Rate your Linode at RateMyLinode.com (just launched today!)
here for more details
Have you ever wanted to monitor your average io rate over time? Ever been curious how low your io rate is in comparioson to others? Now you can find out exactly.
For about the past month in my spare time I've developed http://www.ratemylinode.com
~~![](<URL url=)http://www.ratemylinode.com/daily.png
Feel free to sign up all your Linodes, if you're ashamed of your io rate you can set your statistics to be private so they won't show up on http://www.ratemylinode.com/rankings.html/
Have fun! If you run into problems on the website, you can kick me an email via the comments link, or find me on IRC as warewolf.~~

What a cool service. Seeing as all the hosts use NTP you might start seeing problems
when 50 or 100 clients connect within the same second.
@sednet:
Debian users might need to apt-get install libwww-perl before the client will run.

Highly unlikely, even lightweight public ntp servers handle a ton of traffic. NTP is a very light protocol.

His point was that since all the servers have accurate clocks, every user has the Rate My Linode cron job running at the exact same second, which will be hard on its server.

Are you using Xen? (Xen icon in the dashboard, and probably "domU" in your kernel version.) RateMyLinode doesn't work in Xen yet.
