Solved Is my host scamming me?

Hello, im currently being hosted by Beastnode. Yes I know that a lot of people dont like Beastnode but im broke and its cheap and easy to run off of.

I bought the highest tier from beastnode and im supposed to be getting 4GB ram. When measuring ram with lagmeter or essentials it only shows that I have a maximum memory of 3500MB. I contacted support and asked where my missing 500MB was and they said that it was just because craftbukkit had allocated that memory to java.

Im running the same CB version, same plugins and everything on a server I run off my computer but it doesnt allocate 500MB to craftbukkit?

Is my host scamming me or are they telling the truth and im just paranoid?

 

If you use Essentials then please post a screenshot or a log from he command /gc

Are you allowed to change the starting parameters of CraftBukkit?

No we can not edit that.
I tested the ram usage with lagmeter aswell, same output.

 

It should be OK then:

With this starting script:

Code:

"C:\Program Files\Java\jre7\bin\java.exe" -Xms1024M -Xmx1024M -jar craftbukkit-1.4.2-R0.2.jar

I get this output:

Code:

13:04:44 [INFO] Current TPS = 20.0
13:04:44 [INFO] Maximaler Speicher: 981 MB
13:04:44 [INFO] Reservierter Speicher: 981 MB
13:04:44 [INFO] Freier Speicher: 760 MB
13:04:44 [INFO] World "world": 625 chunks, 223 entities
13:04:44 [INFO] Nether "world_nether": 625 chunks, 0 entities
13:04:44 [INFO] The End "world_the_end": 625 chunks, 11 entities

Its the allocation of java which works like this, you should check again when your memory is filled up. If you fill up the RAM then CB should request more memory but I'm not sure what starting script they use so its hard to tell.

 

Alright thanks for the help.
