I recently moved from servage to shinjiru because servage was unable to handle the amount of resources I needed to run my site. so I switched to shinjirus VPS hosting plan and im having that very same problem again . How can i keep the number of resources I use to a minimum so I can stop going over the limit. its frustrating having to upgrade every two weeks for a site that I just started 3 months ago. any help would be greatly appreciated.
What kind of a site is it and what resources are you talking about? (Space, bandwidth, RAM, CPU power?)
cat /proc/user_beancounts and see what is under failcnt top vmstat etc pm if you need help, I have HSP/VZ/PLK running over here. -Aaron
Honestly, you need to look at higher quality shared plans. Servage is on the bottom of that list. Moving to a VPS will often make the problem worse.
Um change to a lower resource hungry control panel like ispcp. Just plesk alone takes allot of ram. What you can do is lower your cron jobs and space them apart if bunched up together, you can also use cpu limiting programs for these cron jobs.If your executing backups in that case limiting bzip. Edit your apache and mysql config to use less resources. To find out what's gobling all your memory type "top" in ssh.
thanks everyone i was told that the only way to fix my problem is to upgrade to a 179 dollar a month dual core dedicated server. are they just telling me this to get some extra money out of me, or can this problem be fixed?
Shinjiru is the WORST host i have ever been with. You can not get more than 200kps transfers from their server to ANYWHERE in the world. I get more than 200kps from my home ADSL line.(to compare my server in Amsterdam does between 6-8mbps transfer when downloading RPM's and such things) When you question them about it they tell you that they can get 2mbps from their offices in Malaysia.... so everything is "fine" and "normal", when you start to press them a little about the fact that they are the slowest provider on earth, they get really angry and rude and hostile and start saying that you should have tested them before going with them and that it's all your fault. They clearly admit that 200kps is the MOST you will ever get from their network from outside Malaysia. This is the quote that sticks out in my mind. "Sir Everything is fine here, your customers in Malaysia will be seeing your sites fine and they will load fast for your customers in Malaysia"... meaning anyone outside Malaysia to them is unimportant. Then when you try and cancel they try and take some fee out to punish you for leaving. Forget about Shinjiru.com, BAD HOSTING COMPANY. Horrible hostile and rude support.
