Is my server too weaksauce? (3)
Currently running pops, geo agnostic. Testing out campaigns, not scaling anything hard right now. I want to make sure this isn't a bottle neck. I am running a virtual server on vultr with these specs:
CPU: 2 vCore
RAM: 4096 MB
Storage: 60 GB SSD
Bandwidth: 3000 GB
This is the $20 a month plan. Will this cut it for now or should I upgrade? With all the effort I am putting into getting campaigns up, the last thing I need holding me back is a slow server.
Follow up question, does your CDN performance scale with your server? If your landers are being cached on servers worldwide via a CDN (for me cloudflare), how would your server size directly influence that?
Thanks 
It looks fine, but it depends on the content you serve (static or dynamic). If possible, push all your static files to CDN so it would be a bit easier for your server. If your lps are static, use S3 + Cloudfront to serve them.
Are you running a tracker on that server?
If so, then you should consult your tracker's support team, but it looks like it should be fine for small to medium volumes of traffic. You can always test it out to be sure: https://stmforum.com/forum/showthrea...hlight=gatling
If you're just serving landing pages, then that should be way overkill for a static HTML server. If you're doing programmatic stuff on the server (PHP, Node.JS, Ruby, whatever) that needs to be run on a per-visitor basis then you might have more issues, but if you were doing that you'd probably know about it!
The CDN takes most of the load off your server in addition to its other benefits: it requests your pages once every so often, and then re-serves them to whoever wants them. If you've got a CDN properly set up to cache all files, you should be able to serve 100,000,000 pages a day from a 512mb VPS with no problems
