VPS -- Questions

[Black Reaper]

Hey, due to the fact that I really know absolutely nothing about the details of hosting, I have a few questions.

Firstly does Linux Apache MySQL PHP Developer VPS | myhosting.com meet the requirements to allow me to host an otserv on it, ignoring the ram, bandwith, cpu at this point.

Also, just for a reference say a 20mb map.
*What would an appropriate processor speed be? -- does this vary on the amount of players? -- how does this affect the ots performance?
*Approx how much ram per player? -- ram/100 players
*Approx bandwidth per player?
*How much hard drive space is necessary? -- does this really matter assuming I have enough space for the files?

I really appreciate any information on this. Thanks a lot.

Ok, I have 6 servers.
One of them has 344 players and it takes like ~600 mb ram
18 mb map.
Once uptime reaches 120 hours , it gets up to 1 gigs.
Guess that's all you need to know. Just have a decent processor and you'll be fine.

I guess 1.13 ghz won't fulfil your needs.

Thanks so much, how much bandwidth do you use also?

About 16kbit/player. Depending on scripts it's from 0.2mb to about 1MB per player. 1GB HDD is enough. CPU is also depending on scripts. But I think you can do fine with 1.13ghz.
