Note that the cheapest PieLayer configuration doesn't have enough disk space for the blockchain, you need the 45GB configuration ($7 per month)

Welcome aboard

I thought that was clear from my snapshot. The current blockchain size can be seen here: https://blockchain.info/charts/blocks-size

Since we are on the topic of cheap VPSs... I'm getting quite some downtime with VertVPS. Not all their fault apparently, but that doesn't help the uptime.

Thanks for confirming Newar. I got the same configuration and installed a Bitcoin node. It has almost finished to download the blockchain: http://blaxxky.com/bitcoin_node_info.php

DigitalOcean has some good servers. They are inexpensive and seem reliable too.
