Re: VPS 1 core vs 2 cores

1 core, 2 cores, 2GB RAM, 4GB RAM, the question is only relevant if you have no expandability. Select your software, take its recommendation, and probably a little more, then make sure you can grow as needed. Here is an example. Let's say you go to AWS, get a server that is large enough to
