Has anyone tried anything like this with dreamhost?
Yes and they are probably one the best in the "mass virtual hosting market".
We have different definitions of "one of the best"
From their server I do a simple du on a couple GB of data. === [arizona]$ time du -sh * 120M config-enc-raw 387M home-enc-raw 1.8G srv-enc-raw
real 64m27.529s user 0m0.650s sys 0m2.540s ===
From my server with significantly larger superset of data:
# time du -sh config-enc-raw/ home-enc-raw/ config-enc-raw/ 120M config-enc-raw/ 10G home-enc-raw/ 1.8G srv-enc-raw/ real 1m33.608s user 0m0.568s sys 0m5.148s === Thats about 40 times slower than my machine with is nothing special (ie. 5 year old P4 technology with a 3ware dual-channel raid-1 setup). I'm still testing. (I need to time some actual rsync passes. I'm particularly curious how it responds in the middle of the night.)
If you have different needs, your next step is probably a VPS.
I have one from slicehost, but they don't even offer 300GB+ of disk capacity . Greg -- Greg Freemyer The Norcross Group Forensics for the 21st Century -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
