Hi, I am looking for a economic VPS hosting plan to try and test some of my applications for sometime. Maybe after I start to generate some revenue or become sure of my priority apps, I would consider a little higher-end options. I have never bought a VPS plan before. My requirements are: run most standard servers like web, mail, FTP, SSH, DNS and apps like Wiki, mailing list, and other custom servers in python and java. Some of these Java/Python servers would be running for a long time (weeks). How much RAM, CPU etc on a VPS do you recommend?

I found out that VPS hosting in Europe is considerably cheaper than in the US- is it also worth going for? Some of them don't have very good English-language support, but I might be able to deal with it, given that I am convinced about the advantages (and terms and conditions :)

I have seen some comparision here [http://meshfields.de/host-europe-godaddy-hetzner-rackspace/] but still feel that I don't have enough information to decide. Please help me choose from among these (most of these have ~10 euro per month plans):

* 1 and 1

* hosteurope.de

* hetzner.de

* server4you.de

* strato.de

* serverloft
