FAQ - Bare-Metal Servers
Q. What are the advantages of bare-metal? How is it different from a VPS?
Bare-metal servers provide a physically dedicated server exclusively for your use. VPS servers are virtual environments, dividing physical CPU cores into multiple virtual CPUs (vCPUs), allowing more vCPUs than actual physical cores.
- For performance-oriented use: Bare-metal servers are recommended.
- For cost-performance optimization: VPS servers are recommended.
Q. Are dedicated Shreds nodes faster?
Yes, dedicated Shreds nodes are faster. Compared to shared endpoints, dedicated Shreds nodes allow configurations optimized specifically for your use case, fully maximizing machine performance.
Q. I want the best possible environment.
We recommend using a dedicated Shreds node combined with our bare-metal servers. Sharing the same network enables zero-distance communication, achieving latency as low as approximately 0.1 ms ping.
For details, please contact us via the official Discord.
Q. What is the latency like?
Latency significantly varies based on measurement methods and environments. Rather than relying on specific numbers, we recommend verifying if our endpoints meet your actual requirements using our free trials.
Q. Is this RPC (gRPC, Shreds) faster than others?
Use our free trial to directly compare our services. If you find our service slower, please share specific conditions via Discord. We will promptly investigate and improve our service.
Q. Which is the fastest: WebSockets, gRPC, or Shreds?
According to aggregated customer feedback, the performance order is:
Shreds > gRPC > WebSockets
Please inform us if you observe different results.
Q. Latency isn't what I expected.
Performance varies based on the programming language used. Typically, language performance ranks as follows:
Rust > Go > TypeScript (JavaScript) > Python
For detailed comparisons, see the following resource:
We strongly recommend using Rust for achieving the highest performance.
