		lsc on Oct 16, 2010 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: Minecraftwiki serving more traffic than Stackoverf... more to the point, for $5K a month you get 2x32GiB ram 8 core 4 disk servers, capacity for 16 of your 4GiB VPSs. so with two months up front cost, then another $200/month you can get the same capacity as those 32 linodes. Even if you have to pay $100/hr for your hardware guy (which is above market) you are saving a ridiculous amount of money.

And then add in the bandwidth and the savings explode several times over...
