I just moved over to a Dual Xeon Box.. Same setup as Erwin's.
I was at Nocster for the last 6 months on a dedicated PIV 2.0 with 512mb Ram and 300 gigs bandwidth. I wasn't real happy with the latency/lag issues that started happening about 3 months into using them. At first they were great but the network errors and lag never seemed to die. At the same time my forums were growing like a weed and it all added up to be an aggrevating situation. Before that I had another dedicated at RS for about a year. I moved to Nocster from RS because I really wanted to have cPanel again. After they started offering it with the Dual Xeon SCSI box's, I couldn't pass it up. There is nothing I hate more than lag in my forums.
With this new dedicated Xeon, they FLY.. I can have over 240 people on at one time on one community, 60 on another and it doesn't so much as flinch! Loads never exceed .5 during this..
Puts a big smile on my face, though more of a dent in my wallet than I like.
I've got plenty of room if anyone needs really fast community hosting. I just have the box for my forums and a few friends sites, and might help out a few others if needed.

I've been with RS for a year now, its been great. Just ordered a 512MB upgrade for my server. I might order another server from them just because they have a special going on, $1 setup fee. :)

Yup, with 1200 Gb bandwidth per month... I can't use it all... :)

LOL, I am trying but have a long way to go. I was starting to worry about one of my forums 100+ gig's a month bandwidth habit (and watching it get larger by the month) but it should be covered for a good while now.
I can also toss the videos online for friends and family to download.

Don't dream of 5000+ members just yet, bandwidth goes sky high :(

I wish I could develop a site big enough in need for a 'Type-Erwin' Server. I have no community actually but I hope the one I help for will grow :( It only has 2 members, and Im NOT one of them.

Been running on a RS dedicated server for about 2 months now, and couldn't be happier. :) Good to see so many fellow members here as part of the club!

I need another server now :(

I have a P4 2.4GHz with 1GB RAM and my server load is over 100% during half of the day. It's sad :(

If you have a busy site, check to see if your disk is swapping a lot. If so, upgrade to 2 GB RAM. It will help a lot.
