Which conclude my first tests of SB on xsserver.eu's VPS.
Overall, after these first 24h, I'm satisfied with this VPS.
Set up was quite fast (8h after order) and went without any problem.
Scrapebox runs smoothly and I still have a very decent connection speed.
About the 512Mb RAM: during these tests the memory load peaked at 85%, which means more RAM is not an absolute requirement, although 512 is just enough.
And for $25 a month, I consider that's a steal.
I would personally recommend xsserver.eu if you want a VPS for SB (or other tools such as AMR, SENuke etc.).
The $25 package I chose is ok to run SB if you want a cheap VPS, however it might be advisable to consider the $35 package (1024Mb RAM) to be sure you won't run out of memory and if you want to run several instances or other tools at the same time.
I can't say about their support as I didn't have to contact them, but considering other's feedback, it seems decently responding.
And if you're not lucky as I have been and end up in bad neighborhood with a shitty connection speed, there may be a solution if you contact them about this (see bk071's post just above).
Btw, bk071, I don't mind at all, actually I even thank you for your additional input to this review thread.
That's it for the moment. I hope everything will continue to run as smoothly as it did until now and I will report back in here if I have additional info or if anything changes in the next days/weeks.
EDIT:
By the way, I blasted a link to promote an ebook during this fast poster test. I already made $10 from one sale. 2 more and my VPS will have paid for itself for this month
