Pangolin on a free Oracle VPS.
is there a bandwidth/throughput limit on Oracle VPS?
Something like 10TB. I’m an incredibly heavy user and I’d have to quadruple all of my usage, including home, to hit it.
Yes it's 10TB.
I nearly hit the cap once when I first testing sunshine/moonlight to see how much bandwidth my set up could do and kinda FOMO for the steam deck hype.
It's like 150 mb/s and works so well (for the kind of games I play) that I forgot the egress cap and just play for like a weeks even in the house, I realized and stop at ~ 9TB. My usual usage don't even hit a TB most of the time lol.
How do you monitor the total bandwidth? Last I tried it was super convoluted.
It is.
I just go to the https://cloud.oracle.com/account-management/cost-analysis page and looks at the current usage every now and then.
Fair. Friend’s account got suspended yesterday btw, you never know when they start hating you, so this is your reminder to check your backups
Not that I've noticed.
