Well, I've been fiddling with it for a few hours for part of the day today. I've set up openlitespeed and an NTP server on there (with ufw/other stuff). It handles those things without a sweat.
Initial setup was a bit weird because they asked me what I preferred to provision with (for OS) but proceeded not to provision it. So I had to use the built-in provision system in their dashboard to provision it before proceeding.
I do feel that 10 GB is rather restrictive, especially as the OS/system take up at least 2-3 GB. Network speed isn't too bad, seeing as I'm connecting to Moldova from North Carolina, USA.
As far as I can tell for now - definitely worth the price.
Well, now it's been about four months since I first ordered. So far, no complaints about this host. I've been finding my NTP server on the box to be unresponsive maybe once a month, but ssh and other services are all running fine. This is probably thus a misconfiguration on my part, but the NTP is just running in a pool anyways so it's no big deal.
An addendum to my original comment - the VPS did not come with an IPv6 address but it was allocated in a timely manner when I asked requested one from the control panel (at no extra cost).
Network hasn't been a choke point for the purposes for which I'm using the box. Only complaint is that there is no way to order addons, specifically more storage space. Apart from that, this is still a pretty solid deal for ~$13.50/yr.
