Recommended VPS configuration to avoid lags
-
Sorex Thank you for your help but I'm looking for a long term solution, I don't mind the downtime. Also I don't say I'm having issues with Wine it's just that I wonder why the CPU usage was so high even with a 2vCores CPU that should easily handle an IW5 server and 4gb ram

I still didn't find a website that has what I need with a decent cost so if anyone has a recommendation that would be great. I wanna pay around 4/5$ per month but now I'm scared that Wine would cause performance issues idk
which country do you want to host the server in tho?

Dss0 an european country close to Germany

@lResxt OVH, hetzner, online.net. In germany there's also netcup (allows to upload your own .iso and boot from it so you could install windows server on it) and contabo.

Try the "Windows VC10-4" from Strato. I only had good experiences with the hoster. On 2vCPU and 4GB RAM i can host 6 Pluto/Tekno servers comfortably. And its hosted in the EU for 8€ a month but look out for sales.
Concering your Performance Problem with Linux, I had a dedicated Server on Hetzner and tried to run MW3 servers there. I tried it with Windows and different Linux distros, always had the same problem you are facing, poor performance and lags.
I bet it has something to do with the firewalls leading to your game server and back to the client. Just try to change your hoster, rent a small VPS just for a test run.You may also try to contact your current hoster and ask him about the performance problems you are experiencing.

My Hetzner servers are lag free unless someone tries to ddos them and the grace period of the firewalls is still active for the connections.

Do you use dedicated servers with a custom hypervisor and VMs or a vps?
Probably my Xenserver was just badly configured aswell as my VMs. But most of my services were quite responsive, just game servers performed poorly. -
Dedicated HW only with proxmox and kvm VMs.

Resxt I know it's been a while, friend, but the vps is not the problem, if not the wine, I went through the same thing when using wine, it runs 30% more, the server 34%, almost all the % of the cpu and if the server fills up more, the problem is wine I recommend using windows
-
VZLAxSmoke Yeah in the meantime I switched to Windows, it just works right away without performance issues.
I know that there are some people hosting servers (even like 10) on Linux without issues so it might be a matter of Wine version or something like that maybe -
Resxt well I was using a vps with 4 ram 4 cores and the truth is that the jerks were ugly and that it was only an sv
the vps is from a friend who lent me to try and I noticed that the wine was at 80% consuming the cpu the vps is from this page
