Re: a host for the Lua site

[Michael Bernstein <michael@...>]

I'll post this to the main list that way comparisons can be done so the
best situation can be figured out for the lua site.

Basically, I run simoniac.com.  Currently, we have 35 gigabytes of
transfer per month...and we're only using about 1 gig per month.

We have full control over the server (I run it and administrate it),
are currently running jabberd, apache, postfix, imaps, and a few other
things which are used via ssh tunnels to the server to bypass the
firewall.

Our current disk makeup is as follows, indicating that there would be
plenty of space for the lua project.  We are running debian linux and
have a low load average  (17:37:38 up 18 days, 15:37,  1 user,  load
average: 0.07, 0.06, 0.01) (18 days since a kernel upgrade happened).  I
can also setup unlimited mail forwards for lua.org and allow a
ssh/sftp/scp access to update the server as well as cvs for revision
control for the web site.



/dev/ubda             391M  111M  280M  29% /
tmpfs                  45M     0   45M   0% /dev/shm
/dev/ubdf             690M  502M  182M  74% /usr
/dev/ubdc             739M  234M  506M  32% /home
/dev/ubdd             195M   19M  175M  10% /var/log
/dev/ubde             3.0G  1.4G  1.6G  47% /var/www
/dev/ubdg             292M   14M  275M   5% /var/cvs



Hope this helps,
