Optimal config for Virtualizor for VPS hosting?

[Minhaz]

Hi guys,

I recently purchased an Intel Xeon E3-1240 v5 @ 3.50GHz (4 Cores/8 Threads) and I am curious as to how many VPS I could deploy, may be at 2vCPU and 2GB RAM.

Virtualizor support said if I configured the server correctly, I could host up to 10 VPS clients with the above configs. But I wanted to check if anyone of you know what specific config I should do on Virtualizor and if you guys from experience can verify if with the above Dedicated server I could deploy up to 10 VPS.

Thank you.

Based on my experience, with the correct configuration in Virtualizor, you should be able to host up to 10 VPS clients at 2vCPU and 2GB RAM each on your Intel Xeon E3-1240 v5 @ 3.50GHz server.
Make sure to allocate resources efficiently and monitor server performance regularly to ensure smooth operation for all VPS clients.

Thank you for your reply based on your experience. To clarify a few things:

1. What do you mean by "Make sure to allocate resources efficiently..."?
2. On a high level, is it safe to assume that 4 cores and 8 thread CPUs translate to 20vCPUs?

The number of VPS that can be deployed on a Xeon E3-1240 v5 depends on various factors such as the desired performance of each VPS and the workload they will be running. As a general rule of thumb, it is recommended to allocate at least 1 vCPU and 1GB RAM for each VPS to ensure smooth performance.

Based on this rule, you could potentially deploy up to 4 VPS with 2 vCPU and 2GB RAM each on your Xeon E3-1240 v5 server. However, the actual number of VPS that can be deployed may vary depending on the specific workload and resources required by each VPS.

Hi...
Yes, with your Intel Xeon E3-1240 v5 server, you can host up to 10 VPS clients with 2 vCPUs and 2GB RAM each. Ensure you:

1. Use fast SSD storage.
2. Enable KVM in Virtualizor.
3. Monitor CPU and RAM usage to prevent overallocation.

It depends if you want to oversell your service or not. Allocating 2 vCPU to 1 VPS essentially means you can deploy 4 VPS' without overselling your resources, anymore than 4 then you're overselling your CPU.

How much RAM do you have?

On a high level, is it safe to assume that 4 cores and 8 thread CPUs translate to 20vCPUs?

No, it's 8 threads in total - not per core.

You'd be better served spinning up the largest possible server you can for hypervisors. Fill all the sockets, memory slots, and disk caddies!
