CrimsonGT Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 For those of you who are hosting minecraft, how do you rent them out? Do you do it by the player count as normal, or do you rent it based on the amount of RAM allocated to it? I have set it up for some of our dedicated server clients, but the RAM allocation worries me. I don't know if that is the max amount it can use or if that is how much it uses (I assume the first). Most of our shared hosting machines only run 12-16GB of RAM and use about 8GB of it on average.

dimitrifrom31 Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 a minecraft server often spikes at the max ram its allocated. so better sell ram and leave users edit slots as they wish (you cant monitor it anyway) Im selling them based on ram, i made a guide to automatically setup servers based on ram sold. Check my sig if interested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trancemode Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 yep, they do take a bunch of rams. so if your going to be hosting tons of mc servers, you should expand more memory. especially if your ALREADY hitting 8GB average. people always max out the rams of what they purchased. however, CPU isn't much used of resources.
