[Nolug] A week with MOSSO

Just FYI:

Mosso is the offering from rackspace based on their purchase of
slicehost last year. It is cheaper then slicehost and the testmaker
tests we have running for freeswitch, apache and python are showing
that we are about 22% faster on the 15.5gb vm from mosso as opposed to
the 15.5gb slice we have at slicehost.

I am really surprised by this, because rdns for everything at mosso is
slicehost. And I know it's a one-off... Although the dns tool at
mosso sucks in comparison to everything else i've seen :)

Anyhow, I know there are a few devs on the list. Who knows how long
performance will be acceptable before they overcrowd the servers.
They seem to be using an ultra patched xen 3.2 as the hypervisors, so
hopefully the cpu pri gets tuned well enough per domU.
