AWS c5a.8xlarge. Disks are gp2 just like Lightsail and remain crappy, although AWS offers a different kind of disks which you can use instead for better performance, although as expected they're priced higher than gp2.
I bought max CPU, min RAM and disk, then upgraded to 2x32GB 3200Mhz Kingston Fury and a 2TB EVO Plus NVMe.
Super cool. (And jealous)
Interesting to note that you could upgrade 2 sticks of RAM- here in India most Thinkpads E, L, ... come with 8 GB soldered + 1 RAM slot. As per OEM specs, mine max'es out 24 GB (16+8). And Officially they support 1.5 TB (500 GB OEM + 1 TB NVMe) storage.
What OS do you run? How is the heating/ fan noise?
Sorry about too many Q's- the last two I am having a bit of an issue with Manjaro/

Not a problem So the L series, is afaik the only model that has non-soldered RAM. Actually the main reason I went with it.
I'm running vanilla Arch + KDE, with own custom kernel for zen3 thinkpad. (5.17 rc) There have been some hiccups, and not everything is exactly how I'd like, but running the rc kernel with the AMD Pstate driver has really helped thermal and battery. In turn, it's usually pretty quiet. As you can see by the bench it idles at 400Mhz. Gives the control completely to the SoC, so it's completely optimized for speed and battery life.
Which do you have? I can share my PKGBUILD or defconfig with you for the kernel.

We really need to start an equivalent of A/S/L for YABS.
( Agency or Provider, Operating System, Location, ) etc..that may help determine who the YABS is for unless the poster mentions difficult to tell.
OS of course will be Linux in almost all cases, the choice of distro may govern the YABS results as the learned and the wise in this forum have mentioned.

im way behind plan on that index, and its now rather long for manual entry. any smarter way to do it ?

Encourage users to post these details? Some do, most do not. Heck ask admin to start deleting posts which do not ;-) Do for a few others will fall in line. j/k

LOL, I haven't heard ASL in over 15 years.
It could be written into the YABS script, but if the provider doesn't run their own network, it's gonna have the wrong provider info on it. Location data is easily wrong too. Still, OS I think would be a great idea to write into it.
OS & uptime, something I did share with @Mason just recently.
Yes, getting the provider and location details would be somewhat a hit and miss.
Maybe ASNumber + ASName would suffice.

My laptop, just for fun...(I'm using the new AMD P-state driver, so the clock speed is showing wrong in YABS)

This would be really easy to add with a single curl to ipinfo.io, example:

Yeah, it'll work for providers that have AS, but not for providers that just rent all their servers or don't have AS or properly SWIP'd IP space.

How about implementing and issuing a pull request? it's an open source project y'all know? ;-)
I think OS and kernel are useful
boomer
If you can find any use at all for it then it’s well worth 50 cents
You don't want to see my attempt at scripting that.. it'd be rough.

last bench advinservers
after a node kernel upgrade and reboot
note its NVMe RAID 5 and 1/2 vCore
I bench YABS 24/7/365 unless it's a leap year.
I am looking for a use for it.
If I build a server monitoring, it is barely possible, but the memory is a little less, which may be more laggy.
boomer
Looks great.
