FreeBSD 9.1 Release Announcement

Where are good, popular and cheap options to run FreeBSD in a VPS? (From the three should I pick any two?)

Tilaa (http://tilaa.nl) is my go-to for a few reasons. It's not as popular/well known as it ought to be, at least in English.

There's also ARP Networks (http://www.arpnetworks.com), which seems to have a good reputation, and RootBSD (https://www.rootbsd.net), which seems expensive for what you get. I haven't personally tried either.

I can give a huge thumbs up for ARPnet. They are based in downtown LA (and peer @ 1 Wilshire and I think they also are part of the Any2Net exchange from CoreSite), they also fully support IPv6 on VPC's as well as managed servers.

I've had both from them and have found support to be excellent. Honestly can't say enough good things about these guys.

Tilaa looks excellent! Thanks for the pointer. Can you please describe your experience with them in some detail?

I don't have the energy to type up a big long thing. Been with them over a year no problems encountered in that time, network seems stable and performant, they do not appear to oversell. If you have specific questions I'll try to answer them.

FreeBSD 9.1 Amazon ami has been released. I've been running on FreeBSD on EC2 for a while without issue.

I tried both CloudSigma and ElasticHosts and they seem to work fine with 8.x and 9.x.

(at least on 8.x I had to move kern.timecounter.hardware away from HPET)

VDS6 (http://vds6.net/) has some very cheap IPv6-only plans. They use BSD Jail for virtualization.
