May 22
05/22/2012 at 23.30 (gmt +3) the server failed for 15 minutes. Let's investigate. We are ready to compensate for downtime, please contact us.
Update May 24th
A detailed study of the incident led to rather unexpected conclusions: one of our clients subjected their own website to a distributed attack (ddos), citing testing as the reason. The client is strictly warned, IP addresses are blocked, and anti-DDoS measures are strengthened.
Victory
Yesterday our system administrators managed to localize and eliminate problem with apache, which caused short-term stutters and 502 and 504 errors.
Thanks to everyone who stayed with us, taking into account, albeit small and short-term, problems.

Night work
On April 30, at 1.00 Kyiv time (GMT+2), we will be working on updating Apache to solve this problem. A short-term (up to 10 minutes) suspension of web services is possible.
News from the fronts
We periodically experience problems with Apache, and therefore sometimes a 502/504 or “slowdown” error occurs for a short time (for 5-10 minutes). We understand, we react, we take action.
Stay tuned for more news.
Have a nice flight
As a result of scheduled work on the morning of April 26th, user databases were transferred to an SSD drive. Significantly increased response, reading and writing speeds. Stay tuned for improvements to our service.

Thank you for your understanding.
IOwait approaches 0
On the night of April 14, during scheduled work, the hard drives were replaced with more productive ones.
The response time of the file system has decreased, the overall performance of the operating system has increased, the input/output waiting time (iowait) has been reduced from 20-30% to 0.2-1%.
