Mary Jo said: "This is one of the major reasons we went with KAVPS...they don't skimp on the RAM. I personally just get a little leery about running CF, MySQL *and* a mail server on 512MB of RAM. My customer's site which is a really low-traffic site is typically using about 450MB (again though, that's Railo, not sure how the usage with CF would compare). Granted, that amount is just dedicated RAM and it can burst higher, but it's something to really seriously look at, particularly if you have a high-traffic site. "
I'm on the 512MB plan with HMS and you're right, it isn't enough when you start to do things like image resizing and PDF generation. The memory is always maxing out. I also get a *lot* of errors stating "The custom tag top.cfm can't be found" which I put down to this lack of memory (It can't be my code!). I was hoping a thread like this would come up as I'm looking to move to another VPS with 1GB minimum. But, as Will said, the live support is awesome. I've only once not been able to talk to someone. But, it hasn't always been great. I've had problems with the firewall and felt like I've had to go over old ground with the person I'd currently be talking to. I've also had them change my password without telling me. Still amazed they did that! Rick, in your spec list for the deal KA gave you, it doesn't mention SQL Server. Is this included? If so, is it Standard or Express? Cheers.
