Bluehost Doubles CPU Quota

Matt Heaton, the pres­i­dent of Blue​host.com, announced via a mes­sage in their forums that the CPU quota for their users has been dou­bled, and is already in place.

Blue­host is a pop­u­lar, full-​featured, and lead­ing provider of shared web host­ing. This is good and unex­pected news for Blue­host sub­scribers as the low CPU quota was the most common user complaint.

Their home­page is located here: Blue​host.com

The full thread can be found here: “Cpu Quota Changes Effec­tive Now!”

Here’s an excerpt from the message:

“Effec­tive imme­di­ately (Actu­ally as of Friday Jan­u­ary 25th) we have altered the way we cal­cu­late CPU usage. Each user’s cap is now approx­i­mately double what we had it set to pre­vi­ously. Many users have com­plained lately that our cpu quotas were overly restric­tive. I believe these changes should reduce the number of people that run into this prob­lem by about 90%. We will con­tinue to tweak our set­tings to stop only the most abu­sive of users on the system. This was never meant as a way to limit func­tion­al­ity, but rather a way to guar­an­tee resources for servers that are shared by many users.”
