I know Cloudflare has a not for profit and community resources free plan on 
their platform. Maybe we could look at that to make up any difference with 
speed in relation to ram caching? Also helps save bandwidth.

Subject: moving the LUV VM

I've set all the LUV DNS entries to have a 120 second timeout.  Sometime in
the next 24 hours I'm going to move the VM to a new server.  The current
server has 2*2TB disks in a RAID-1 array which turns out to not have the write
bandwidth for all the VMs.  The new server has 2*512G SSDs in a RAID-1 array
and 1*2TB disk for storing larger files.  The new server has less RAM (32G vs
64G) but that's more than enough for all VMs and just means less caching (the
performance difference of SSD vs hard disk should make up for that).

The LUV VM doesn't use much storage bandwidth apart from the Matrix server.
It's mostly other VMs that are using the bandwidth.  The decision to use free
hosting means that there are some trade-offs, one of which is sharing the
bandwidth with a bunch of other VMs and having to move when they exceed the
hardware capacity.

Probably the main thing that people might notice is performance of the
Wordpress site, particularly when logging in and editing.
