rackspace has a .co.uk domain, which suggests they have Europe datacenters.
Not sure if slicehost does. I found this comparison on slicehost vs linode. Basically, the article is stating that since slicehost uses x86_64 processors it uses more memory than linode who uses x86 processors. So if your memory is tight, you actually get more bang for your buck on a x86 processor. http://journal.dedasys.com/2008/11/24/slicehost-vs-linode Though, I have never had a problem with web2py and memory usage until I installed ruby on the system :) -Thadeus On Sun, Feb 21, 2010 at 6:20 AM, Alex Fanjul <alex.fan...@gmail.com> wrote: > However, the first problem for me (and the reason I chose VPS) is the > latency to nodes from Europe.
