What Cutter is for
The Cutter line is built on dedicated AMD EPYC 9004 cores with no steal time, which means your processes get the full CPU all the time. It is the right purchase when your workload is production, sustained, or latency-sensitive, and you cannot tolerate noisy neighbours. If you are running something where a stutter costs money, this is the line. It is the default for good reason.
People run web applications, databases, game servers, CI runners, Docker hosts, and mail servers. The dedicated cores handle steady load without spiking, the NVMe RAID-10 keeps I/O predictable, and the transfer allowance suits constant traffic. The generous per-core specs keep small team deployments from outgrowing the box quickly.
Choosing a size
Choose the size by counting what you will run simultaneously, not what you might run later. A Cutter 4 runs a small web stack; a Cutter 32 handles several game servers or a busy database. If you regularly watch CPU steal time or disk I/O wait under load, you have bought too small.

Frequently asked questions
Who is the Cutter line for?
Dedicated vCPU with no steal time, NVMe RAID-10, and generous transfer. This is the line most customers run web applications, databases and game servers on.
Are Cutter cores dedicated?
Yes. Each vCPU is a physical thread reserved for your instance, with no other tenant scheduled against it, so steal time is effectively zero.
Can I upgrade later?
CPU and RAM increase with a short reboot, and disk grows online. Moving down a tier requires a rebuild, so start smaller than you think you need.
What does dedicated-core mean for performance?
It means your vCPUs are mapped to physical cores exclusively. There is no time-sharing, so CPU steal time stays at zero. Sustained workloads like databases or game servers see consistent performance, and the NVMe RAID-10 keeps I/O latency low.
Can I move up a plan later?
Yes. Upgrading CPU and RAM requires a short reboot, and disk grows online. The process is self-service from the panel. Starting small is fine, but remember that moving down a tier requires a rebuild rather than a live migration.
