Linode is taking up the fight with DigitalOcean! With Linodes great reputation I'm sure a lot of people on DO will be trying their service in the coming weeks.

  As a consumer I should enjoy the "race to the bottom" of hosting pricing, but as one who wants to make my own *aaS apps, it's sort of troubling!

  I have a VPS with DigitalOcean and for some reason, logging in over SSH takes disturbingly long. I may decide to switch over to Linode with these new prices.

      Turning off UseDNS as suggested by user grey-area did the trick for me.

    I have experienced this too. I never inquired but it seems worse on NY2.

        Sweet. Thanks, that did the trick.

    This may be an issue with ssh trying to resolve reverse DNS on your server - you can check by turning off UseDNS in ssh settings and logging in again.

      Hey, thank you very much. I did as you said and now login is much much faster :D
