LoyceV's 0.1 sat/vbyte Electrum Server Adventure

[joker_josue]

The main problem is high load from other tasks, which causes my host to throttle my server's CPUs (even though they said they don't do that). Ideally, I should get a better server, but I've just extended this one until December ($220).
I'll reduce the number of parallel threads for processing Trust list data.

I've been probing to mount a node on a server.
I think I've asked before, but based on these months of use, what are the features that you consider good for a node/explorer?

I'm not sure what you mean. With "features", do you mean just specs? CPU, RAM, disk and bandwidth?

Yes, that's it.

I was thinking of something like this:

CPU - 8 cores Dedicated
RAM - 32 GB
NVMe - 2000 GB Disk
Bandwidth - 250 Mbps Unlimited (or)
10 Gbps up to 32 TB then 10 Mbps unlimited
1 IPv4 Included
Server Location: Montreal, Canada

I was thinking of something like this:

That looks excessive for just a node, so it should work quite well
From what I've seen on Lowendtalk, those newer "Slices" have better performance than mine. It says Dedicated cores, and they say they don't do overprovisioning, but they also said that with mine so I can't be sure.

Note: I haven't installed my own block explorer on this server. I don't know how demanding that is.

I'm thinking of setting everything up on the same server.

Now I just need to get organized to make this adventure/investment a reality.

Electrum is very friendly now to make 0.x sat/vB.

I tried once without changing servers, it worked. But the second time the server refused to broadcast. THen I switched to loycev server and it worked   Thanks LoyceV

Edit: I had a little trouble finding this line. Please make it more visible, maybe even first line of OP.

Server is running: electrum.loyce.club:50002

Electrum is very friendly now to make 0.x sat/vB.

But you still need to use "wallet.relayfee = (lambda: 0)" or TryNinja's plugin, right?

Done:

I'm currently installing my very first Electrum server electrum.loyce.club:50002 , and figured I'd start a topic to keep track of my progress.

But this may not be enough if Electrum still needs some tweaks, so don't stop reading at the first line

I just wrote the smallest Electrum plugin ever that just runs this command at start.

Where did this file go?
