How to Utilize Multi-core System

So I found a really good deal with a VPS:
Disk Space (RAID 10): 350GB
Bandwidth: Unmetered - 100MBPS
RAM: 16GB
CPU: AMD Opteron, 4 core - 2.1 ghz eac
Price: $28.50/month

The problem is the CPU... Bukkit won't be able to handle many people due to the lack of multi-core processing + its an AMD Opteron at 2.1 ghz.... I'm wondering if there are any good plugins or things I can do that would utilize multi-threading.

Or if you have found a better VPS deal out there, why not post it?

 

Can't be done without rewriting bukkit.

Might have wanted to search/read any other thread on the bukkit forums.

 

Run multiple servers that are different types

 

Link to this deal?

 

Read the post again... I acknowledge that Bukkit isn't multi-threaded. I'm wondering what plugins or ways I can use the multi-core (NoLagg).

Interesting idea, I'm looking for one server though.

I have found a dedicated server for $88/month instead. 8GB ram, i5-2400, SSD RAID 1... 150-200 players I would say.

 

Im currenting running on a dedicated server $73 a month, 32GB ram, i7 2600k 3.4GHz, 2 x3TD RAID 1 ssd.

 

Got a link? Or is it no longer available?

I'm assuming it is not an SSD and got the server from Hetzner: http://www.hetzner.de/en/hosting/produkte_rootserver/ex4s

$74/month + $74 setup fee?

 

Howd you guess xD, yes its not ssd but the HDD's are at 6gb/s plus you can buy ssd if you need it

 

Reverse IP lookup

I considered that server, but I'm considering ovh.ie because of zero setup fee. I did find a decent server at Hetzner ($0 setup) $96/month.

 

You can have the ex4s from Hetzner for 100$ with a 120GB SSD and it's rock solid for a good amount of MC servers.

 

You can't change the main bukkit to multi-thread, but you can try to use plugins that take advantage of multi-threading. This would releave some of the extra strain on the main server thread by the plugins you use. VariableTriggers is very powerfull and lets you do much to create your own plugin like features and most of its proccessing in done on seperate Threads.

 

Sounds like a cool plugin! It's like programming within the Minecraft game.

For $96 I got a VPS that is better than ex4s imho. Intel i7 980x (ranked 18th by passmark), 2x128GB SSD, 24GB RAM, 100 Mb/s.

It's from Hetzner too!

Yes it is, but if you don't understand the basic one line command structure and don't want to mess with all that just use the sinple one or two line commands on a trigger you can still get amazing effects.

 

I need 32gb RAM for hosting purpose
