[1/2] It seems like one side effect of standard server stacks being so slow is that when you go to rent a dedicated server, you get something with massively more horsepower than its uplink could really use.

[2/2] Pricing out one server provider, their _lowest_ horsepower machines ran from ~$60/mo for 86 cycles _per byte_ to ~$130/mo for 217 cycles per byte of traffic. Granted, HTTPS takes some of that away by being spectacularly awful, but still. 217 cycles for every single byte!

If it's expensive for your workload then you might consider buying hardware and set it somewhere in Romania since they have cheapest internet.

It's not expensive. It's just massively unbalanced compared to its uplink.
