when drivers die?
I had one of my servers crash daily and so I booted into their rescue mode to test all hardware (4 hrs downtime), which came back with passes for all tests, but I noticed the ram test hadn't checked all the ram. I reported this and within 15 mins they had replaced all the ram in the server.
I also am booted from their netboot kernel 64bit,1000MHz and tests on local kernel and with the netboot kernel (simply the 1000Mhz difference) dropped server load from ~0.8 to 0.05.

I would give it some more time since their paths to the US are great for me - I had this discussion in another thread with a rep from yellowfiber and showed traceroutes and even offered up a test download file from LA and OVH. for most there was no diff in speed from both servers, but some US people got even better speeds on the oVH download.
