Heh...   I beat you.

04:40:45 up 353 days,  4:58,  1 user,  load average: 0.03, 0.03, 0.00


I use my slice for web hosting, mail, VPN, yada yada...   It has been
completely reliable.  All in all, I am extremely pleased and would recommend
them to just about anyone.   I also host a DNS server on a slice for
tertiary backup DNS.

So you don't like updating your box, huh?

Kidding...

Or use my email instead :-)

I've got 2 Linode accounts and one slicehost, both do the job 
(web/mail/dns/etc). One Linode is for a client, but the other one paired with 
the Slicehost handle all my stuff now, since I'm allergic to 
hurricane-induced downtime these days.

I have a 256mb slice.
here's my uptime:
b...@morbos_slice ~ $ w
  13:03:49 up 340 days, 13:00,  1 user,  load average: 0.00, 0.00, 0.00


It's been pretty stable. About the last time it went down, they sent me an
email that my slice was found to be on unstable hardware, so they needed
to down it to move it. Which they did, and it's been up since.
I can't comment much on the performance per se, I don't really have much
of a load on mine. But there is a link on their site where you can see
what other sites are running on a slice. You can maybe guage the
performance from that.
http://wiki.slicehost.com/doku.php?id=list_of_websites_currently_hosted_on_slicehost

For me it's pretty speedy, I have mysql running and my website where I
upload pictures and such, but I don't have anything that really puts
a load on it.


If you don't already have a referral, it would be great (for me) if you'd
use me as a referral.

Any other questions, let me know.
